COMP 110: Spring Questions? Last week’s lecture: Declarations Variables Assignments Operators Pseudocode

COMP 110: Spring Today in COMP 110 Type Casting More Operators Strings Console I/O

COMP 110: Spring From Last Time Type Name Kind of Value Memory Used Range of Values byteInteger1 byte-128 to 127 shortInteger2 bytes-32,768 to 32,768 intInteger4 bytes-2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647 longInteger8 bytes-9,223,372,036,854,775,808 to 9,223,372,036,854,775,807 floatFloating-point4 bytes± x to ± x doubleFloating-point8 bytes± x to ± x charCharacter2 bytes0 to 65,535 boolean 1 bitTrue or False (0 to 1)

COMP 110: Spring Assignment Compatibilities You cannot store a value of one type in a variable of another type int i = 0.1; //this does not compile! However, some types can be converted into other types double d = 1; //1 is automatically converted to 1.0

COMP 110: Spring Assignment Compatibilities byte » short » int » long » float » double A value of any type in the list can be assigned to a type further down the list Example int iVar = 7; double dVar = iVar; //this is legal

COMP 110: Spring Assignment Compatibilities In some cases, you may want to override the assignment compatibilities This can be done using type casting

COMP 110: Spring Type Casting Syntax (Type_Name) Expression Example double distance = 9.0; int points = (int)distance; //cast distance to an int //distance is not changed in any way //the value of points will be 9

COMP 110: Spring Type Casting Type casting is not rounding! The effect of a type cast is truncation Any fractional portion is discarded Example double bill = 25.75; int dollars = (int)bill ; //cast bill to an int //bill is not changed in any way //the value of dollars will be 25

COMP 110: Spring From Last Time Operators Addition (+) a + b Subtraction (-) a - b Multiplication (*) a * b Division (/) a / b Remainder or Modulo (%) a % b

COMP 110: Spring Parentheses and Precedence Parentheses can be used to indicate the order in which operations should be performed Example What is the value of “result”? int a = 3, b = 1, c = 2, result = 0; result = (a + b) * c; result = a + (b * c); result = 8 result = 5

COMP 110: Spring Binary Operators Binary operators take two operands An operand is just a number or variable For example, +,-,*,/ are binary operators i = a + b; i = a - b; i = a * b; i = a / b;

COMP 110: Spring Unary Operators Unary operators take a single operand + and – can also be unary operators i = -7; f = ;

COMP 110: Spring Specialized Assignment Operators += a += 3; //same as a = a + 3; -= a -= 4; //same as a = a – 4; *= a *= 2; //same as a = a * 2; /= a /= 3; //same as a = a / 3;

COMP 110: Spring Increment and Decrement Operators Increment Operator (++) count++; //same as count = count + 1; Decrement Operator (--) count--; //same as count = count – 1;

COMP 110: Spring Increment and Decrement Operators Can also be used in expressions in either prefix (++m) or postfix (m++) form Example n * (m++) Increases m by 1 after the multiplication n * (++m) Increases m by 1 before the multiplication

COMP 110: Spring Increment and Decrement Operators int n = 2; int m = 4; int result = n * (m++); //produces result = 8, m = 5 result = n * (++m); //produces result = 12, m = 6

COMP 110: Spring Operator Precedence Java evaluates expressions in an order specified by precedence rules Certain operations are performed before others Example i = * 3 – 1; // the value of i will be 9

COMP 110: Spring Java Precedence Rules Highest Precedence First: the unary operators +, -, ++, -- Second: the binary operators *, /, % Third: the binary operators +, - Lowest Precedence Binary operators of equal precedence are evaluated from left to right

COMP 110: Spring Precedence Examples -3 * 7 % 3 – 4 – % 3 – 4 – 6 0 – 4 – * (3 % 2 ) / -2 3 * 1 / -2 3 / -2 NOTE: Truncation of division operator on integers

COMP 110: Spring Constants Constants or literals are values that don’t change 2, 6, ‘B’, 5.433e8 NOTE: 5.433e8 means x 10 8 Example uses of constants int i = 2; // i is a variable, 2 is a constant char l = ‘J’; // l is a variable, ‘J’ is a constant double d = 6.1e38; //d is a variable, 6.1e38 is a //constant

