So I'm doing this calculator program and need the numbers, the operator used and the "=" sign to show up in the listbox so "1 + 1 = 2" should show up. I have the calculator working and can move items to the listbox, but can't figure out how to remember the button that was clicked to get the outcome and move it over also.
Option Explicit On
Option Strict On
Option Infer Off
Public Class Form1
Private Sub ButtonAdd_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles ButtonAdd.Click
Result.Text = CStr(Val(NumOne.Text) + Val(NumTwo.Text))
End Sub
Private Sub ButtonSub_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles ButtonSub.Click
Result.Text = CStr(Val(NumOne.Text) - Val(NumTwo.Text))
End Sub
Private Sub ButtonMul_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles ButtonMul.Click
Result.Text = CStr(Val(NumOne.Text) * Val(NumTwo.Text))
End Sub
Private Sub ButtonDiv_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles ButtonDiv.Click
Result.Text = CStr(Val(NumOne.Text) / Val(NumTwo.Text))
'outputs a message box telling the user to correct the division by 0, also displays a blank result box instead of NaN
If CDbl(NumTwo.Text) = Val(0) Then
Result.Text = ""
MessageBox.Show("You cannot divide by 0, please input another number")
End If
End Sub
Private Sub ButtonExit_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles ButtonExit.Click
Me.Close()
End Sub
Private Sub ButtonSave_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles ButtonSave.Click
ListBox1.Items.Add(NumOne.Text & NumTwo.Text & Result.Text)
End Sub
End Class
As far as you just need to store one character, you can rely on the
Tag
property ofListBox1
(basically, a black box where you can store anything you want). Sample code:
