无法在android中获得正确的输出

Question

I have been trying to take three inputs based on what I will identify the type of triangle, ie Equivalent, Isosceles or Scalene but it doesn't just seem to work. Kindly go easy on me as I am a newbie, help is appreciated in advance.

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.TextView;
import android.widget.Toast;

import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;

public class TriangleActivity extends AppCompatActivity {


    EditText et_x, et_y, et_z;
    Button btnCheck;
    TextView tvResult;


    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.triangle_activity);

        et_x = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.et_x);


        et_y = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.et_y);


        et_z = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.et_z);


        btnCheck = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn_check);

       // tvResult = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.tv_result);

    }


    public void checkResult(View view) {

//check if it's equivalent
        if(et_x == et_y && et_y == et_z)
        {
            Toast.makeText(this, "Equivalent.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        }
//check if it's Isosceles
        else if (et_x == et_y || et_x == et_z || et_y == et_z)
        {
            Toast.makeText(this, "Isosceles.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        }
//check if it's Scalene
        else if (et_x != et_y && et_x != et_z && et_y != et_z)
        {
            Toast.makeText(this, "Scalene", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        }
//check if it's none
        else
        {
            Toast.makeText(this, "Not a triangle.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        }

    }

}

And here is the xml file, can't figure out if the problem really lies here somehow or not.

Answer 1

you dont compare the inuts of the EditText. you compare the object

public void checkResult(View view) {

    //check if it's equivalent
            if(et_x.getText() == et_y.getText() && et_y.getText() == et_z.getText())
            {
                Toast.makeText(this, "Equivalent.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }
    //check if it's Isosceles
            else if (et_x.getText()== et_y.getText() || et_x.getText() == et_z.getText() || et_y.getText() == et_z.getText())
            {
                Toast.makeText(this, "Isosceles.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }
    //check if it's Scalene
            else if (et_x.getText() != et_y.getText() && et_x.getText() != et_z.getText() && et_y.getText() != et_z.getText())
            {
                Toast.makeText(this, "Scalene", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }
    //check if it's none
            else
            {
                Toast.makeText(this, "Not a triangle.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }

        }
