  Standard Calculator

Inspiration

I wanted to practice windows form applications and this was a great opportunity for it.

What it does

Maths

How I built it

I used Visual Studio Windows Form template and I started building the application myself with C#.

Challenges we ran into

I had to check windows calculator many times as I was not sure of some behaviours of the calculator.

It was interesting to see what happens if you click = after you click sqrt() button after calculations. For example, open your windows native calculator (not mine) and do

5x5

Click = button

Result: 25

Click sqrt() button

*Result: 5

then click = button again

Result?

I was hoping to see 5 again but it multiplies the last number so result was 25.

That only happens if you made calculations before doing sqrt(), if we type directly the result of the calculations.

Type

25

Click sqrt() button

*Result: 5

then click = button

Result?

In this case the result is 5 every time you press = button.

I do not know why but that is how it is programmed.

In my calculator both procedures are equals to 5.

Accomplishments that I am proud of

Make this calculator without calculator examples programs on the Internet

What I learned
