Simple JavaScript Calculator Code - JavaScript Arithmetic
Write HTML Code For Simple JavaScript Calculator
Yesterday I revised the concept of HTML Forms and JavaScript. While revising I encountered a University question stating, "Q. Write A HTML Code To Make Simple Calculator Using Javascript Functions and HTML Forms. Calculator Must Take Any Two Numbers from User and Perform 5 Basic Arithmetic Operations i.e Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, Division and Modulo".
I gave it a try to write this small calculator application (using Javascript and HTML Forms) and managed to produce following working script. This Javascript application is very simple, necessarily commented and is easy to understand. I hope it may prove useful to those interested in learning javascript functions, hence feel like sharing. To understand more, How Javascript Works? I recommend you refer this JavaScript Tutorial.

<!-- Aim: Write HTML Code Using JavaScript Functions To Perform Basic Arithmetic Operations. -->
<!-- 1. Take Two numbers from user say 'Number 1' and 'Number 2'. -->
<!-- 2. Perform Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, Division and Modulus. -->
<!-- 3. Result must be displayed on same HTML Page when respective button is clicked. -->
<!-- 4. Use <input> tag (HTML Forms Concept) with onclick.-->
<!-- 5. Call individual Javascript Function, put them inside <head> tag only.-->
