How do I add functionality to a winforms program in C#?

I'm trying to make a winforms version of a program I originally wrote as a console app.

Here's a picture of my current progress. I've made the text boxes and buttons (with a read-only textbox for output). I don't know how to actually make the buttons function.

I want it to work the same as the console version did (ask for input w/ error messages for anything that isn't an positive integer, and calculate the output), but I've never done winforms before so I'm at a roadblock.

Just double click the button and it will take you to the code behind page. You can do something as simple as add a textbox (TextBox1) add a button (Button1)

Double click button on your winform and it will take you to the click event of the button.

In the code behind type this:

TextBox1.Text = "Hello World!";

Now run your app and click the button.
