Step 2: Backend Logic – SumOfDigits.aspx.cs

using System;

public partial class SumOfDigits : System.Web.UI.Page
{
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
    }

    protected void btnFindSum_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        int number;
        bool isValid = int.TryParse(txtNumber.Text.Trim(), out number);

        if (!isValid || number < 0)
        {
            lblResult.Text = "Please enter a valid positive number.";
            lblResult.ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.Red;
            return;
        }

        int sum = FindSumOfDigits(number);
        lblResult.Text = $"The sum of digits of {number} is {sum}.";
        lblResult.ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.Green;
    }

    private int FindSumOfDigits(int num)
    {
        int sum = 0;
        while (num > 0)
        {
            sum += num % 10;  // Get the last digit
            num /= 10;        // Remove the last digit
        }
        return sum;
    }
}

Real-Time Example Flow

Run the page SumOfDigits.aspx.
Enter a number like 1234.
Click “Find Sum of Digits”.
The result displays:

✅“The sum of digits of 1234 is 10.”

Explanation

Component	Purpose
TextBox (txtNumber)	To input the number.
Button (btnFindSum)	Executes the logic on click.
FindSumOfDigits()	Uses % and / operators to extract and sum digits.
Label (lblResult)	Displays result dynamically.

Sample Input / Output

Input	Output
123	6
987	24
5601	12
1000	1
