I am supposed to implement an application to the user that has 2 buttons(Increment/decrement) and a label. When increment is pressed the number increases and decreases by one when decrement is pressed. The number starts at 50. I have it to where it shows the buttons and they work, but they work on 2 different variables, so their is 2 number printed to the screen instead of 1. My question is how can i make the button act on only one number. I have seen people use push etc. but is there another way to do this by passing in a value to both or something? Thanks
