    <p>I'm doing a program that presents the student with a math quiz. I am having trouble figuring out how to take the input problem type and turning that string into the arithmetic operator. Here is the method for that part of the code. Please and thanks!</p> <pre><code>public static String getUserChoice(String choice) { Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in); System.out.println("Please enter the symbol that corresponds to one of the following problems\n" + "Addition (+)\n Subtraction (-)\n or Multiplication (*): "); choice = in.next(); if ("+".equals(choice)){ return +; } } return choice; </code></pre> <p><strong>Update</strong> Here's the entire code if it helps see what I am doing.</p> <pre><code> public static void main(String[] args) { int digit = 0; int random = 0; String result1 = getUserChoice(""); digit = getNumberofDigit1(digit); int number1 = getRandomNumber1(digit); int number2 = getRandomNumber2(digit); System.out.println(number1 + result1 + number2); getCorrectAnswer(number1, result1, number2); } public static String getUserChoice(String choice) { Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in); System.out.println("Please enter the symbol that corresponds to one of the following problems\n" + "Addition (+)\n Subtraction (-)\n or Multiplication (*): "); choice = in.next(); return choice; } public static int getNumberofDigit1(int digit) { Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in); System.out.println("Enter a 1 for problems with one digit, or a 2 for two-digit problems: "); digit = in.nextInt(); return digit; } public static int getRandomNumber1(int numbers) { int random = 0; if (numbers == 1) { random = (int) (1 + Math.random() * 9); } else if (numbers == 2) { random = (int) (10 + Math.random() * 90); } return random; } public static int getRandomNumber2(int numbers) { int random2 = 0; if (numbers == 1) { random2 = (int) (1 + Math.random() * 9); } else if (numbers == 2) { random2 = (int) (10 + Math.random() * 90); } return random2; } public static void getCorrectAnswer(int number1, String result1, int number2) { } public static void getUserAnswer() { Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in); } public static void CheckandDisplayResult() { } </code></pre>

    1. COWhat do you want to do? If you have `someNumber1` and `someNumber2`, and you want to sum them, `if("+".equals(choice)) { return (someNumber1 + someNumber2); }`

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
