A very nice approach to the task.
Well done.

this code block looks redundant.
You can try cast the input in line 36.

here is a cleaner approach that eliminates the while loop and provides better error handling

def get_number(position, max_trials=5):
for _ in range(max_trials):
try:
number = float(input(f"Enter the {position}: "))
return number
except ValueError:
print("Invalid input. Please enter a valid number.")
print(f"{max_trials} Trials Exceeded! Program Ended.")
return None

Thanks! I will make the corrections right away.

The code stops after every succesful execution which is alittle less effective.

You can ask if the user wants to continue or do another calculation, if yes...the program re-runs, if no, the program stops.

here is a basic approach to it ,
def main():
cont = True
while cont:
first_number = get_number("first number")
if first_number is None:
return

    second_number = get_number("second number")
    if second_number is None:
        return

    operation, symbol = get_operation()

    result = execute(operation, first_number, second_number)
    print(f"Result: {first_number} {symbol} {second_number} = {result}")
    cont_input = input("Would you like to perform another operation? yes or y to continue and no or n to stop :")
    if cont_input == "yes" or cont_input == "y":
        continue
    else:
        print("Have a great day")
        cont = False
