How do I use parseInt to add two numbers?
<p>I'm supposed to use parseInt to add two numbers the user enters, then use my response object to send back the result and display output to the user.</p>

<p>For instance, if the user enters 2 and 3, the server should add these numbers together and send back an object containing the value 5.</p>

<p>Here's what I have tried so far/ have:
<strong>index.js</strong></p>

<pre><code>var express = require('express');
var router = express.Router();

/* GET home page. */   

router.get('/add', function (request,response) {
    console.log('add method called');
    console.log('The parameters are: ', request.query);
    //Attempt 1
   //var parse = parseInt('#operatorA',12);
   // var parse2= parseInt('operatorB',7);

    //Attempt 2
   //var operatorA = $('#operatorA').val();
    // var operatorB = $('#operatorB').val();

    //Attempt 3
    //var a = parseInt(" ") ;
    //var b = parseInt(" ") ;
    //var x = parseInt (a + b);

    //Attempt 4
    //var x = a+b;

    //Attempt 5
    //var a = operatorA this won't work b/c operator a isn't defined here.

    //Attempt 6
    //var a = $('#operatorA').val();
    //var b = $('#operatorB').val();
    //var x = parseInt(a);
    //var y = parseInt(b);

    response.send([
        //Attempt 1
        //parse

        //Attempt 2
    //parseInt(operatorA,operatorB)

        //Attempt 3 &amp; 4
      //  x

        //Attempt 6
        //x + y
    ]);
});
module.exports = router;

<p><strong>Control.js</strong></p>

<pre><code>$(document).ready(function() {
    'use strict';
    console.log('Document loaded in isit320');

    $('#read').click(read);
    $('#readJson').click(callReadJson);
    $('#add').click(add);
    }

    function add() {
        var operatorA = $('#operatorA').val();
        var operatorB = $('#operatorB').val();
        console.log('operators: ', operatorA, operatorB);
        var requestQuery = { operatorA: operatorA, operatorB: operatorB };
        $.getJSON('/add', requestQuery,function(result) {
            console.log(result);
            $('#display').html(JSON.stringify(result));
        });
    }
});
