TextField Applet Adding Two Numbers


After validating user name and password using TextField in an application (application extends frame), let us rewrite the same program using applets but with a different functionality. We take two numbers from the user and display the sum of two numbers.

The following program comes with 3 text fields. In two text fields, user enters two numbers. In the third text field, the programmer displays their sum.

Applet Program. File Name: TwoNumbers.java

import java.applet.*;

public class TwoNumbers extends Applet implements ActionListener
{
   TextField firstNum, secondNum, resultNum;

   {                      
      setLayout(new GridLayout(3, 2, 10, 15));  
      setBackground(Color.cyan);

      firstNum = new TextField(15);
      secondNum = new TextField(15);
      resultNum = new TextField(15);

      secondNum.addActionListener(this);

      add(new Label("Enter First Number"));  add(firstNum);
      add(new Label("Enter Second Number")); add(secondNum);
      add(new Label("S U M"));               add(resultNum);
   }
   public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
   {                        
      String str1 = firstNum.getText();
      double fn = Double.parseDouble(str1);
      double sn = Double.parseDouble(secondNum.getText());

      resultNum.setText("Sum is " + (fn+sn));
   }

    Can you help me
    i want to create an applet prog. In which there are three texrfield for number1,number2,result, One button for display and one list in which all arithmatic operator. When i press only one time a display buttun then result will be show in result textfield.

    1. I got a ready made code for application. Just change to an applet.

      // a program that uses a combination of buttons and text fields.

      // to do arithmetic operations using buttons and displaying the result in text field.

    1. import java.awt.*;

    1. The code should be below
      import java.awt.*;
      import java.awt.event.*;
      public class SumDemo extends Frame implements ActionListener
      {
      Button sum,reset;
      Label l1,l2,l3;
      TextField t1,t2,t3;
      public SumDemo()
      {
      setTitle(“Button Example”);
      setSize(400,200);
      setVisible(true);
      addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter()
      {
      public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e)
      {
      System.exit(0);
      }
      });
      setLayout(new GridLayout(4,2,20,20));

      sum = new Button(“Add”);
      reset = new Button(“Reset”);
      l1 = new Label(“Enter the 1st number”);
      l2 = new Label(“Enter the 2nd number”);
      l3 = new Label(“Result”);
      t1 = new TextField(10);
      t2 = new TextField(10);
      t3 = new TextField(10);

      setBackground(Color.pink);
      t1.setBackground(new Color(200,200,200));
      t2.setBackground(new Color(200,200,200));
      t3.setBackground(new Color(200,200,200));
      t3.setEditable(false);

      sum.addActionListener(this);
      reset.addActionListener(this);

      add(l1);
      add(t1);
      add(l2);
      add(t2);
      add(l3);
      add(t3);
      add(sum);
      add(reset);
      }
      public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
      {
      String str = e.getActionCommand();
      if(str.equals(“Add”))
      {
      String s1 = t1.getText();
      String s2 = t2.getText();
      int n1 = Integer.parseInt(s1);
      int n2 = Integer.parseInt(s2);
      int n = n1 + n2;
      String s = String.valueOf(n);
      t3.setText(s);
      }
      else if(str.equals(“Reset”))
      {
      t1.setText(“”);
      t2.setText(“”);
      t3.setText(“”);
      }
      }
      public static void main(String args[])
      {
      new SumDemo();
      }
      }

  4. Excellent code..
    but still have a query???
    Hoe to put validations on the text feild,suppose if i enter string in the textfeild it should give error.but its not.plz reply

    1. Question must be more clear. I give some options.

      a) Suppose your enter a wrong character, like a special character or a digit which the password does not accept, it must give error immediately (not waiting for whole word). The easiest way is to use a dialog box here from Swing.

      b) Entering all the characters and then validate. etc, etc.
