Accept negative number in EditText

In last exercise "Display formated number in decimal, octal and hexadecimal using String.format", EditText defined in XML with android:inputType="number". It will not accept minus sign, so the input number is always positive.

To accept minus sign to enter negative number, change it to android:inputType="numberSigned".
