Java Program to Add two Numbers

In this tutorial, you will learn how to write a Java program to add two numbers. We will see three programs: In the first program, the values of the two numbers are given. In the second program, user is asked to enter the two numbers and the program calculates the sum of the input numbers. In the third program, we will calculate the sum of two non-integer numbers.

Example 1: Sum of two numbers

public class JavaExample {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    // two integer variables with values
    // and a variable "sum" to store the result
    int num1 = 5, num2 = 15,sum;

    //calculating the sum of num1 and num2 and
    //storing the result in the variable sum
    sum = num1+num2;

    //printing the result
    System.out.println("Sum of "+num1+" and "+num2+" is: "+sum);
  }
}

Output:

Sum of 5 and 15 is: 20

Example 2: Sum of two numbers using Scanner

The Scanner class provides the methods that allows us to read the user input. The values entered by user is read using Scanner class and stored in two variables num1 and num2. The program then calculates the sum of input numbers and displays it.

import java.util.Scanner;
public class AddTwoNumbers2 {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        
        int num1, num2, sum;
        Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.println("Enter First Number: ");
        num1 = sc.nextInt();
        
        System.out.println("Enter Second Number: ");
        num2 = sc.nextInt();
        
        sc.close();
        sum = num1 + num2;
        System.out.println("Sum of these numbers: "+sum);
    }
}

In this program, the statement Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in); creates an instance of Scanner class. This instance calls nextInt() method to read the number entered by user. The read values are stored in variables num1 and num2. Once the values are stored in variables. The addition is performed on these variables and result is displayed.
Output:

Enter First Number: 
121
Enter Second Number: 
19
Sum of these numbers: 140

Example 3: Program to add two non-integer numbers

In this example, we are calculating the sum of non-integer numbers. Here you can enter float numbers such as 10.5, 16.667 etc.

import java.util.Scanner;
public class JavaExample {

  public static void main(String[] args) {

    double num1, num2, sum;
    Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
    System.out.print("Enter First Number: ");
    num1 = sc.nextDouble();

    System.out.print("Enter Second Number: ");
    num2 = sc.nextDouble();

    sc.close();
    sum = num1 + num2;
    System.out.println("Sum of "+num1+" and "+num2+" is: "+sum);
  }
}

Output:
