Java programming language
• Dynamic Web applications
– Servlets, JSP
• Native applications
– Android and blackberry
• Java is not
– Javascript
– Native IOS
@ Sonia Sousa 32015

Java is…
• A complied language
– Has restrictive rules but is not difficult
• Similar languages
– C, C + +, c#, Javascript, PHP
• Although…
– You need to understand
• Rules – basic programming vocabulary
• The principles of object-oriented language
@ Sonia Sousa 42015

First steps on Java
• Basic Structure
– Object-oriented concepts
• Understand programming concepts like
– What is a statement
– What is a variable
– What is a function
– What is a condition
@ Sonia Sousa 52015

Development Environments
• Applications that support Java development:
– Eclipse SE Development Kit (JDK)
• Runtime, compiler and other tools
– NetBeans
– BlueJ
• Though the details of these environments
differ,
– the basic compilation and execution process is
essentially the same
6@ Sonia Sousa2015

Java Translation
• Java is an
– interpreted language
– Is portable
• The Java compiler translates into
– Java bytecode
• We will use a Java virtual machine
– Eclipse

• What is an Object?
– An object-oriented -> aims to -> model real-world
objects
• examples of real-world objects: dog, desk, computer,
bicycle
– Characteristics of real-world object
• have state and behaviour
– State = name, color, breed, hungry
– Behaviour = barking, fetching, wagging tail
@ Sonia Sousa 122015

A bicycle modeled as a object
State
Variables (fields)
behaviours
functions (methods)
speed
Pedal cadence
gear
that allow to change the state
Function to change the gear (bicycle has 3 gears)
1. Reject values < 1
or > than 3
2. Verify what is the
current gear
3. Change the gear

What we know
• What are variables -> state
– state of an object in real-world
• What are functions (methods) -> behaviours
– Behaviour of that object in real world
• But…
– Take the bicycle example
• 1 model/brand can have similar types of bicycle
• How to represent in object-oriented terms?
– Using classes

What Is a Class?
• A Class represent 1 object (bicycle)
– or 1 or more objects (bicycles)
• Objects with similar characteristics of Object bicycle:
– Same model, same company, same set of blueprints, same
components
Instance
Of
class of objects known as bicycles
object

What Is a Inheritance?
• Represent 1 object (bicycle)
– Which shares
• general and specific characteristics
– Object bicycle:
• Shared characteristics
– class bicycles
• Specific characteristics
– superclass – MountainBike and TandemBike
– How do you represent as object term?
inherit
characteristics
class of objects known as bicycles
Superclass of objects known as specific characteristic

A class in java
• Java includes a library of classes
• Java program is made of an aggregation of
– 1 or + classes - package
– Most common used is
• Java.lang (Packages)
• Search on google for java 6 api docs
• We are going to use
– The System class -> belongs to Java.lang
– The out variable -> PrintStream class -> System class
– Print method - println

Java Development kit
• Includes
– Compiler - command javac
– Runtime - java
– Package - jar
– Documentation builder - javadoc

Java Application
• Consists
– Of many classes (.java) – command line runtime
– The packager (jar) – aggregates the many
classes
– The javadoc – the documentation builder
– The command line compiler - javac

First step
• Set up the workspace
• Create 1 application
– Create a project
– SRC AND BIN folders
• Every Java App Is Build Inside A Class
• Create a new class
– System.out.println(“Hello World”)
– Compile or run java application

Eclipse IDE

public class HelloWorld {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Hello world" );
}
}

@ Sonia Sousa2015

Java syntax
The method can
be called
anywhere
A method contains
1 program statements
public class MyProgram
{
}
// comments about the class
public static void main (String[] args)
{
}
// Main method declaration

The println Method
• The println method prints a character
string
• The System.out object represents a
destination (the monitor screen) to which
we can send output
25
System.out.println ("Whatever you are, be a good one.");
information provided
(arguments)
@ Sonia Sousa2015

Resulting files

Errors
• A program can have three types of errors
1) Compile-time errors
• The compiler will find syntax errors and other basic
problems
• If compile-time errors exist, an executable version of the
program is not created
2) Run-time errors
• A problem can occur during program execution, such as
– trying to divide by zero, which causes a program to terminate
abnormally
3) Logical errors
• A program may run, but produce incorrect results, perhaps
using an incorrect formula

Comments
• Comments should always be included
– To explain the purpose of the program; and
– Describe processing steps.
• They do not affect how a program works
• Java comments can take three forms:
29
// this comment runs to the end of the line
/* this comment runs to the terminating
symbol, even across line breaks */
/** this is a javadoc comment */
@ Sonia Sousa2015

Java is Case sensitive
• Java is case sensitive:
– Total, total, and TOTAL are different
identifiers
• Rules on how to…
– use different case styles for different types of
identifiers
• Class names start with upper case – MyProgram
• Variables with lower case - value

Reserved words
• Identifiers with a predefined meaning in the
language
– println
• A reserved word cannot be used in any
other way

Reserved Words
• The Java reserved words:

String Concatenation
• The string concatenation operator (+) is
used to append one string to the end of
another
"Peanut butter " + "and jelly"
• It can also be used to append a number to
a string
• A string literal cannot be broken across
two lines in a program
41@ Sonia Sousa2015

