            break;

        case '-':
            printf("%.1lf - %.1lf = %.1lf",firstNumber, secondNumber, firstNumber - secondNumber);
            break;

        case '*':
            printf("%.1lf * %.1lf = %.1lf",firstNumber, secondNumber, firstNumber * secondNumber);
            break;

        case '/':
            printf("%.1lf / %.1lf = %.1lf",firstNumber, secondNumber, firstNumber / secondNumber);
            break;

        // operator doesn't match any case constant (+, -, *, /)
        default:
            printf("Error! operator is not correct");
    }
