INTRODUCTION
HTML
HTML is a widely used general-purpose, high level programming language. It was initially
designed by Guido van Rossum in 1991 and developed by HTML Software Foundation. It was
mainly developed for emphasis on code readability, and its syntax allows programmers to
express concepts in fewer lines of code.
HTML is a programming language that lets you work quickly and integrate systems more
efficiently.
HTML is a high-level, interpreted, interactive and object-oriented scripting language. HTML is
designed to be highly readable. It uses English keywords frequently where as other languages
use punctuation, and it has fewer syntactical constructions than other languages.
HTML is Interpreted − HTML is processed at runtime by the interpreter. You do not
need to compile your program before executing it. This is similar to PERL and PHP.
HTML is Interactive − You can actually sit at a HTML prompt and interact with the
interpreter directly to write your programs.
HTML is Object-Oriented − HTML supports Object-Oriented style or technique of
programming that encapsulates code within objects.
HTML is a Beginner's Language − HTML is a great language for the beginner-level
programmers and supports the development of a wide range of applications from simple text
processing to WWW browsers to games.

History of HTML
HTML was developed by Guido van Rossum in the late eighties and early nineties at the
National Research Institute for Mathematics and Computer Science in the Netherlands.
HTML is derived from many other languages, including ABC, Modula-3, C, C++, Algol-68,
SmallTalk, and Unix shell and other scripting languages.
HTML is copyrighted. Like Perl, HTML source code is now available under the GNU General
Public License (GPL).
HTML is now maintained by a core development team at the institute, although Guido van
Rossum still holds a vital role in directing its progress.
HTML Features
Easy-to-learn − HTML has few keywords, simple structure, and a clearly definedsyntax.
This allows the student to pick up the language quickly.
Easy-to-read − HTML code is more clearly defined and visible to the eyes.
A broad standard library − HTML's bulk of the library is very portable and cross-
platform compatible on UNIX, Windows, and Macintosh.
Interactive Mode − HTML has support for an interactive mode which allows interactive
testing and debugging of snippets of code.
Portable − HTML can run on a wide variety of hardware platforms and has the same
interface on all platforms.
Extendable − You can add low-level modules to the HTML interpreter. These modules
enable programmers to add to or customize their tools to be more efficient.
Databases − HTML provides interfaces to all major commercial databases.
GUI Programming − HTML supports GUI applications that can be created and ported
to many system calls, libraries and windows systems, such as Windows MFC, Macintosh, and
the X Window system of Unix.
Page 3
Scalable − HTML provides a better structure and support for large programs than shell
scripting.
Apart from the above-mentioned features, HTML has a big list of good features, few are listed
below −
It supports functional and structured programming methods as well as OOP.
It can be easily integrated with C, C++, COM, ActiveX, CORBA, and Java.
Tkinter − Tkinter is the HTML interface to the Tk GUI toolkit shipped with HTML. We
would look this option in this chapter.
wxHTML − This is an open-source HTML interface for
wxWindows http://wxHTML.org.
JHTML − JHTML is a HTML port for Java which gives HTML scripts seamless access
to Java class libraries on the local machine http://www.jython.org.
There are many other interfaces available, which you can find them on the net.
Tkinter
Tkinter is the standard GUI library for HTML. HTML when combined with Tkinter provides a
fast and easy way to create GUI applications. Tkinter provides a powerful object-oriented
interface to the Tk GUI toolkit.
Creating a GUI application using Tkinter is an easy task. All you need to do is perform the
following steps −
Import the Tkinter module.
Page 4
Create the GUI application main window.
Enter the main event loop to take action against each event triggered by the user.
Page 5
Tkinter Widgets
Tkinter provides various controls, such as buttons, labels and text boxes used in a GUI
application. These controls are commonly called widgets.
There are currently 15 types of widgets in Tkinter. We present these widgets as well as a brief
description in the following table −
1 Button
2 Canvas
The Canvas widget is used to draw shapes, such as lines, ovals, polygons and
rectangles, in your application.
3 Checkbutton
The Checkbutton widget is used to display a number of options as checkboxes.
The user can select multiple options at a time.
4 Entry
The Entry widget is used to display a single-line text field for accepting values
from a user.
5 Frame
6 Label
The Label widget is used to provide a single-line caption for other widgets. It can
also contain images.
7 Listbox
Page 6
8 Menubutton
9 Menu
The Menu widget is used to provide various commands to a user. These
commands are contained inside Menubutton.
10 Message
The Message widget is used to display multiline text fields for accepting values
from a user.
11 Radiobutton
The Radiobutton widget is used to display a number of options as radio buttons.
The user can select only one option at a time.
12 Scale
13 Scrollbar
The Scrollbar widget is used to add scrolling capability to various widgets, such as
list boxes.
14 Text
15 Toplevel
16 Spinbox
The Spinbox widget is a variant of the standard Tkinter Entry widget, which can
be used to select from a fixed number of values.
17 PanedWindow
18 LabelFrame
A labelframe is a simple container widget. Its primary purpose is to act as a spacer
or container for complex window layouts.
19 tkMessageBox
Geometry Management
All Tkinter widgets have access to specific geometry management methods, which have the
purpose of organizing widgets throughout the parent widget area. Tkinter exposes the following
geometry manager classes: pack, grid, and place.
The pack() Method − This geometry manager organizes widgets in blocks before placing
them in the parent widget.
The grid() Method − This geometry manager organizes widgets in a table-like structure
in the parent widget.
The place() Method − This geometry manager organizes widgets by placing them in a
specific position in the parent widget.

