Java was developed primarily by SUN engineers named James Gosling and Patrick Naughton. Original focus was on small consumer devices Original focus was on small consumer devices Growth of the Web and its write once, run anywhere ability made it the ubiquitous internet language that it is today.

Java is an Object Oriented Programming [OOP] Language Java is a very popular language for building applications for the Web Java is robust, portable, architecture neutral, multithreaded “WORA” - Write Once Run Anywhere “WORM” – Write Once Run Many

8. 12 October 201512 October 201512 October 2015 Copyright Box Hill Institute Objects and Actions object is anything world is a set of interacting objects objects have characteristics (attributes) and its value Instance – is an object that is used by an application objects have state with certain attributes and values objects have behaviour (actions - methods)

9. 12 October 201512 October 201512 October 2015 Copyright Box Hill Institute Objects and Methods Method is a set of instruction describing the operations performed by an object An object is an entity that stores data and can take actions defined by methods A method is an action which can be performed by an object. The action takes place as the result of a method call also known a method invocation. The calling objects calls or invokes the method.

14. 12 October 201512 October 201512 October 2015 Copyright Box Hill Institute Documentation Documentation can impact the success or failure of a project Documentation does two things: aid the design process communicate your design and describe your implementation to other programmers

15. 12 October 201512 October 201512 October 2015 Copyright Box Hill Institute Good Design Documentation Meaningful name for variables Use Comments according to Java Coding Standards Indentation Named Constants Simple Program Structure Reduce class load

16. 12 October 201512 October 201512 October 2015 Copyright Box Hill Institute Design Process I. I. Comments serve as the first step of class design II. II. Turn comments into pseudocode III. III. Refine pseudocode into java code IV. IV. Comments help with debugging

17. 12 October 201512 October 201512 October 2015 Copyright Box Hill Institute Comments // single line comment /* block comment over many lines */

18. 12 October 201512 October 201512 October 2015 Copyright Box Hill Institute Comments /** java doc comment, used by the javadoc tool. Can include single line comments and html tags. eg monos paced text Some html tags cause problems in javadoc eg header and frame tags All javadoc comments must be placed before declarations. Javadoc comments placed within code braces will be ignored by the javadoc tool */

19. 12 October 201512 October 201512 October 2015 Copyright Box Hill Institute Comments Best to start program development with comments rather than spending a lot of time after the code is written. Why? Best to start program development with comments rather than spending a lot of time after the code is written. Why? Java documentation is available at java.sun.com/docs and should be installed in the jdk#.#.#/doc directory Java documentation is available at java.sun.com/docs and should be installed in the jdk#.#.#/doc directory

20. 12 October 201512 October 201512 October 2015 Copyright Box Hill Institute Elements Java is case sensitive; FRED differs from fred and also from Fred Keywords – must be lower case there are 48 keywords NB true, false, null are literals, not keywords Identifiers – labels for data – first character must be alpha – no space – case sensitive – no keywords

23. 12 October 201512 October 201512 October 2015 Copyright Box Hill Institute Variables Variables represent data in storage locations in memory The data stored by a variable is called its value The value is stored in the memory location The value can be changed. Variable consist of 5 parts - identifier (name) - reference (memory address) - data type - scope (lifespan) - value (literal)
