P. Cohoon and J. W. Davidson // Purpose: display a quotation in a console window public class DisplayForecast { // method main(): application entry point public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.print("I think there is a world market for"); System.out.println(" maybe five computers."); System.out.println(" Thomas Watson, IBM, 1943."); } A method is a named piece of code that performs some action or implements a behavior // Authors: J. P. Cohoon and J. W. Davidson // Purpose: display a quotation in a console window public class DisplayForecast { // method main(): application entry point public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.print("I think there is a world market for"); System.out.println(" maybe five computers."); System.out.println(" Thomas Watson, IBM, 1943."); } An application program is required to have a public static void method named main(). // Authors: J. P. Cohoon and J. W. Davidson // Purpose: display a quotation in a console window public class DisplayForecast { // method main(): application entry point public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.print("I think there is a world market for"); System.out.println(" maybe five computers."); System.out.println(" Thomas Watson, IBM, 1943."); } public, static, and void are keywords. They cannot be used as names public means the method is shareable // Authors: J. P. Cohoon and J. W. Davidson // Purpose: display a quotation in a console window public class DisplayForecast { // method main(): application entry point public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.print("I think there is a world market for"); System.out.println(" maybe five computers."); System.out.println(" Thomas Watson, IBM, 1943."); } We will discuss static and void later // Authors: J. P. Cohoon and J. W. Davidson // Purpose: display a quotation in a console window public class DisplayForecast { // method main(): application entry point public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.print("I think there is a world market for"); System.out.println(" maybe five computers."); System.out.println(" Thomas Watson, IBM, 1943."); } Java allows a statement to be made up of multiple lines of text Semicolons delimit one statement from the next // Authors: J. P. Cohoon and J. W. Davidson // Purpose: display a quotation in a console window public class DisplayForecast { // method main(): application entry point public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.print("I think there is a world market for"); System.out.println(" maybe five computers."); System.out.println(" Thomas Watson, IBM, 1943."); } A class defines an object form. An object can have methods and attributes Keyword class indicates a class definition follows // Authors: J. P. Cohoon and J. W. Davidson // Purpose: display a quotation in a console window public class DisplayForecast { // method main(): application entry point public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.print("I think there is a world market for"); System.out.println(" maybe five computers."); System.out.println(" Thomas Watson, IBM, 1943."); } A class like a method must have a name // Authors: J. P. Cohoon and J. W. Davidson // Purpose: display a quotation in a console window public class DisplayForecast { // method main(): application entry point public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.print("I think there is a world market for"); System.out.println(" maybe five computers."); System.out.println(" Thomas Watson, IBM, 1943."); } A class like a method must have a name // Authors: J. P. Cohoon and J. W. Davidson // Purpose: display a quotation in a console window public class DisplayForecast { // method main(): application entry point public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.print("I think there is a world market for"); System.out.println(" maybe five computers."); System.out.println(" Thomas Watson, IBM, 1943."); } Programs are read by people – make sure they are readable. Use whitespace, comments, and indentation to aid understanding // Authors: J. P. Cohoon and J. W. Davidson // Purpose: display a quotation in a console window public class DisplayForecast { // method main(): application entry point public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.print("I think there is a world market for"); System.out.println(" maybe five computers."); System.out.println(" Thomas Watson, IBM, 1943."); } // indicates rest of the line is a comment Comments are used to document authors, purpose, and program elements Three comments
3 Indentation // Authors: J. P. Cohoon and J. W. Davidson // Purpose: display a quotation in a console window public class DisplayForecast { // method main(): application entry point public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.print("I think there is a world market for"); System.out.println(" maybe five computers."); System.out.println(" Thomas Watson, IBM, 1943."); } Indentation indicates subcomponents Method main() is part of DisplayForecast Statements are part of method main()
4 Good whitespacing // Authors: J. P. Cohoon and J. W. Davidson // Purpose: display a quotation in a console window public class DisplayForecast { // method main(): application entry point public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.print("I think there is a world market for"); System.out.println(" maybe five computers."); System.out.println(" Thomas Watson, IBM, 1943."); } Whitespace separates program elements Whitespace between program elements is ignored by Java Whitespace
5 Bad whitespacing The same program without any whitespacing or comments: public class DisplayForecast2 { public static void main (String[] args) { System.out.print("I think there is a world market for"); System.out.println(" maybe five computers."); System.out.println(" Thomas Watson, IBM, 1943."); } }
6 An aside: IOCCC The International Obfuscated C Code Contest Online at C has very terse syntax So the contest tries to make it terser! One common method is by modifying the whitespace

8 Identifiers Identifiers are names for variables, classes, etc. Good ones are compact, but inidicate what they stand for radius, width, height, length Bad ones are either too long theRadiusOfTheCircle theWidthOfTheBoxThatIsBeingUsed the_width_of_the_box_that_is_being_used Or too short a, b, c, d, e Good identifiers will help the graders understand your program!

10 Capitalization Case matters! public ≠ Public ≠ PUBLIC This is different that FORTRAN and BASIC This is the same as C/C++ You can use Public as a identifier Not recommended, though!
