Need some help on both these (separate projects)

1. How do i ask for a word input then store it?


2. How would i make a basic calculator gui, I can never get the jpanel buttons to work.

1.

java.util.Scanner scanner = new java.util.Scanner(System.in);

System.out.println("Enter some text.");
String userInput = scanner.next();

2.

This is just putting a button on the form, I'm not going to make a calculator, but from that you should be able to figure it out. Also you can play around with the size values.

import java.awt.event.*;

import javax.swing.*;

public class stuff extends JFrame
{
	public static void main(String[] args)
	{
		GUI g = new GUI();
	}
}

class GUI extends JFrame
{
	private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

	public GUI()
	{ 
        setTitle("Sick Calculator"); 
        setSize(150, 150); 
        setLayout(null);
        setResizable(false); 
        setVisible(true); 
        setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); 
        
        JButton button = new JButton("MY TEXT");
        button.setLocation(20, 20);
        button.setSize(100, 20);
        ButtonClickHandler bch = new ButtonClickHandler();
        button.addActionListener(bch);
        this.add(button);
    } 
	
	class ButtonClickHandler implements ActionListener
	{
		public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent arg0)
		{
			JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "THIS IS A MESSAGE BOX");
		}
	}
}
