JFrame Calculator

[kayleigh0411]

I am trying to make a calculator, but I can not seem to figure out how to get the = operation to work.
Everything else seems to be working fine, but I am just really struggling with the =.
Any guidance in the right direction would be super helpful!

Thenumbers are normally handled like you are, but when you get an operator you parse and store the previous number then make a note of the operator. Then when the next number is complete (signified by another operator or =) you can parse the seocnd number and do the arithmetic.
That's probably not clear (!)
What you need to do is turn off the computer and sit with some paper and a pen. Run through a number of test cases, writing down what you need to get the answer as you go. That way you will come to understand what needs to be strored and when to use it. Then you can go back to the program and complete it. This is ESSENTIAL. you MUST understand how the process works BEFORE you write the program.

Example:
Input is 12+10/2= (expected answer 11)
start with an empty string
1 append to the string
2 append to the string
+ parse the string, save the resulting number, clear the string, remember the +
1 append to the string
0 append to the string
/ parse and clear the string, recall the +, add the parsed value to the resulting number, forget the +, remember the /
2 append to the string
= parse and clear the string, recall the /, divide the result by the parsed value
