Hello everyone my first question on stack overflow
import javax.swing.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class TI extends JFrame implements ActionListener
{
static int count=0;
String ct;
JTextField word;
JTextArea tohide;
public static void main(String arg[])
{
TI ti=new TI();
}
public TI()
{
JPanel j=new JPanel();
JLabel def=new JLabel("Enter the text to be encrypted");
word=new JTextField("",20);
tohide=new JTextArea("",5,20);
JButton jb=new JButton("COUNT");
tohide.setBorder(BorderFactory.createLoweredBevelBorder());
j.add(def);
j.add(tohide);
j.add(word);
j.add(jb);
add(j);
setSize(500,500);
setVisible(true);
setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
setLocationRelativeTo(null);
jb.addActionListener(this);
}
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae)
{
String txt=tohide.getText();
StringTokenizer stk=new StringTokenizer(txt," ");
while(stk.hasMoreTokens())
{
String token=stk.nextToken();
count++;
}
ct=Integer.toString(count);;
word.setText(ct);
}
}
I want to count the number of words that are being typed in the textarea.There is a logical error.As I keep clicking the count button the word count increases.
