Java Code:
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;

public class CLau2{

public static void main(String args[]){
String Firstnumber,Secondnumber,Thirdnumber,c;
int number1,number2,number3,addition,difference,multip lication;


ImageIcon welcome = new ImageIcon("C:\\DSE\\welcome.gif");
ImageIcon wrong = new ImageIcon("C:\\DSE\\wrong.gif");
ImageIcon smily = new ImageIcon("C:\\DSE\\smily.gif");
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"Start the Lau Calculator System","Calculator System",JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE, welcome);

Firstnumber = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter First Number.");
Secondnumber = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter Second Number.");
Thirdnumber = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter Third Number.");


number1 = Integer.parseInt(Firstnumber);
number2 = Integer.parseInt(Secondnumber);
number3 = Integer.parseInt(Thirdnumber);

c=JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Calculator System"+"\n"+"[A] Addition"+"\n"+"[B] Difference"
+"\n"+"[C] Multiplication"+"\n"+"[D] Odd/Even Number");

if (c.equals("A")||c.equals("a")){
addition = number1+number2+number3;
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"The sum of 3 numbers is "+addition,"Sum",JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE,s mily);
}else if(c.equals("B")||c.equals("b")){
difference=number1-number2-number3;
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"The difference of 3 numbers is "+difference,"Difference",JOptionPane.INFORMATION_ MESSAGE,smily);
}else if(c.equals("C")||c.equals("c")){
multiplication=number1*number2*number3;
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"The multiplication of 3 numbers is "+multiplication,"Multiplication",JOptionPane.INFO RMATION_MESSAGE,smily);
}else if(c.equals("D")||c.equals("d")){
if((number1%2)==0){
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "First number is an even number.","Even",JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE,sm ily);
}else{
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "First number is an odd number.","Odd",JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE,smi ly);
}
if((number2%2)==0){
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Second number is an even number.","Even",JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE,sm ily);
}else{
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Second number is an odd number.","Odd",JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE,smi ly);

Error code example:

symbol: class ImageIcon
location: class CLau2
CLau2.java:11 error: cannot find symbol
ImageIcon wrong = new ImageIcon ("C:\\DSE\\smily.gif");

A stupid question, I know, but do you import the ImageIcon class?

Also, welcome to our forum! Please when posting code, try to use [code] [/code]tags so that your code retains its formatting and is readable.
