Question

All the functions on the calculator work fine, but after I hit equal for say 6+6= and then my result shows to be 12. When I press 2 or any other number I want to clear the input of 12 or whatever the last calculation was and start a new calculation. Can anyone help me on this?

Answer 1

Looking at you code, it will be a bit messy but when hitting equals set a variable to true

newCalc = true;

When catching the input if (newCalc) {$("#clear).trigger (); newCalc = false}

Answer 2

Here's an easier way to do it, where you don't have to edit every button. Just use this as the handler for your = key:

comp.click(function () {
    Input.val(eval(Input.val()));
    $('input:button').one('click', function newOp(e) {
        if (/\d/.test(this.value)){
            Input.val(this.value);
        }
        $('input:button').off('click', newOp);
    });
});

Not the best way to do it, certainly, but it works.
