Question

I am having a problem getting the value in the editText of my program. I set the value in a textView so that I can see if the code gets it. But unfortunately it displays something like this:

android.widget.EditText@410e5a58 -> the number after @ sign changes every run in the emulator

Why this happens? This is my code:

package com.example.ITax;

import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.TextView;

Answer 1

use netSalary instead of net_salary

td = String.valueOf(netSalary);

As you are passing the edit text instead of the double variable
