A SIMPLE APPLICATION
Example 1.1
//This application program prints Welcome
//to Java!
package chapter1;
public class Welcome {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Welcome to Java!");
}
}

ANATOMY OF A JAVA PROGRAM
 Comments
 Reserved words
 Modifiers
 Statements
 Blocks
 Classes
 Methods
 The main method
 The exit method
6

COMMENTS
In Java, comments are preceded
by two slashes (//) in a line,
or enclosed between /* and */
in one or multiple lines. When
the compiler sees //, it
ignores all text after // in
the same line. When it sees /*,
it scans for the next */ and
ignores any text between /* and
*/.
7

RESERVED WORDS
Reserved words or keywords are
words that have a specific meaning
to the compiler and cannot be used
for other purposes in the program.
For example, when the compiler sees
the word class, it understands that
the word after class is the name
for the class. Other reserved words
in Example 1.1 are public, static,
and void. Their use will be
introduced later.
8

MODIFIERS
Java uses certain reserved words called
modifiers that specify the properties of
the data, methods, and classes and how
they can be used. Examples of
modifiers are public and static. Other
modifiers are private, final, abstract, and
protected. A public datum, method, or
class can be accessed by other
programs. A private datum or method
cannot be accessed by other programs.
9

STATEMENTS
A statement represents an
action or a sequence of
actions. The statement
System.out.println("Welcome to
Java!"); in the program in
Example 1.1 is a statement to
display the greeting "Welcome
to Java!" Every statement in
Java ends with a semicolon (;).
10

BLOCKS
11
A pair of braces in a program
forms a block that groups
components of a program.
public class Test {
System.out.println("Welcome to Java!");
}
}
Class block
Method block

CLASSES
The class is the essential Java
construct. A class is a template
or blueprint for objects.
A java program is defined by
using one or more classes.
12

METHODS
What is System.out.println? It is a method: a collection of statements that performs a
sequence of operations to display a message on the console.
 It can be used even without fully understanding the details of how it works.
It is used by invoking a statement with a string argument. The string argument is
enclosed within parentheses. In this case, the argument is "Welcome to Java!"
You can call the same println method with a different argument to print a different
message.
13

MAIN METHOD
The main method provides the
control of program flow. The Java
interpreter executes the
application by invoking the main
method.
The main method looks like this:
public static void main(String[]
args) {
// Statements;
}
14

THE EXIT METHOD
Use Exit to terminate the program
and stop all threads.
When your program starts, a
thread is spawned to run the
program. To terminate the thread,
you have to invoke the exit
method. 15

PRIMITIVE DATA TYPES AND
OPERATIONS
 Introduce Programming with an Example
 Identifiers, Variables, and Constants
 Primitive Data Types
– byte, short, int, long, float, double, char, boolean
 Expressions
 Operators, Precedence, Associativity, Operand
Evaluation Order: ++, --, *, /, %, +=, -=, *=, /=, %=,
^, &, |, +, -,
 Getting Input from Input Dialog Boxes
 Case Studies (Computing Mortgage, and Computing
Changes)
 Style and Documentation Guidelines
 Syntax Errors, Runtime Errors, and Logic Errors
16

IDENTIFIERS
 An identifier is a sequence of characters
that consist of letters, digits,
underscores (_), and dollar signs ($).
 An identifier must start with a letter,
an underscore (_), or a dollar sign ($).
It cannot start with a digit.
 An identifier cannot be a reserved word. (See
Appendix A, “Java Keywords,” for a list of reserved
words).
 An identifier cannot be true, false, or
null.
 An identifier can be of any length.
17

VARIABLES
// Compute the first area
radius = 1.0;
area = radius*radius*3.14159;
System.out.println("The area is “ +
area + " for radius "+radius);
// Compute the second area
radius = 2.0;
area = radius*radius*3.14159;
System.out.println("The area is “ +
area + " for radius "+radius);
18

DECLARING VARIABLES
int x; // Declare x to be an
// integer variable;
double radius; // Declare radius to
// be a double variable;
char a; // Declare a to be a
// character variable;
19

NUMERICAL DATA TYPES (P.33)
byte 8 bits
short 16 bits
int 32 bits
long 64 bits
float 32 bits
double 64 bits
20

ASSIGNMENT STATEMENTS
x = 1; // Assign 1 to x;
radius = 1.0; // Assign 1.0 to radius;
a = 'A'; // Assign 'A' to a;
21

