So, right now I'm trying to build a calculator in Java, I have the GUI built, but I cannot find a way to take the text from the pane and do that necessary math on it. Example The text pane says
1 + 2
I want to be able to press a button and calculates it and do the math and display it as
1 + 2 = 3
I've tried taking the text and using the parseInt, parseFloat, and parseDouble. Every time I try to take the text and turn it into an Int, Double, or Float I get an error. The error says
"Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "1 + 1""
Any ideas on what I could to make it work
