Single number operator

Lesson 15 of 29 in Coddy's Calculator project using Python course.

As we saw before we handle special case when a single number operator, '+' or '-'.

This happen only when the list we get is of size 2!

Easy

Add support for single number operator in struct.

Try it yourself
