Question

EditText ed1 = (EditText)findViewById( R.id.editText1 );

int a = Integer.parseInt( ed1.getText().toString() );

Does the above code get the input as numeric from the user and show it as a string?

My requirement is to get the input as integer and return as Strings. How do I do that?

Answer 1

EditText ed1=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.editText1);
String ed1Str = ed1.getText().toString().trim();
int a = Integer.parseInt(ed1Str);

Will make it available as an integer (int a) and as a string (String ed1Str)
