How to run

Option 1: Run from source code

1. Clone the repository.
2. Open the folder in your IDE (I use IntelliJ).
3. Run the 'MainApplication.java' file.

Option 2: Run JAR

1. Download the 'basicCalculator.jar' file.
2. Run it using the below command in the folder that contains the JAR file (replace your path in):

java --module-path "C:\Program Files(where SDK is saved)\lib" --add-modules javafx.controls,javafx.fxml -jar basicCalculator.jar

• For example my command is:
