+# TEST & VERIFY
+# ✓ The program adds numbers with both add and +.
+# ✓ The program subtracts numbers with both subtract and -.
+# ✓ The program multiply numbers with both multiply and *.
+# ✓ The program divides numbers with both divide and /.
+# ✓ The program handles divide when attempting to divide by zero.
+# ✓ The program handles erroneous input. For example the user might enter clown when asked to enter a number.
+# ✓ The program also needs to handle erroneous operators.
+
+#OPTIONAL ENHANCEMENTS
+
+# ✓ Print out the formula in addition to the result, i.e. 2 + 2 = 4
+# (Pass) Add support for computing exponents (2^4 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 = 16).
+# (Pass) Add support for the modulo operator (10 % 3 = 1).
+# ✓ Gracefully handle unexpected user input:
+# (Pass) What happens if the user input is nil (i.e., the user just pressed enter)?
+# ✓ What happens if the user tries to add hotdog to elephant?
