The easiest thing to do would be to put this in a loop and use 
the result as 'a'. This would not help with order of operations, 
but you can leave that to the user. Dumb, but much like a non-
scientific calculator.

Alan has already provided you with other options, but be warned
they are not beginner-level projects.
