1. Introduction to Java

2. 2 A Brief History of OOP and Java Early high level languages –_________________________ More recent languages –BASIC, Pascal, C, Ada, Smalltalk, C++, Java ______________ operating system upgrades prompted the development of the C language Powerful language … but not the best intro to programming –Difficult for ________________________ –Does not fit modern programming strategies

3. 3 A Brief History of OOP and Java Simula-67 was a language which facilitated the modeling of real-world objects –New language feature called the “_________” –A class was ______________ through “inheritance” This was the foundation needed for Object Oriented Programming, OOP Smalltalk-80 used this concept –This is the first truly object-oriented language

4. 4 A Brief History of OOP and Java The C language was extended to include “classes” and in 1983 became _________ The Java language originally conceived to control __________________________ using the OOP concept –Thus, was meant to be platform (or ____________) independent Soon this was seen as well suited for running small programs (_____________) on Internet web pages –By 1995, Netscape browsers began supporting Java applets –This did much to establish Java as a major language

5. 5 A Brief History of OOP and Java Note typical implementation of a program on different platforms Source program Compiler for UNIX platform Compiler for Windows Platform Compiler for Mac OS Platform Executable code for UNIX platform Executable code for Windows platform Executable code for Mac OS platform We need _______________ _______________

6. 6 A Brief History of OOP and Java Contrast compiler with interpreter –Compiler runs ________________, translates to machine code for commands of whole program –_______________ translates one command at a time Java combines these two –Java compiler generates intermediate “___________” –An ____________________ is developed for each platform to interpret the bytecode –Interpreter called the Java Virtual Machine or JVM

7. 7 Phases of Java Programs 1.Edit the source code –filename._____________ 2.Compile the source code into bytecodes –filename.__________ 3.Load the.class file into memory –applications: stored and executed from user's own computer –________________: loaded from a computer somewhere into a browser, executed by the browser

8. 8 Phases of Java Programs 4.Verify bytecodes –check for ___________ and potential security restrictions 5.Computer interprets bytecodes –___________ bytecode at a time

9. 9 Program is created in the editor and stored on disk. Compiler creates bytecodes and stores them on disk. Class loader puts bytecodes in memory. Bytecode verifier confirms that all bytecodes are valid and do not violate Java’s security restrictions. Interpreter reads bytecodes and translates them into a language that the computer can understand, possibly storing data values as the program executes. Phase 1 Phase 2 Phase 3 Phase 4 Phase 5 Disk Editor Compiler Class Loader Disk Primary Memory............ Primary Memory............ Primary Memory............ Bytecode Verifier Interpreter

19. 19 Introduction to Java Application Programs Java is an ____________ oriented programming language –Uses objects to carry out the tasks –Sends to the objects to perform the tasks –Objects interact with each other to do the tasks –An actual object is called an ____________of a class The class is the declaration of or blueprint for the object

20. 20 Introduction to Java Application Programs Object oriented programs: –A collection of object interactions that solve a problem Note the similarity of this definition to the definition for a program

21. // Welcome1.java // A first program in Java import hsa.*; public class Welcome1 { public static void main (String args[]) { Stdout.println("Welcome to Java Programming"); } // end method main } // end class Welcome1 // Welcome1.java // A first program in Java import hsa.*; public class Welcome1 { public static void main (String args[]) { Stdout.println("Welcome to Java Programming"); } // end method main } // end class Welcome1 Java program Program Output Comments Begins class definition for class Welcome1 Every Java program has at least one user-defined class

22. 22 // Welcome1.java // A first program in Java import hsa.*; public class Welcome1 { public static void main (String args[]) { Stdout.println("Welcome to Java Programming"); } // end method main } // end class Welcome1 Java program Part of every Java application Applications begin executing at main Saving files File name is class name and.java extension Welcome1.java Parenthesis indicate main is a _______________ Java applications contain one or more methods

23. 23 Class Declaration Syntax: class ClassName extends Object { Declarations of class members } Note the extends clause –specifies that the ClassName _________________ attributes and behaviors of Object –also it will ___________ new attributes and behaviors –ClassName is the subclass or derived class –_________________ is the superclass or base class

24. 24 Class Members Specified between outermost set of curly braces { … } Members can be –___________________ that store values –methods which perform ______________ on the variables The main method’s declaration public static void main (String [ ] args) { a list of Java statements }  First statement of the program executed is first of these statements  Program terminates at last of these statements  First statement of the program executed is first of these statements  Program terminates at last of these statements

25. 25 Java program Exactly one method must be called main Methods can __________________ and return information –____________ means main returns no information –For now, mimic main 's first line public static void main( String args[] )
