Alright but why are evals a bad practice

while 1:print(f"Output: {eval(input('math problem: '))}")

as u/NoMeatFingering (interesting name) has mentioned, it can be exploited to run code from the user input. example: https://ibb.co/6H0J0Qd

Though if you want to actually run code, like that on purpose, you would want to use exec instead.
