Hi Shiro,

Input always give you a string. Luckily, it is easy to convert it to a number.
In your case:

const inValue = parseInt($w('#input1').value, 10);

Hope this helps :slight_smile:

Thank you Liran.
I did it.
But ‘sum’ variable can’t calculate because ‘values’ variable not contain output from query, can you help me fix this?

The problem you see is caused by the async nature of database access.

Whatever happens in the .then function happens after time wise from the code that is below the .then code.
e.g.

// this happens first 
wixData.query(..some collection..)
 .find()
 .then(() => { 
    // this happens later, after the code below
 })
 // this happens next

Just move the sum calculation into the .then function.