DECLARING AND INITIALIZING
IN ONE STEP
 int x = 1;
 double d = 1.4;
 float f = 1.4;
Is this statement correct?
22

CONSTANTS
final datatype CONSTANTNAME = VALUE;
final double PI = 3.14159;
final int SIZE = 3;
23

OPERATORS
+, -, *, /, and %
5/2 yields an integer 2.
5.0/2 yields a double value 2.5
5 % 2 yields 1 (the remainder of the division)
5.0 % 2 is not defined : modulo is defined only
for integers.
24

NOTE
Calculations involving floating-point
numbers are approximated because
these numbers are not stored with
complete accuracy. For example,
System.out.println(1 - 0.1 - 0.1 - 0.1
- 0.1 - 0.1);
displays 0.5000000000000001, not 0.5,
and
System.out.println(1.0 - 0.9);
displays 0.09999999999999998, not 0.1.
Integers are stored precisely.
Therefore, calculations with integers
yield a precise integer result.
25

EXAMPLE PROGRAM 1: ADDITION
26
public class addition {
// declare variables
int x, y, z;
// Specify values of x and y
x = 2;
y = 3;
z = x + y;
System.out.println("x has a value of " + x);
System.out.println("y has a value of " + y);
System.out.println("The sum of x + y is " + z);
System.exit(0);
}
}

EXAMPLE PROGRAM 2 : DIVISION
27
public class division {
public static void main ( String[] args) {
//declare variables
int x, y, z ;
x = 12;
y = 4;
z = x / y ;
System.out.println("x has a value of " + x);
System.out.println("y has a value of " + y);
System.out.println("x divided by y is " + z);
System.exit(0);
}
}

28

COMPILING AND RUNNING A JAVA PROGRAM
 Java source code files (files with a .java
extension) are compiled into a format called
bytecode (files with a .class extension), which
can then be executed by a Java interpreter.
Compiled Java code can run on most
computers because Java interpreters and
runtime environments, known as Java Virtual
Machines (VMs), exist for most operating
systems, including UNIX, the MACintosh OS,
and Windows. Bytecode can also be
converted directly into machine language
instructions by a just-in-time compiler (JIT).
29

FOR EXAMPLE
 Create a file named say .. addition.java
using some editor say wordpad.
 From the command line type the following
– javac addition.java (java code compiled to a
bytecode)
 A file called addition.class(bytecode) is
created,
 Now type
java addition (bytecode being executed by java
interpreter)
And you will get the results
30

NUMBER LITERALS
A literal is a constant value that
appears directly in the program. For
example, 34, 1,000,000, and 5.0 are
literals in the following
statements:
int i = 34;
long l = 1000000;
double d = 5.0;
31

INTEGER LITERALS
An integer literal can be assigned to an
integer variable as long as it can fit into
the variable. A compilation error would
occur if the literal were too large for the
variable to hold. For example, the statement
byte b = 1000 would cause a compilation
error, because 1000 cannot be stored in a
variable of the byte type.
An integer literal is assumed to be of the int
type, whose value is between -231 (-
2147483648) to 231–1 (2147483647). To denote
an integer literal of the long type, append
it with the letter L or l. L is preferred
because l (lowercase L) can easily be
confused with 1 (the digit one).
32

FLOATING-POINT LITERALS
Floating-point literals are written
with a decimal point. By default, a
floating-point literal is treated as a
double type value. For example, 5.0 is
considered a double value, not a float
value. You can make a number a float
by appending the letter f or F, and
make a number a double by appending
the letter d or D. For example, you
can use 100.2f or 100.2F for a float
number, and 100.2d or 100.2D for a
double number.
33

SCIENTIFIC NOTATION
Floating-point literals can also be
specified in scientific notation,
for example, 1.23456e+2, same as
1.23456e2, is equivalent to 123.456,
and 1.23456e-2 is equivalent to
0.0123456. E (or e) represents an
exponent and it can be either in
lowercase or uppercase.

