CS/IS 112 – Week 2 Logic Problem More Java background and basics Values Variables, and operations

Easy Logic Problem 1a Solving computer programming assignments involves paying attention to details And figuring out your own best tools for solving detailed problems Claude has a facility for learning languages. In each of the last four years (2002 through 2005), he has set himself the task of learning a different language so that, by the end of the year, he could vacation in a country where the language is spoken and make himself understood. He learned each language through a different method (in one case, through conversation with a native speaker). Discover the year in which Claude learned each language and the method he utilized. 1. Claude learned Spanish (which he did not pick up by listening to audio tapes) during an odd-numbered year. 2. He learned Finnish in He learned Korean by watching vides. 4. Polish (which Claude did not learn in 2004) is not the language that he learned by reading books or listening to tapes.

Classes and Objects CLASS – A single unit that defines both the data that will be used and the operations that can be performed on the data Operations in the above definition are formally referred to as METHODS (informally they are procedures and functions OBJECT is a specific item in a class Characteristics of an object are its ATTRIBUTES

A Well-Designed Program Is Built Using Modules

Java identifiers Identifiers are just programmer defined names for things and names are case sensitive at all times in Java Rules –First character cannot be a digit –Can contain letters, digits, underscore’_’ and dollar signs’$’ –Cannot be a Java keyword Shoulds – For this class MUSTs (conventions) –We will use the book conventions –Identifiers should be mnemonic –All identifiers except for a class name should begin with a lowercase character –First letter of each following word in the identifier should be capitalized –First letter of class names should be capitalized

Java Programming Basics // Everything to the right of the double slash is a human comment /* and */ Large block comment delimiters public class classname (classname must match your sourcecode file name) { } braces mark the beginning and end of a class

More Java basics public static void main (String[] args) Every application (not applet) must have a method name main. Every class must contain at least 1 method { } Braces also mark the beginning and end of each method System.out.print(“Hello World!”); Methods contain statements and each statement is terminated by a ‘;’

print and println methods System.out.print(“Hello World!”); General syntax –objectname.print(data); General Java Class called System –out is a specific object within that class –Referred to as Standard Output Stream –On most systems this is the video monitor The print method leaves the cursor right after the last character The println method always moves the cursor to the beginning of the next line

Hello World Basic Java //File: DisplayHelloWorld.java //Description: Displays Hello World! //Programmer: Bruce Haft //Date: 2/27/2006 public class DisplayHelloWorld { public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.print(“Hello World!”); } // end of main() method }

Hello World Dialog Box //File: DisplayADialog.java //Description: Construction of a dialog //Programmer: Bruce Haft //Date: 2/27/2006 import javax.swing.*; public class DisplayADialog { public static void main(String[] args) { JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"Hello World!", "Sample",JOptionPane.WARNING_MESSAGE); System.exit(0); } // end of main() method }

Data Types Primitive Data Operations on primitive data type are provided by arithmetic symbols Reference Data Operations provided as methods

Figure 2.1: Primitive Data Types

Integer data types TypeStorageRange byte1 byte-128 to 127 short2 bytes-32,768 to 32,767 int(def)4 bytes-2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647 long8 bytes-9,223,372,036,854,775,808 to 9,223,372,036,865,775,807

Floating Point TypeStorageRange of Values float4 bytes e-45 to e+38 double(def)8 bytes e-324 to e+308 Range of values Precision of values Exponential notation

Figure 2.2: Reference Types

Characters Stored in 16-bit unsigned values Unicode Java provides a class named String for manipulating this type of data. String type is a reference type Most operations for strings will be methods rather that arithmetic symbols

Figure 2.3: The Letters JEANS Stored by a Java Program

Escape Sequences The backslash (\) character causes Java to interpret the character that follows differently –\bmove back one space –\fmove to the next page –\nmove to the next line –\rcarriage return –\tmove to the next tab setting –\\backslash character output –\’single quote output –\”double quote output

Boolean Constant A type of data that is restricted to one of two values –True –False Cover more when we talk about decisions in Chapter 4
