Understanding the Code: An Analogy
Building a calculator application in Java Swing is like assembling a complex puzzle. Each piece, whether a function or a user interface component, has its specific place and role. Think of the buttons you see on a calculator as puzzle pieces that need to be arranged correctly. Just like in a puzzle where you have to ensure pieces fit together correctly to form an image, in programming, you need to ensure that all components of your application work together to provide a seamless user experience.