INCREMENT AND
DECREMENT OPERATORS, CONT.
39
Using increment and decrement operators
makes expressions short,
but it also makes them complex and
difficult to read.
Avoid using these operators in
expressions that modify multiple
variables, or the same variable for
multiple times such as this: int k = ++i
+ i. Its not a good programming

40
public class assignment_operators {
int x = 10;
int y = 5;
int z = 3;
System.out.println("x = "+x+", y = "+y+", z = "+z);
x++; // x = x+1;
y += x; // y = y+x;
z *= x; // z = z*x;
System.out.println("Now x = "+x+", y = "+y+", z = "+z);
x--; // x = x-1;
y *= x; // y = y*x;
z %= x; // z = z%x;
System.out.println("And now x = "+x+", y = "+y+", z = "+z);
System.exit(0);
}
}

41
public class circle_area {
double radius, area;
// assign radius of the circle
radius = 3.00;
area = radius * radius * 3.14159 ;
System.out.println("The area of the circle of radius " + radius +
" is " + area);
System.exit(0);
}
}

42
public class circle_area_pi {
final double PI = 3.14159;
double radius, area;
// assign radius of the circle
radius = 3.00;
area = radius * radius * PI ;
System.out.println("The area of the circle of radius " + radius +
" is " + area);
System.exit(0);
}
}

ASSIGNMENT EXPRESSIONS AND
ASSIGNMENT STATEMENTS
Prior to Java 2, all the expressions can
be used as statements. Since Java 2, only
the following types of expressions can be
statements:
variable op= expression; // Where op is +,
-, *, /, or %
++variable;
variable++;
--variable;
variable--;
43

NUMERIC TYPE CONVERSION
Consider the following statements:
byte i = 100;

 || (Conditional OR) Short-circuit OR
 =, +=, -=, *=, /=, %= (Assignment operator)
60

OPERATOR ASSOCIATIVITY
When two operators with the same
precedence are evaluated, the
associativity of the operators
determines the order of evaluation.
All binary operators except assignment
operators are left-associative.
a – b + c – d is equivalent to ((a
– b) + c) – d
Assignment operators are right-
associative. Therefore, the expression
a = b += c = 5 is equivalent to a =
(b += (c = 5))
61

OPERAND EVALUATION ORDER
The precedence and associativity
rules specify the order of the
operators, but do not specify
the order in which the operands
of a binary operator are
evaluated. Operands are
evaluated from left to right in
Java.
The left-hand operand of a
binary operator is evaluated
before any part of the right-
hand operand is evaluated.
62

OPERAND EVALUATION ORDER, CONT.
If no operands have side effects that
change the value of a variable, the
order of operand evaluation is
irrelevant. Interesting cases arise
when operands do have a side effect.
For example, x becomes 1 in the
following code, because a is evaluated
to 0 before ++a is evaluated to 1.
int a = 0;
int x = a + (++a);
But x becomes 2 in the following code,
because ++a is evaluated to 1, then a
is evaluated to 1.
int a = 0;
int x = ++a + a;
63

OPERATOR PRECEDENCE
How to evaluate
3 + 4 * 4 > 5 * (4 + 3) - ++i
Lets parenthisize
(3 + (4 * 4) ) > ( (5 * (4 + 3)) – (++i ) )
This is evaluates to
19 > (35 – (++i))
This evaluates to true if the value of i just before
this expression is > 15
64

GETTING INPUT FROM INPUT
DIALOG BOXES
String string =
JOptionPane.showInputDialog(
null, “Prompt Message”, “Dialog
Title”,
JOptionPane.QUESTION_MESSAGE));
where x is a string for the
prompting message and y is a
string for the title of the input
dialog box.
65

CONVERTTING STRINGS TO
INTEGERS
The input returned from the input dialog
box is a string. If you enter a numeric
value such as 123, it returns “123”. To
obtain the input as a number, you have to
convert a string into a number.
To convert a string into an int value,
you can use the static parseInt method in
the Integer class as follows:
int intValue =
Integer.parseInt(intString);
where intString is a numeric string such
as “123”.
66

CONVERTTING STRINGS TO
DOUBLES
To convert a string into a double
value, you can use the static
parseDouble method in the Double class
as follows:
double doubleValue
=Double.parseDouble(doubleString);
where doubleString is a numeric string
such as “123.45”.
67

EXAMPLE 2.2
ENTERING INPUT FROM DIALOG BOXES
68
This program first prompts the
user to enter a year as an int
value and checks if it is a
leap year, it then prompts you
to enter a double value and
checks if it is positive.
A year is a leap year if it is
divisible by 4 but not by 100,
or it is divisible by 400.

EXAMPLE 2.4
COMPUTING CHANGES
69
This program lets the user enter the amount in
decimal representing dollars and cents and output
a report listing the monetary equivalent in single
dollars, quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies.
Your program should report maximum number of
dollars, then the maximum number of quarters,
and so on, in this order.