11 Defining a method All methods have the following syntax: modifers type name ( parameters ) { statements } Properties of the method Type that it returns A name for the method Any number (including zero) of parameters The body of the method (can be empty) public staticvoidmain(String[] args){... }
12 Escape sequences Java provides escape sequences for printing special characters \bbackspace \nnewline \ttab \rcarriage return \\backslash \"double quote \'single quote
13 Escape sequences What do these statements output? System.out.println("Person\tHeight\tShoe size"); System.out.println("========================="); System.out.println("Hannah\t5‘1\"\t7"); System.out.println("Jenna\t5'10\"\t9"); System.out.println("JJ\t6'1\"\t14"); Output Person Height Shoe size ========================= Hannah 5‘1" 7 Jenna 5'10" 9 JJ 6'1" 14
14 Assignment operator = Allows the memory location for a variable to be updated Consider int j = 11; j = 1985; Primitive variable assignment Assignment operator = Allows the memory location for a variable to be updated Consider int j = 11; j = 1985;

16 Primitive variable assignment Consider double x = 5.12; double y = 19.28; double rememberX = x; x = y; y = rememberX; Consider double x = 5.12; double y = 19.28; double rememberX = x; x = y; y = rememberX; Consider double x = 5.12; double y = 19.28; double rememberX = x; x = y; y = rememberX; Consider double x = 5.12; double y = 19.28; double rememberX = x; x = y; y = rememberX; Consider double x = 5.12; double y = 19.28; double rememberX = x; x = y; y = rememberX; Consider double x = 5.12; double y = 19.28; double rememberX = x; x = y; y = rememberX;
17 Primitive variable types Java has 8 (or so) primitive types: float double boolean char byte short int long real numbers integer numbers two values: true and falsea a single character Also the void “type”
18 Primitive real (floating-point) types A float takes up 4 bytes of space Has 6 decimal places of accuracy: A double takes up 8 bytes of space Has 15 decimal places of accuracy: Always use doubles It will save you quite a headache!
19 Primitive integer types Consider a byte: 1 byte = 8 bits Each bit has two possibilities: 0 or 1 2 8 = 256 Thus, a byte can have any one of 256 values A Java byte can have values from -128 to 127 From -2 7 to C/C++ has unsigned versions; Java does not
20 Primitive integer types TypeBytesMinimum valueMaximum value byte1-2 7 = =127 short = -32, = 32,767 int =-2,147,483, =2,147,483,647 long =-9,223,372,036, 854,775, =9,223,372,036, 854,775,807
21 Increment and decrement operators ++ Increments a number variable by 1 -- Decrements a numeric variable by 1 Consider int i = 4; // define ++i; System.out.println(i); System.out.print(++i); System.out.println(i++); System.out.println(i); ++ Increments a number variable by 1 -- Decrements a numeric variable by 1 Consider int i = 4; ++i; // increment System.out.println(i); System.out.print(++i); System.out.println(i++); System.out.println(i); ++ Increments a number variable by 1 -- Decrements a numeric variable by 1 Consider int i = 4; ++i; System.out.println(i); // display System.out.print(++i); System.out.println(i++); System.out.println(i); ++ Increments a number variable by 1 -- Decrements a numeric variable by 1 Consider int i = 4; ++i; System.out.println(i); System.out.print(++i); // update then display System.out.println(i++); System.out.println(i); ++ Increments a number variable by 1 -- Decrements a numeric variable by 1 Consider int i = 4; ++i; System.out.println(i); System.out.print(++i); System.out.println(i++); // display then update System.out.println(i); ++ Increments a number variable by 1 -- Decrements a numeric variable by 1 Consider int i = 4; ++i; System.out.println(i); System.out.print(++i); System.out.println(i++); System.out.println(i); // display ++ Increments a number variable by 1 -- Decrements a numeric variable by 1 Consider int i = 4; ++i; System.out.println(i); System.out.print(++i); System.out.println(i++); System.out.println(i);
22 Why you should get the extended warranty
23 Primitive character type All characters have a integer equivalent ‘0’ = 48 ‘1’ = 49 ‘A’ = 65 ‘a’ = 97 Thus, you can refer to ‘B’ as ‘A’+1
24 Primitive character type public class LowerToUpper { // main(): application entry point public static void main(String[] args) { // set lower case character of interest char lowerCaseLetter = 'c'; // convert to uppercase equivalent char upperCaseLetter = 'A' + (lowerCaseLetter - 'a'); // display result System.out.println("Uppercase equivalent of"); System.out.println(" " + lowerCaseLetter); System.out.println("is"); System.out.println(" " + upperCaseLetter); }
25 Primitive boolean type When is the following program valid in Java? Assume a and b have been properly declared... if ( a && b ) { // do something interesting }... Answer: ONLY when a and b are boolean variables In C/C++, a and b would be ints (or int variants) If you try making a and b ints in Java, you get the following: operator && cannot be applied to int,int
26 Primitive void “type” In Java, you can ONLY use void to specify that a method does not return a value You cannot use it to specify that there are no parameters to a method:... int foo (void) {... This is different from C/C++ You cannot use it to declare a void “variable”, as in C/C++: void *foo;
27 Variable initialization Consider the following code: int x; System.out.println(x); What happens? Error message: variable x might not have been initialized
28 Constants Consider the following: final int x = 5; The value of x can NEVER be changed! The value assigned to it is “final” This is how Java defines constants
