4. Write a program using JTextField to perform the addition of two numbers.

import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.event.*;

public class Add {


public static void main(String[] args) {
JFrame frame = new JFrame("Jamia Polytechnic");
frame.setSize(300, 200);
frame.setLayout(null);
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

JLabel label1 = new JLabel("Number 1:");


label1.setBounds(30, 20, 80, 30);
JTextField text1 = new JTextField();

text1.setBounds(120, 20, 100, 30);


JLabel label2 = new JLabel("Number 2:");
label2.setBounds(30, 60, 80, 30);
JTextField text2 = new JTextField();
text2.setBounds(120, 60, 100, 30);

JButton addButton = new JButton("Add");


addButton.setBounds(80, 100, 80, 30);

JLabel resultLabel = new JLabel("Result: ");


resultLabel.setBounds(30, 140, 200, 30);

addButton.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
int num1 = Integer.parseInt(text1.getText());
int num2 = Integer.parseInt(text2.getText());
int sum = num1 + num2;
resultLabel.setText("Result: " + sum);
}
});

frame.add(label1);
frame.add(text1);
frame.add(label2);
frame.add(text2);
frame.add(addButton);
frame.add(resultLabel);

frame.setVisible(true);
}
