CompSci 42.1Intro to Java Anatomy of a Class & Terminology Running and Modifying a Program

CompSci 42.2Intro to Java The Plan  Go over MoveTest.java  Similar to Horstmann p. 48  Basic coding conventions  Review with GreeterTest.java (Horstmann)  More terminology with Greeter.java (Horstmann)  Homework 0 reminder  Homework 1 assigned (due in 1 week)

CompSci 42.3Intro to Java Why know the lingo?  It’s difficult to read the textbooks if you don’t understand the words  Your compiler error messages use specific words with specific meanings  You need to be able to express your questions so others can understand them  The answers you receive will use the lingo

CompSci 42.4Intro to Java Terminology to Know  Package  Class  Import  Keyword  Public  Object  Identifier  Declaration  Definition  Body  Static  Void  Return  Method  Main  Parameter  String  Array  Type  Variable  Local  Constructor  Initialize  Assign  Arguments  Comments  Calling a method  System.out.println

CompSci 42.5Intro to Java MoveTester.java import java.awt.Rectangle; public class MoveTest { public static void main(String[] args) { Rectangle cerealBox = new Rectangle(5, 10, 20, 30); // move the rectangle cerealBox.translate(15, 25); // print the moved rectangle System.out.println(cerealBox); } Prints java.awt.Rectangle[x=20, y=35, width=20, height=30]

CompSci 42.6Intro to Java MoveTest.java import java.awt.Rectangle; public class MoveTest { public static void main(String[] args) { Rectangle cerealBox = new Rectangle(5, 10, 20, 30); // move the rectangle cerealBox.translate(15, 25); // print the moved rectangle System.out.println(cerealBox); } Prints java.awt.Rectangle[x=20, y=35, width=20, height=30] abstract windowing toolkit package Rectangle class java package import means to bring into the program classes or packages not in the package java.lang import is a keyword – it is a word with a special meaning

CompSci 42.7Intro to Java MoveTest.java import java.awt.Rectangle; public class MoveTest { public static void main(String[] args) { Rectangle cerealBox = new Rectangle(5, 10, 20, 30); // move the rectangle cerealBox.translate(15, 25); // print the moved rectangle System.out.println(cerealBox); } Prints java.awt.Rectangle[x=20, y=35, width=20, height=30] public means usable by everything, public is also a keyword class means instruction and data for making objects, class is a keyword MoveTest is the name of the class A class name must match the file name. Names are also called identifiers. Identifiers and keywords are mutually exclusive.

CompSci 42.8Intro to Java MoveTest.java import java.awt.Rectangle; public class MoveTest { public static void main(String[] args) { Rectangle cerealBox = new Rectangle(5, 10, 20, 30); // move the rectangle cerealBox.translate(15, 25); // print the moved rectangle System.out.println(cerealBox); } class declaration class definition. class body {} Starts and ends class body

CompSci 42.13Intro to Java MoveTest.java import java.awt.Rectangle; public class MoveTest { public static void main(String[] args) { Rectangle cerealBox = new Rectangle(5, 10, 20, 30); // move the rectangle cerealBox.translate(15, 25); // print the moved rectangle System.out.println(cerealBox); } Prints java.awt.Rectangle[x=20, y=35, width=20, height=30] Declaring the cerealBox variable of type Rectangle Initializing the cerealBox variable

CompSci 42.14Intro to Java MoveTest.java import java.awt.Rectangle; public class MoveTest { public static void main(String[] args) { Rectangle cerealBox = new Rectangle(5, 10, 20, 30); // move the rectangle cerealBox.translate(15, 25); // print the moved rectangle System.out.println(cerealBox); } Prints java.awt.Rectangle[x=20, y=35, width=20, height=30] Assignment operator Pronounced “gets” 1.Computes the right hand side 2.Assigns value to left hand side

CompSci 42.15Intro to Java MoveTest.java import java.awt.Rectangle; public class MoveTest { public static void main(String[] args) { Rectangle cerealBox = new Rectangle(5, 10, 20, 30); // move the rectangle cerealBox.translate(15, 25); // print the moved rectangle System.out.println(cerealBox); } Prints java.awt.Rectangle[x=20, y=35, width=20, height=30] Arguments – order matters

CompSci 42.19Intro to Java Why know and follow the Java Coding Conventions?  Helps understand code  makes purpose of identifiers clear  delineates separate pieces of code  assists in avoiding syntax errors  Expected if source code is to be viewed at any time by anyone other than the original author  Helps standardize

CompSci 42.20Intro to Java Coding Conventions  Capitalization  Class identifier  Variable identifier  Method identifier  Indentation  Braces  Body of code (also called a code block)  See course webpage for a complete description
