My Calculator
GUI and general programming
This week we will make a small calculator. It will feature a simple GUI and
recognize the four common arithmetics.

Since this is a rather small application, it is wise start with the GUI this time,
to have something to continue building the rest of the program on. Below is a suggested layout.
I have used the GUI editor of Netbeans this time, and will not publish that code. The GUI of the next
examples are programmed.

When the GUI is done, it is time for some action. Every button must have an ActionListener and there must be some
computing going on. Do not waste time on little details yet, but get the basic functions to work.

If you are still keen on making an advanced calculator, feel free to go head. Some suggestions for features:
sinus, co-sinus and tangent calculations, conversion between different radixes, memory buttons or evaluation of parenthesis.
