how to program a simple calculator in java code example

Example 1: calculator program in java

import java.util.Scanner;
public class Calculator {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      double num1;
      double num2;
      double ans;
      char op;
      Scanner reader = new Scanner(System.in);
      System.out.print("Enter two numbers: ");
      num1 = reader.nextDouble();
      num2 = reader.nextDouble();
      System.out.print("\nEnter an operator (+, -, *, /): ");
      op = reader.next().charAt(0);
      switch(op) {
         case '+': ans = num1 + num2;
            break;
         case '-': ans = num1 - num2;
            break;
         case '*': ans = num1 * num2;
            break;
         case '/': ans = num1 / num2;
            break;
      default: System.out.printf("Error! Enter correct operator");
         return;
      }
      System.out.print("\nThe result is given as follows:\n");
      System.out.printf(num1 + " " + op + " " + num2 + " = " + ans);
   }
}

Example 2: simple calculator program in java

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Calculator {

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        Scanner reader = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.print("Enter two numbers: ");

        // nextDouble() reads the next double from the keyboard
        double first = reader.nextDouble();
        double second = reader.nextDouble();

        System.out.print("Enter an operator (+, -, *, /): ");
        char operator = reader.next().charAt(0);

        double result;

        switch(operator)
        {
            case '+':
                result = first + second;
                break;

            case '-':
                result = first - second;
                break;

            case '*':
                result = first * second;
                break;

            case '/':
                result = first / second;
                break;

            // operator doesn't match any case constant (+, -, *, /)
            default:
                System.out.printf("Error! operator is not correct");
                return;
        }

        System.out.printf("%.1f %c %.1f = %.1f", first, operator, second, result);
    }
