Calculator Using HTML,CSS & JavaScript With Source Code

Welcome to Code With Random blog. This blog teaches us how to create a Calculator Using Html, Css, and JavaScript Code. We use HTML to create the Layout Of the Calculator and use Css for the Styling Calculator and Use JavaScript for the Calculation in our calculator project.

I hope you enjoy our blog so let's start with a basic HTML structure for the Calculator.

HTML Code For Calculator

<div class="calculator">
  <div class="input" id="input"></div>
  <div class="buttons">
    <div class="operators">
      <div>+</div>
      <div>-</div>
      <div>&times;</div>
      <div>&divide;</div>
    </div>
    <div class="leftPanel">
      <div class="numbers">
        <div>7</div>
        <div>8</div>
        <div>9</div>
      </div>
      <div class="numbers">
        <div>4</div>
        <div>5</div>
        <div>6</div>
      </div>
      <div class="numbers">
        <div>1</div>
        <div>2</div>
        <div>3</div>
      </div>
      <div class="numbers">
        <div>0</div>
        <div>.</div>
        <div id="clear">C</div>
      </div>
    </div>
    <div class="equal" id="result">=</div>
  </div>
</div>

There is all the HTML Code for the Calculator Project. Now, you can see output without Css and JavaScript. Then we write Css and JavaScript for the Calculator Project.

JavaScript Code For Calculator

  resultDisplayed = false; // flag to keep an eye on what output is displayed

// adding click handlers to number buttons
for (var i = 0; i < number.length; i++) {

  var operators = inputString.replace(/[0-9]|\./g, "").split("");

  console.log(inputString);

  // now we are looping through the array and doing one operation at a time.
  // first divide, then multiply, then subtraction and then addition
  // as we move we are alterning the original numbers and operators array
  // the final element remaining in the array will be the output

Now that we have completed our Calculator. our updated output with Html, Css, and JavaScript. Hope you like the Calculator Project. you can see the output video and project screenshots. See our other blogs and gain knowledge in front-end development.

Thank you!

This post teaches us how to create a Calculator Using HTML, CSS, And JavaScript. If we made a mistake or any confusion, please drop a comment to reply or help you in easy learning.
