Simple Calculator with User Input
Svep för att visa menyn
Building a simple calculator is a practical way to reinforce your understanding of user input in Java. By using the Scanner class, you can prompt users for numbers and an operation, then perform calculations based on their input. This approach not only makes your program interactive but also demonstrates how to process different types of data entered by users.

This calculator program begins by creating a Scanner object to read user input. It prompts the user to enter two numbers, which are read as double values to support both integers and decimals. Next, it asks for an operation symbol (+, -, *, or /). The program uses a switch statement to determine which calculation to perform based on the user's input. If the operation is division, it checks for division by zero to prevent errors. After performing the calculation, the result is printed. If the user enters an invalid operation or attempts to divide by zero, the program displays an appropriate error message. Finally, the Scanner is closed to release system resources.
