2. Arrays  Hold sequences of values of primitive types or objects  When an array is created, its values are initialized  zero, false, or null int [] scores; scores = new int [10]; for (int i = 0; i < scores.length; i++) scores[i] = i * i; for (int n: scores)// a “for each” loop System.out.println (n);

3. Arrays (Cont.) String[] names = {“Ed”, “Bob”, “Cindy”}; System.out.println( names[0] ); if ( names[0].equals(“Ed”)) … String[] list = new String[5]; list[0] = new String(“Tom”); … A two-dimensional array int rows = 10, cols = 20; int [][] table = new int[rows][cols];

4. Partially Filled Arrays - Loading int numValues = 0; Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in); while (in.hasNextDouble()) { if (numValues < values.length) { values[numValues] = in.nextDouble(); numValues ++; } for (int i = 0; i < numValues; i++) { System.out.println(values[i]); }

5. Class ArrayList  A sequence of objects  Can grow and shrink as needed  A generic class with a type parameter ArrayList classlist = new ArrayList (); classlist.add ( “Ed” ); classlist.add ( “Bob” ); classlist.add ( “Cindy” );

6. ArrayList (Cont.) for (int i = 0; i < classlist.size(); i++ ) { String name = classlist.get(i); System.out.println (name); // Ed, Bob, Cindy } for ( String name: classlist ) System.out.println (name); classlist.set (1, “Tim”);// Ed, Tim, Cindy classlist.add (1, “Ron”);// Ed, Ron, Tim, Cindy classlist.remove (2);// Ed, Ron, Cindy

7. Wrapper Classes

8. Auto Boxing and Unboxing int n = 25; Integer num = n; // same as num = new Integer (n); Double rate = 5.25; double d = rate; rate = rate + i; Boolean isDone = new Boolean(false); ArrayList values = new ArrayList (); values.add(29.95); double x = values.get(0);// inefficient

9. Arrays vs. ArrayLists  When do you use which?  Element type  Number of elements  Basic operations  Locate  insert (at the front, in the middle, at the end)  delete (the first, a middle one, the last)

10. Common Array Algorithm - Search int pos = 0; boolean found = false; while (pos < values.size() && !found) { if (values.get(pos) > 100) { found = true; } else { pos++; } } if (found) { System.out.println("Position: " + pos); } else { System.out.println("Not found"); }

11. Common Array Algorithm - Insert ArrayList: use method add Unordered array: if (numValues < values.length) { values[numValues] = newElement; numValues++; }

12. Common Array Algorithm - Insert  Ordered array: if (numValues < values.length) { for (int i = numValues ; i > pos; i--) values[i] = values[i - 1]; values[pos] = newElement; numValues ++; }

13. Common Array Algorithm – Array Copy double[] values = new double[6];... // Fill array double[] prices = values;? double[] prices = Arrays.copyOf(values, values.length); values = Arrays.copyOf(values, 2 * values.length);

14. Classes  Each has a responsibility  Each provides services for clients  Objects are instances of a class  Members  Instance variablesprivate  Instance methodsprivate  Instance methodspublic- interface

15. Method Call  A call obj.doIt (num, name);  Method definition public void doIt (int n, String s) { n += 4; System.out.println (“Start with “ + s.charAt(0)); }  Every thing is passed by value  What if having s = “Mr. “+ s; in method doIt()? “tom” 6 6

16. Overloaded Methods // Methods of class MyClass public void doIt (int n) { … } public void doIt (char c) { … } public void doIt (int n, String s) { … } // Method calls MyClass obj = new MyClass(); obj.doIt(5); obj.doIt(‘a’); obj.doIt(“xyz”);

17. Constructors public class A { private int num; private String name; public A () { this(10, “tom”); } public A (int n) { num = n; } public A (int n, String s) { num = n; name = s; } … } // use of constructors A ref1 = new A(); A ref2 = new A(5); A ref3 = new A(10, “tom”);

18. Static Members of a Class  Instance variable  One copy per object  Static variable  One copy per class  Static Method  Operating on class-wide data  Examples  Integer.MAX_VALUE, Integer.MIN_VALUE  Math.pow(x, y), Math.sqrt(x)

19. Scope of Local Variables public class RectangleTester { public static double area(Rectangle rect) { double r = rect.getWidth() * rect.getHeight(); return r; } public static void main(String[] args) { Rectangle r = new Rectangle(5, 10, 20, 30); double a = area(r); System.out.println(r); } }

20. Scope of Local Variables if (x >= 0) { double r = Math.sqrt(x);... } // Scope of r ends here else { Rectangle r = new Rectangle(5, 10, 20, 30); // OK - it is legal to declare another r here... }

21. Overlapping Scope public class Coin {... public double getExchangeValue(double exchangeRate) { double value;... return value; } private String name; private double value; }  Which one to refer to if using value in this method?  How to refer to instance variable value in this method?

22. Built-in Reference this  Referring to an object from within public A (int num, String name) { this.num = num; this.name = name; }  Referring to the current object A x = new A(10, “bob”); A y = new A(5, “ed”); x.setNum(1);

24. Packages - Organizing related classes To put classes in a package package cis500.proj1; public class MyClass {... } To use class with importing import cis500.proj1.MyClass; Or import cis500.proj1.*;
