A bit of background… Charles Babbage invented the Difference and Analytical Engines, precursors to the modern computer. Ada Lovelace is considered the first computer programmer. The first two modern computers were MARK I and ENIAC I. John von Neumann invented the stored-program approach of executing programs. Computers are connected into a network. Interconnected networks are called internets. Binary numbers are used in computers. A typical computer consists of five components: RAM, CPU, storage devices, I/O devices, and communication devices. There are three levels of programming languages: machine, assembly, and high-level. Java is one of the newest high-level programming language in use today. In this course, you will learn how to program in Java.

Account, Vehicle, Employee, etc. are examples of possible objects. An object is comprised of data and operations that manipulate those data.

©The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. 1.1 Classes and Objects To create an object inside the computer program, we must provide a definition for objects—how they behave and what kinds of information they maintain—called a class. An object is called an instance of a class.

©The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. 1.2 Messages and Methods A class or an object must possess a matching method to be able to handle the received message. A method defined for a class is called a class method, and a method defined for an object is called an instance method. A value we pass to an object when sending a message is called an argument of the message.

An instance data value is used to maintain information specific to individual instances. For example, each Account object maintains its balance.

©The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. 1.3 Class and Instance Data Values A class data value is used to maintain information shared by all instances or aggregate information about the instances. For example, minimum balance is the information shared by all Account objects, whereas the average balance of all Account objects is aggregate information.

©The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. 1.4 Inheritance First, we define a class that contains the common features of the entities. Then we define classes as an extension of the common class inheriting everything from the common class.

©The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. 1.4 Inheritance We call the common class the superclass and all classes that inherit from it subclasses. We also call the superclass an ancestor and the subclass a descendant.

©The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. 1.5 Software Life Cycle The sequence of stages from conception to operation of a program is called software life cycle. Five stages are Analysis Design Coding Testing Operation and Maintenance

©The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. 1.5 Software Life Cycle Analysis phase: Study the problem. Determine if a solution is possible. Develop a requirements specification describing the features of the program.

©The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. 1.5 Software Life Cycle Design phase: Turn the requirements specification into a detailed program design. Fully define all classes and objects, including how they behave and communicate between themselves.

©The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. 1.5 Software Life Cycle Coding phase: Implement the detailed design into an actual program.

©The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. 1.5 Software Life Cycle Testing phase: Run the program using different data sets to verify the program works properly. Unit testing: Test classes individually. Integration testing: Test that the classes work together correctly.

©The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. 1.5 Software Life Cycle Operation phase: Program is put into use. Software maintenance accounts for approximately 70% of the cost of the software.

More on UML – Unified Modeling Language We will look at a few useful UML diagrams: Use Case Diagrams Static Diagrams: Class Diagrams Object Diagrams Interaction Diagrams: Sequence Diagrams Activity Diagrams We already had some elements of UML introduced in the preceding viewgraphs. Now, we will analyze more details. We will practice the use of the diagrams during the lab. For more details see: UML.html
