Main_Activity Launch crashes

Question

I'm trying to make an android app, but on launching the main activity on an developer device the logcat goes like this:

The device is Samsung GT-S5282: Rooted: Resurrection Remix (Marshmallow)

What's going wrong?

Here is my main activity:

package com.win.rd.calculator;

import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.TextView;
import android.widget.Toast;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    EditText edt1, edt2;
    TextView txt;
    Button pls, min, mlp, div;

    double numA, numB, result;
    int flag, ecd;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        edt1 = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.num1);
        edt2 = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.num2);
        txt = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.res);
        pls = (Button) findViewById(R.id.plus);
        min = (Button) findViewById(R.id.minus);
        mlp = (Button) findViewById(R.id.multiply);
        div = (Button) findViewById(R.id.divide);

        numA = numB = result = flag = 0;

        numA = Double.valueOf(edt1.getText().toString());
        numB = Double.valueOf(edt2.getText().toString());

    }

    public void Operation ( double numA, double numB, int flag){
        if (flag == 1) {
            result = (numA + numB);
        } else if (flag == 2) {
            result = (numA - numB);
        } else if (flag == 3) {
            result = (numA * numB);
        } else if (flag == 4) {
            result = numA / numB;
            if (Double.isInfinite(result)) {
                ecd = 1;
                edt1.setText("");
                edt2.setText("");
                Toast.makeText(this, "Cannot Divide By Zero", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }
            else if (Double.isNaN(result)){
                ecd = 2;
                edt1.setText("");
                edt2.setText("");
                Toast.makeText(this, "0/0 Not possible", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }
        }
    }

    public void Plus (View view){
        txt.setText("+");
        flag = 1;
        if (!edt1.toString().equals("") || !edt2.toString().equals(""))
            Operation(numA, numB, flag);
        else
            Toast.makeText(this, "Empty Field", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    }
    public void Minus (View view){
        txt.setText("-");
        flag = 2;
        if (!edt1.toString().equals("") || !edt2.toString().equals(""))
            Operation(numA, numB, flag);
        else
            Toast.makeText(this, "Empty Field", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    }

    public void Multiply (View view){
        txt.setText("x");
        flag = 3;
        if (!edt1.toString().equals("") || !edt2.toString().equals(""))
            Operation(numA, numB, flag);
        else
            Toast.makeText(this, "Empty Field", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    }

    public void Divide (View view){
        txt.setText("/");
        flag = 4;
        if (!edt1.toString().equals("") || !edt2.toString().equals(""))
            Operation(numA, numB, flag);
        else
            Toast.makeText(this, "Empty Field", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    }

    public void Result (View view){
        if (flag == 4) {
            if (ecd == 1)
                txt.setText("Infinite");
            if (ecd == 2)
                txt.setText("NaN");
        }
        else
            txt.setText(String.valueOf(result));
    }
}

Its a simple calculator app.

Double.valueOf() & Double.double.parseDouble() produces the same result right.? What are other typecasting methods in java. Thanks for quick comment.

at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:616) Caused by: java.lang.NumberFormatException: Invalid double: ""

The error says that you are trying to convert empty string to double which is causing this issue, so you should handle empty strings cases like below

if(edt1.getText().toString() != null && !edt1.getText().toString().isEmpty()){
    numA = Double.valueOf(edt1.getText().toString());
}
