        // TODO add your handling code here:
           option = "/";

        num2 =  Integer.parseInt(txtTotal.getText());
        
        if(option.equals("+"))
            result = num1 + num2;
        
         if(option.equals("-"))
            result = num1 - num2;
         
         if(option.equals("*"))
            result = num1 * num2;
        
          if(option.equals("/"))
            result = num1 / num2;
