Figure $1$: Graphical User Interface of a Typing Application

Problem Description

The objective of this lab exercise is to create a graphical user interface $($GUI$)$ for a typing

application as shown in Figure $1.$ Complete the following task$($s$)$ as part of the lab.

$1.$ Create a JFrame as shown in the above figure. You need to use GridBagLayout and

GridBagConstraints to complete the task. A GridBagLayout places components in

a grid of rows and columns, allowing specified components to span multiple rows

or columns. In the class, we provide a helper class to create GridBagConstraints

easily. You can reuse that if you needed.
