Thread: simple basic calculator

am trying to make a simple calculator but i really want something more than this ,here is my code :

package revolution;

import java.util.Scanner;


public class simplecalculator {

public static void main(String[] args){
int x , y ,result = 0 ;
char c;

Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);

//gather user inputs

System.out.print("ENTER NO.: ");
x = input.nextInt();

System.out.print("enter operator: ");
String st = input.next();
c = st.charAt(0);





System.out.print("ENTER NO.: ");
y = input.nextInt();


switch(c){

case'+':
result = x + y;
System.out.print("SUM: "+result);
break;

case'-':
result = x - y ;
System.out.print("DIFFERENCE: "+result);
break;

case '*':
result = x*y;
System.out.print("MULTIPLE: "+result);
break;

case '/':
result = x/y;
if(y == 0){
System.out.print("ERRORIVISION BY ZERO");
}else{

System.out.print("DIVISION: "+result);

}
break;

default:
System.out.print("SYNTAX ERROR");







}





}




}
any one with much more better idea than this ..........would be happy to share

try to do the process continuously, like after the first operation, ask again the user whether he/she wants to do another operation.

or
create a GUI for you calculator. that would be a challenging one
