Simple Android Calculator

From your code, it appears that both your operands are to be entered into the same TextView. First enter your first operand, then press any operator and then in the same TextView the second operand will go in. Moreover, each of the operands seem to be handled by individual buttons, so you just need to enter them by clicking on the buttons.

First, enter your first operand, click on an operator, then click on second operand, and then click on =. That should work fine for you.

I am trying to build a simple calculator. Following is the activity file:

double i1 , i2 , result=0;
boolean newValue = false;

@Override

Now the problem is that I'm not finding any way to receive and store the second operand from the user.
