Unable to accept integer value through EditText
<p>I have been trying to accept two values, 1) inpval2 and 2) rate, through EditText. I have used the Integer class and parseInt() method along with </p>

<p><code>android:digits="0123456789." 
 android:inputType="number"</code>
 attributes to convert accepted values as integers.</p>

<p>Here is the code:</p>

<pre><code>package kk.currency;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.EditText;

public class CurrencyActivity extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */

EditText inpval1;
EditText inpval2;
EditText rate;

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.main);
}

public void btnclick(View view)  {

        inpval1 = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.away);
        int v1 = Integer.parseInt(inpval1.getText().toString());

        inpval2 = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.home);
        int v2 = Integer.parseInt(inpval2.getText().toString());

        rate = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.rate);
        int r = Integer.parseInt(rate.getText().toString());  

        v1 = v2 * r;

    }

}
</code></pre>

<p>Now the problem is that when I click the button (onClick = "btnclick") the app stops working.</p>

<p>If I remove  </p>

<pre><code>int v1 = Integer.parseInt(inpval1.getText().toString());
int v2 = Integer.parseInt(inpval2.getText().toString());
int r = Integer.parseInt(rate.getText().toString());
</code></pre>

<p>the app does not crash upon the click of the button. </p>

<p>Here are the logcat errors:</p>