EXERCISE 3

//********************************************************************
// Facts.java Author: Lewis/Loftus
//
// Demonstrates the use of the string concatenation operator and the
// automatic conversion of an integer to a string.
//********************************************************************
public class Facts
{
//-----------------------------------------------------------------
// Prints various facts.
//-----------------------------------------------------------------
{
// Strings can be concatenated into one long string
System.out.println ("We present the following facts for your "
+ "extracurricular edification:");
System.out.println ();
// A string can contain numeric digits
System.out.println ("Letters in the Hawaiian alphabet: 12");
continue
43@ Sonia Sousa2015

continue
// A numeric value can be concatenated to a string
System.out.println ("Dialing code for Antarctica: " + 672);
System.out.println ("Year in which Leonardo da Vinci invented "
+ "the parachute: " + 1515);
System.out.println ("Speed of ketchup: " + 40 + " km per year");
}
}

continue
// A numeric value can be concatenated to a string
System.out.println ("Dialing code for Antarctica: " + 672);
System.out.println ("Year in which Leonardo da Vinci invented "
+ "the parachute: " + 1515);
System.out.println ("Speed of ketchup: " + 40 + " km per year");
}
}
Output
We present the following facts for your extracurricular edification:
Letters in the Hawaiian alphabet: 12
Dialing code for Antarctica: 672
Year in which Leonardo da Vinci invented the parachute: 1515
Speed of ketchup: 40 km per year
45@ Sonia Sousa2015

String Concatenation
• The + operator is also used for arithmetic addition
– The function that it performs depends on the type of the
information on which it operates
• If both operands are strings, or if one is a string and one is a
number,
– it performs string concatenation
• If both operands are numeric, it adds them
• The + operator is evaluated left to right, but parentheses
can be used to force the order

EXERCISE 9

Variables
• A variable is a name for a
– location in memory that holds a value
• When you declare a variable (variable declaration)
– you need to specify
65
int total;
int count, temp, result;
Multiple variables can be created in one declaration
data type variable name
@ Sonia Sousa2015

Variable Initialization
• You can add a initial value to your variable
66
int sum = 0;
int base = 32, max = 149;
data type variable name variable value = 0

Assignment
• An assignment statement
– Changes the value of a variable
• What happens?
• The value that was in total is overwritten
• You need to assign a value to a variable = variable's declared type
• Int , byte, short, long, float, double, boolean, char
• See more about primitive Data types

Constants
• A constant is an identifier
– that is similar to a variable except that it holds the
same value during its entire existence
• As the name implies, it is constant, not variable
• The compiler will issue an error if you try to
change the value of a constant
• In Java, we use the final modifier to declare a
constant
final int MIN_HEIGHT = 69;
74@ Sonia Sousa2015

Constants
• Constants are useful for three important reasons
1) First, they give meaning to otherwise unclear literal
values
• Example: MIN_HEIGHT means more than the literal 69
2) Second, they facilitate program maintenance
• If a constant is used in multiple places, its value need only be
set in one place
3) Third, they formally establish that a value should not
change,
• Avoiding inadvertent errors by other programmers

Primitive Data
• There are eight primitive data types in Java
• Four of them represent integers:
– byte, short, int, long
• Two of them represent floating point numbers:
– float, double
• One of them represents characters:
– char
• And one of them represents boolean values:
– boolean

Most common Types
• int
– integer (most common. no decimal)
• long
– holds a really big integer
• float
– accurate up to 7 decimal places
• double
– accurate up to 15 decimal places I do believe (at work and don't have a book)
• boolean
– false or true (also 1 = true, 0 = false)
• string
– anything from numbers to letters to whole sentences. It will take the input
literately.
• char
– character, such as f or 6 or

Numeric Primitive Data
• The difference between the numeric
primitive types is their size and the values
they can store:
Type
byte
short
int
long
float
double
Storage
8 bits
16 bits
32 bits
64 bits

Max Value
127
32,767
2,147,483,647
> 9 x 1018

Characters
• A char variable stores a single character
• Character literals are delimited by single quotes:
'a' 'X' '7' '$' ',' 'n'
• Example declarations:
char topGrade = 'A';
char terminator = ';', separator = ' ';
• Note the difference between
– a primitive character variable, which holds only one
character, and
– a String object, which can hold multiple characters

Character Sets
• A character set is an ordered list of characters,
with each character corresponding to a unique
number
• A char variable in Java can store any character
from the Unicode character set
• The Unicode character set uses sixteen bits per
character, allowing for 65,536 unique characters
• It is an international character set, containing
symbols and characters from many world
languages

Characters
• The ASCII character set is older and smaller
than Unicode, but is still quite popular
• The ASCII characters are a subset of the
Unicode character set, including:
uppercase letters
lowercase letters
punctuation
digits
special symbols
control characters
A, B, C, …
a, b, c, …
period, semi-colon, …
0, 1, 2, …
&, |, , …
carriage return, tab, ...

Boolean
• A boolean value represents a true or false
condition
• The reserved words true and false are
the only valid values for a boolean type
boolean done = false;
• A boolean variable can also be used to
represent any two states, such as a light bulb
being on or off
