How can I Resize the BUTTONS?
It won't run because of

public class Calc extends JFrame implements ActionListener

Help.
Thanks :icon_confused:

Replace

// frame.setSize(200, 200);
        frame.pack();

now debug program.
why you have so much space?

What do you mean it won't run because of "public class Calc extends JFrame implements ActionListener"? It looks to me like that is a correct class header, although I haven't written a Java program in awhile. What is the error message the compiler is giving you?

Also, you declared your class as extending JFrame, but then you have a JFrame variable and the first line in the constructor is "frame=new JFrame("Calculator");" That means that the Object itself is-a JFrame, but it also has-a JFrame. In other words, "Calc" itself is a JFrame (because it extends JFrame), but then you created another JFrame (with your frame variable). So you have two JFrames - you can get rid of the variable "frame".

If neither of those two explanations made sense, try deleting your frame variable, and wherever it says "frame.anything", replace the "frame" with "this".
