Python: Check the priority of the four operators

Python Basic - 1: Exercise-15 with Solution

Write a Python program to check the priority of the four operators (+, -, *, /).

Sample Solution:

Python Code:

from collections import deque
import re

__operators__ = "+-/*"
__parenthesis__ = "()"
__priority__ = {
    '+': 0,
    '-': 0,
    '*': 1,
    '/': 1,
}

def test_higher_priority(operator1, operator2):
    return __priority__[operator1] >= __priority__[operator2]

print(test_higher_priority('*','-'))
print(test_higher_priority('+','-'))
print(test_higher_priority('+','*'))
print(test_higher_priority('+','/'))
print(test_higher_priority('*','/'))

Sample Output:

True
True
False
False
