Calculator Sample: Windows Forms Pocket Calculator

  • Artikel

The Calculator sample implements a simple pocket calculator using C++ and the .NET Framework Windows Forms classes. It demonstrates using .NET Framework classes to write a user-interface without the support of the resource editors, and illustrates the following concepts:

  • Working with forms, menus, edit fields, buttons, and icons for forms

  • Manipulating managed arrays

  • Using delegates/event handlers

  • Exception handling

  • Using enums

  • Conversions between the .NET Framework String, Double, and Char classes
