I just went through a java programming class that taught the basics of java. This is my first attempt at a scientific calculator thing! I spent a few hours on it and i was just looking for some pointers on what to improve on, although i plan on switching to C++ soonish because i think its better from what I've seen. (This is a huge work in progress, Its basically just concept right now, a lot of the math you can do is wrong. ive spent probaly 3 - 4 hours on it so far just figuring out small bugs and string manipulation)
Make a for loop for jButtons and have them each have a value of 0-9 and add buttons to your Calculator
I can't give you any feedback for improvement without looking at the source code. I recommend creating your own repository on ******, that way people that want to help and improve, can do so there.

c++ and java are 2 completely different languages. Saying c++ is a better language generally depends on what use you have for it.
Ay! Congrats on that first project, but I'm gonna throw you a quick challenge.
Learn about JButtons and the MouseEvent and change it to buttons that store what's pressed. :P
If you get stuck with that challenge, feel free to hmu on here or Skype: the9thman :P
Congrats! To add some complexity to the next project, try and use a third party service like Firebase (for online functionality). Or, if you want to use Java for mobile apps, start learning Android Dev! It's tedious, but rewarding Gl
