Transfer data between Activitys

Today I finish the test I met at previous job interview: achieve a additon program. A simple program, only use 3 TextView, 2 Button and 2 EditView. But I got stuck in getting the results. Well now I know what problem is, the truth is that I can't get EditView's data while I don't konw wether it has been writen data in. 

Wrong code:

JiaShu = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.editText2);

float J = Float.valueOf(JiaShu.getText().toString());//Sentence 1

To make this available, make a empty judgement is good.

if(!TextUtils.isEmpty(JiaShu.getText())){//Then do sentence 1}  

A little summary:

1. Using Bundle

Code:

Intent backIntent = new Intent();

Bundle myBundle = new Bundle();

final float sum = Float.valueOf(beijiashu)+Float.valueOf(JiaShu.getText().toString());

myBundle.putString("sum",String.valueOf(sum));

backIntent.putExtras(myBundle);

2. Launch a specific Activity and returns the result

Using startActivityForResult(Intent intent, Int int) instead of startAcitvity(Intent intent),Then Override onActivityResult(...):

//In Acitvity A

@Override

protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {

super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);

//REQUESTCODE is the Int arg in startActivityForResult(Intent intent, Int int)

if(requestCode==REQUESTCODE){

//resultCode is set in other Activities, use to response different actions

if(resultCode==1){

Beijiashu.setText("");

Bundle bundle = data.getExtras();

String result = bundle.getString("sum");//get the sum from Activity B

myTextView.setText("The sum is："+result);

}

}

}
//In Activity B

//In button's click response

Intent intent = new Intent();

setResult(1,intent);//1 means resultsCode's value

finish();//kill this Activity

3. Some tips

When difine a global var(static), always ues key word final to make it unchangeable.

When difine Widgets or Text Fields, always difine it at the first line of the main class, like:

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

private TextView myTextView;

private EditText Beijiashu;