COMP 110: Spring Named Constants A constant that is given a name and can be used much like a variable Syntax final Type Variable = Constant; Examples final double PI = ; final int HOURS_PER_DAY = 24;

COMP 110: Spring Strings How to represent sequences of characters in Java programs such as “Enter a whole number from 1 to 99.” Java provides the class “String” for this purpose

COMP 110: Spring Strings Messages like these are called String literals or String constants “Enter a whole number from 1 to 99.” “What is your name?” “I will add two numbers for you.” They have the type “String”

COMP 110: Spring Strings We can declare Strings in Java programs Example String greeting; greeting = “Hello!”; System.out.println(greeting); //prints Hello! to screen System.out.println(“Hello!”); //also prints Hello! to //screen

COMP 110: Spring String Indices Strings consist of a sequence of characters Each character has a position in the String UNCisGreat Positions Characters

COMP 110: Spring String Concatenation We can concatenate two Strings together using the (+) operator Example String name = “Bob”; String greeting = “Hi ” + name; System.out.println(greeting); //prints “Hi Bob” to the screen

COMP 110: Spring String Concatenation We can also concatenate Strings with other data types System.out.println("I am " " years old!"); //prints “I am 21 years old!” to screen

COMP 110: Spring Strings as a Class String is a class type, not a primitive type Class types have both data and methods (actions)

COMP 110: Spring String Length The “length()” method of the String class returns the # of characters in the String String myString = “Hi there!”; int len = myString.length(); Object 9 Method Class

COMP 110: Spring Strings All objects of the same type have the same methods, but may have different data Example String s1 = “First!”; String s2 = “Second!”; s1.length() returns 6 s2.length() returns 7

COMP 110: Spring String Methods string.indexOf(A_String) Returns the index of the first occurrence of A_String in string Example String phrase = “UNC is Great”; int ind = phrase.indexOf(“Great”); UNCisGreat

COMP 110: Spring String Methods string.substring(Start) Returns a new string having the same characters as the substring of string beginning at index Start through the end of string Example String phrase = “UNC is Great”; String sub = phrase.substring(2); UNCisGreat

COMP 110: Spring String Methods Other methods of the String class include string.charAt(index) Returns the character at index in string string.toLowerCase() Returns a new String with the same characters as string, but with any uppercase characters changed to lowercase string.equals(A_String) Returns true if string and A_String are the same, otherwise returns false See tring.html

COMP 110: Spring Quotations Marks in Strings Problem Quotation marks in Java indicate the beginning and end of a String literal String phrase = “Enter a whole number from 1 to 99.”; How to put quotation marks into Strings?

COMP 110: Spring Quotation Marks in Strings Example We’d like to print the message This class is so "fun" But we cannot use System.out.println("This class is so "fun""); because the Java compiler sees it as System.out.println("This class is so "fun"");

COMP 110: Spring Quotation Marks in Strings The way to do this in Java is with the escape character '\' We can use the sequence \" inside a string to indicate a quotation mark Example System.out.println("This class is so \"fun\""); will print to screen This class is so "fun"

COMP 110: Spring Backslashes in Strings If backslash '\' is the escape character, how can I put backslashes into Strings? Use the sequence \\ for this Example System.out.println("This is a backslash \\"); will print to screen This is a backslash \

COMP 110: Spring New Line Sequence The sequence \n starts a new line of text Example System.out.println("Line 1\nLine 2"); will print to screen Line 1 Line 2

COMP 110: Spring Escape Characters \"\" Double quote \'\' Single quote \\Backslash \nNew line \rCarriage return \tTab

COMP 110: Spring String Exercise What is the output? System.out.println("abc\ndef"); abc def System.out.println("abc\\ndef"); abc\ndef

COMP 110: Spring Programming Demo Fahrenheit to Celsius Converter Problem Given a temperature in degrees Fahrenheit, convert to a temperature in degree Celsius

COMP 110: Spring Programming Demo Fahrenheit to Celsius Steps Pseudocode Programming Testing/Debugging

COMP 110: Spring The Algorithm Comes directly from the formula for conversion tempC = (5/9)(tempF – 32)

COMP 110: Spring Fahrenheit to Celsius Pseudocode Ask user for temp in Fahrenheit Convert temp in Fahrenheit to temp in Celsius Output the result
