Simple calculation for user entered data in text box using Delphi

On this example just set following three events as shown here.

1) Form create event

procedure TForm1.FormCreate(Sender: TObject);
begin
  { Initialize the labels }
  Label6.Caption:='0.00';
  Label7.Caption:='0.00';
  Label8.Caption:='0.00';
 { Initialize the edit boxes }
  Edit1.Text:='0.00';
  Edit2.Text:='0.00';
end;


2) (Calculate button) on click event

procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
Var
  V1, V2, VSum, VSub, VMul : Variant;
begin
    { Variant type variables are very easy to use
    these can hold any data type. And the advantage
    is you can convert them into any data type easily }
    V1:=Edit1.Text;
    V2:=Edit2.Text;
    { function Real() convert the variant to a real no. }
    VSum:=Real(V1)+Real(V2);
    VSub:=Real(V1)-Real(V2);
    VMul:=Real(V1)*Real(V2);
    { Put the results back in labels . . . }
    Label6.Caption:=VSum;
    Label7.Caption:=VSub;
    Label8.Caption:=VMul;
end;


3) (Exit button) on click event.

procedure TForm1.Button2Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
   { Close the form }
   Close;
end;