29 Expressions What is the value used to initialize expression int expression = * 5; What value is displayed System.out.println(5 / 2.0); Java rules in a nutshell Each operator has a precedence level and an associativity Operators with higher precedence are done first * and / have higher precedence than + and - Associativity indicates how to handle ties When floating-point is used the result is floating point
30 Question on expressions Does the following statement compute the average of double variables a, b, and c? Why double average = a + b + c / 3.0;
31 System.out.println() public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.print("I think there is a world market for"); System.out.println(" maybe five computers."); System.out.println(" Thomas Watson, IBM, 1943."); } Class System supplies objects that can print and read values System variable out references the standard printing object Known as the standard output stream Variable out provides access to printing methods print(): displays a value println(): displays a value and moves cursor to the next line
32 System.out + println(String s) : void + print(String s) : void +... System.out : PrintStream - destination = -... Variable System.out gives access to an output stream of type PrintStream The printing destination attribute for this PrintStream object is the console window The behaviors of a PrintStream object support a high-level view of printing
33 Selection System. out. print ( " string " ) Literal character string that is the parameter to print(). Member out of System is an output stream object automatically associated with the console window running the application Class System is defined in the standard package java.lang The period indicates that we want to select an individual class member of System The period indicates that we want to select an individual class member of out Method member of out. The execution of member print() causes its parameter to be displayed to the output stream The method we are calling
34 I/O streams System.out Prints to standard output Equivalent to cout in C++, and print() in C System.err Prints to standard error Equivalent to cerr in C++, and fprintf(stderr) in C System.in Reads from standard input Equivalent to cin in C++, and scanf() in C
35 Beware!!!
36 Example program: temperature conversion // Purpose: Convert a Celsius temperature to Fahrenheit public class CelsiusToFahrenheit { // main(): application entry point public static void main(String[] args) { // set Celsius temperature of interest int celsius = 28; // convert to Fahrenheit equivalent int fahrenheit = 32 + ((9 * celsius) / 5); // display result System.out.println("Celsius temperature"); System.out.println(" " + celsius); System.out.println("equals Fahrenheit temperature"); System.out.println(" " + fahrenheit); }
37 Computation Programmers frequently write small programs for computing useful things Example – body mass index (BMI) Measure of fitness Ratio of person’s weight to the square of the person’s height Weight in is kilograms, height is in meters Person of interest is 4.5 feet and weighs 75.5 pounds Metric conversions Kilograms per pound Meters per foot
38 Program outline for BMI.java // Purpose: Compute BMI for given weight and height public class BMI { // main(): application entry point public static void main(String[] args) { // define constants // set up person's characteristics // convert to metric equivalents // perform bmi calculation // display result }
39 // define constants final double KILOGRAMS_PER_POUND = 0.454; final double METERS_PER_FOOT = ; // define constants final double KILOGRAMS_PER_POUND = 0.454; final double METERS_PER_FOOT = ; // define constants final double KILOGRAMS_PER_POUND = 0.454; final double METERS_PER_FOOT = ; BMI.java: define constants
40 BMI.java: personal characteristics // set up person's characteristics double weightInPounds = 75.5; // our person’s weight double heightInFeet = 4.5; // our person’s height // set up person's characteristics double weightInPounds = 75.5; // our person’s weight double heightInFeet = 4.5; // our person’s height // set up person's characteristics double weightInPounds = 75.5; // our person’s weight double heightInFeet = 4.5; // our person’s height
41 BMI.java: convert to metric equivalents // convert to metric equivalents double metricWeight = weightInPounds * KILOGRAMS_PER_POUND; double metricHeight = heightInFeet * METERS_PER_FOOT; // convert to metric equivalents double metricWeight = weightInPounds * KILOGRAMS_PER_POUND; double metricHeight = heightInFeet * METERS_PER_FOOT; // convert to metric equivalents double metricWeight = weightInPounds * KILOGRAMS_PER_POUND; double metricHeight = heightInFeet * METERS_PER_FOOT;

46 Pentium math error 2 Top 10 reasons to buy a Pentium: 10Your old PC is too accurate Provides a good alibi when the IRS calls Attracted by Intel's new "You don't need to know what's inside" campaign It redefines computing--and mathematics! You've always wondered what it would be like to be a plaintiff Current paperweight not big enough Takes concept of "floating point" to a new level You always round off to the nearest hundred anyway Got a great deal from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory It'll probably work!!
47 Common program elements Type Set of values along with operators that can manipulate and create values from the set Primitive types support numeric, character, logical values double and float Values with decimals byte, short, int, long Integers char Characters (considered numeric) boolean Logical values Basic operators + addition- subtraction * multiplication/ division
48 Common program elements Constant Symbolic name for memory location whose value does not change KILOGRAMS_PER_POUND Variable Symbolic name for memory location whose value can change weightInPounds
