Android calculator with button click
- by rynwtts
I am trying to calculate a field named lblAnswer by adding values txtA + txtB. I am fairly new to the android development world and would like to know what is the best way of going about this. I have already added the necessarily edit fields to the GUI. I am now working in the java file to try and create the method. This method has been named doCalc. Here is what I have thus far.
public void doCalc()
{
lblAnswer = txtA + txtB;
}
It has been suggested that I add more code here is the full code. Thank you for that suggestion.
Here is the Java File.
package com.example.wattsprofessional;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.Menu;
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
}
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.activity_main, menu);
return true;
}
public void doCalc()
{
lblAnswer = txtA + txtB;
Double.parseDouble(txtA.getText().toString());
lblAnswer.setText"t
}
and here is the xml file.
