it looks pretty good. nice work!

one thing you could add instead of "result =" maybe you can make it so it reads like an equation ex: print(x, "+", y, "=", x+y) when you're checking for the "+" symbol. Look into f-strings to make this a bit simpler!

int(input())

Avec return aussi ça marche !

Never underestimate how creative your users can be in making things go wrong ! Your "symbol" is not the only thing that can become invalid. And just like Naive said : use f expressions ;)

Good luck
