mycalculator/
│
├── mycalculator/
│ └── __init__.py # Package code
│ └── operations.py # Your logic
├── setup.py # Metadata
├── README.md # Project description
🔹 Step 2: Add some sample code in operations.py
# mycalculator/operations.py
def add(a, b):
return a + b
def subtract(a, b):
return a - b
🔹 Step 3: Create __init__.py
# mycalculator/__init__.py
from .operations import add, subtract
🔹 Step 4: Create setup.py
# setup.py
from setuptools import setup, find_packages

setup(
name='mycalculator',
version='0.1',
packages=find_packages(),
author='Gowtham SB',
description='A simple calculator package',
long_description=open('README.md').read(),
long_description_content_type='text/markdown',
classifiers=[
'Programming Language :: Python :: 3',
],
python_requires='>=3.6',
)
🔹 Step 5: Create README.md
# mycalculator
A simple calculator package with add and subtract.
🔹 Step 6: Build the package
Install build tool:
pip install build
Build the package:
python -m build
You'll get:
dist/
├── mycalculator-0.1.tar.gz

├── mycalculator-0.1-py3-none-any.whl
🔹 Step 7: Upload to PyPI
Install Twine:
pip install twine
Upload using Twine:
python -m twine upload dist/*
You’ll need a PyPI account and token or password.
Once Approved: Install Your Own Package
Anywhere in the world, people can now install your package:
pip install mycalculator
And use it:
python
from mycalculator import add
print(add(5, 3)) # Output: 8
