Simple Actionscript 3.0 Calculator: Flash Tutorial!

This is the eBook version of the printed book. If the print book includes a CD-ROM, this content is not included within the eBook version. Anyone with moderate Macromedia Flash experience who is looking to acquire or improve their understanding of ActionScript will find this book a valuable resource. Author Gary Rosenzweig is highly respected in the Macromedia community and pioneered the use of advanced programming techniques in Macromedia Flash. For this edition, he has updated the games from the previous edition and has added several new projects. Each chapter studies and then deconstructs a new type of game or gadget such as hunt and click games, catch and avoid games, or action and adventure games and the CD contains the project source code.

Provides information on using ActionScript 2.0 to create a variety of applications.

I'm not new to Flash development but I AM new to ActionScript 3.0. Even for the games I may have coded in AS 2.0, there is tremendous value in seeing them revised for Flash's new language. As for the others - wow. So many opportunities to grow as a developer from these examples. Bonus - I love Gary's conversational style of writing. I feel like he's right there mentoring me while I'm working through the code and the logic behind it. Thank you so very much - this is exactly what I was looking for. ...
I recommend this book if you are moving from AS2 to AS3, even if you are not interested in writing games. Gary does not claim it is suitable for beginners without any programming experience but it is more suitable than Moock's "Essential ActionScript 3.0" (which does make such a claim). However it is not for web designers that don't want to learn programming and it is not for advanced programmers that appreciate Moock's AS3 book.

Check this video out at Hi-Res here: http://www.tutvid.com/tutorial... this video we will start with a blank flash document and build using flash drawing tools and lots of actionscript a simple functioning calculator which performs Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, and Division. Have fun with this one and learn lots of Actionscript 3.0!

Part 2- On the actions layer I put:r_input.restrict = "0-9" l_input.restrict = "0-9"on the operators btns (I take the plus btn as example, for the other btns (except =) just change the operator sign:on (release){this.sign_txt.text = "+";}on the equals btn write:

Part 1-Nice video. I notice an easier way to make the calculator works using the same symbols as in the video: first the instance name I used:left input - l_inputright input - r_inputwhere the operator appears - sign_txtwhere the result appears - result_txtthe buttons dont need name.