IMPLEMENTATION
1. Purpose:
Determine What Tasks You Need The Calculator For, Such As Basic Arithmetic, Scientific Calculations,
Financial Calculations, Or Graphing.
2. Features:
Look For Features That Match Your Needs, Such As Memory Functions, Unit Conversions, Trigonometric
Functions, Statistical Analysis, Or Programming Functions.
3. Display:
Consider The Size And Clarity Of The Display, Whether It Is A Basic LCD Or A High-Resolution Color
Screen.
4. Keypad:
Check The Layout And Size Of The Keypad, Whether It Has A Comfortable Key Press And Whether It Is
User-Friendly.
5. Power Source:
Decide Whether You Want A Battery-Powered Or Solar-Powered Calculator, Or One That Can Be
Plugged In.
Page 9
Consider The Size And Weight Of The Calculator, Whether It Is Easy To Carry Around, And Whether It
Fits Your Needs.
Choose a reputable brand that offers good customer support and warranty, and compare prices to find the
best value for your budget.
These are some of the factors to consider when choosing a calculator. Depending on your needs and
preferences, you might prioritize certain features or brands over others.
2.2 HERE ARE THE BASIC STEPS FOR IMPLEMENTING A CALCULATOR PROGRAM
USING HTML:
Depending on the requirements of your program, you might need to use different data types to represent
numbers, operators, and other variables. For example, you might use integers for whole numbers, doubles
for decimal numbers, and characters for operators.
The program should prompt the user to enter the numbers and operators they want to use in their
calculation. You can use the scanf function to read user input from the console.
The program should parse the user input to identify the numbers and operators. You can use string
manipulation functions to split the input into substrings, and then convert the substrings to the appropriate
data types.
Page 10
The program should perform the calculation based on the operator and numbers entered by the user. You
can use conditional statements (if-else) or switch statements to determine which operation to perform, and
then use arithmetic operators to calculate the result.
The program should display the result of the calculation to the user. You can use the printf function to
format and print the result to the console.
6. Repeat or exit:
Depending on the requirements of your program, you might need to ask the user if they want to perform
another calculation or exit the program. You can use a loop (while or do-while) to repeat the program until
the user chooses to exit.
These are the basic steps for implementing a calculator program using C. Depending on the complexity of
your program, you might need to add more features or error handling to make it more robust and user-
friendly.
2.3 HERE ARE THE BASIC STEPS FOR IMPLEMENTING A CALCULATOR PROGRAM
USING HTML:
Depending on the requirements of your program, you might need to use different data types to represent
numbers, operators, and other variables. For example, you might use integers for whole numbers, doubles
for decimal numbers, and characters for operators.
The program should prompt the user to enter the numbers and operators they want to use in their
calculation. You can use the scanf function to read user input from the console.

manipulation functions to split the input into substrings, and then convert the substrings to the appropriate
data types.
The program should perform the calculation based on the operator and numbers entered by the user. You
can use conditional statements (if-else) or switch statements to determine which operation to perform, and
then use arithmetic operators to calculate the result.
The program should display the result of the calculation to the user. You can use the printf function to

another calculation or exit the program. You can use a loop (while or do-while) to repeat the program until
the user chooses to exit.
These are the basic steps for implementing a calculator program using C. Depending on the complexity of
your program, you might need to add more features or error handling to make it more robust and user-
friendly.
2.4 HERE ARE SOME BASIC FUNCTIONS THAT YOU CAN IMPLEMENT IN A
CALCULATOR PROGRAM USING HTML:
Page 12
1. Addition: The program should be able to add two or more numbers together and return the result.
2. Subtraction: The program should be able to subtract one number from another and return the result.
3. Multiplication: The program should be able to multiply two or more numbers together and return the
result.
4. Division: The program should be able to divide one number by another and return the result.
5. Square root: The program should be able to calculate the square root of a number and return the result.
6. Exponentiation: The program should be able to raise a number to a power and return the result.
7. Trigonometric functions: The program should be able to calculate the sine, cosine, and tangent of an
angle (in radians or degrees) and return the result.
8. Memory functions: The program should be able to store a number in memory, recall it later, and clear
the memory.
10. Error handling: The program should be able to detect and report any errors or invalid inputs, such as
division by zero or square root of a negative number.
These are just some of the basic functions that you can implement in a calculator program using C.
Depending on the requirements and complexity of your program, you might need to add more functions or
features.

machine just four hundred years ago, as a youth of nineteen. He was spurred to it by sharing the
burden of arithmetical labor involved in his father's official work as supervisor of taxes at Rouen.
He conceived the idea of doing the work mechanically, and developed a design appropriate for this
purpose; showing herein the same combination of pure science and mechanical genius that
characterized his whole life. But it was one thing to conceive and design the machine, and another
to get it made and put into use. Here were needed those practical gifts that he displayed later in his
inventions....
11. In a sense, Pascal's invention was premature, in that the mechanical arts in his time were not
sufficiently advanced to enable his machine to be made at an economic price, with the accuracy and
strength needed for reasonably long use. This difficulty was not overcome until well on into the
nineteenth century, by which time also a renewed stimulus to invention was given by the need for
many kinds of calculation more intricate than those considered by Pascal."
