Introduction to Programming 1 1
Objectives
At the end of the lesson, the student should be able to:
Introduction to Programming 1 2
Definitions
● Console
– This is where you type in commands
– Examples are Terminal (Linux), MSDOS Command Prompt
(Windows)
Introduction to Programming 1 3
Definitions
● Text Editor
– Examples: Notepad, Wordpad, Vi
Introduction to Programming 1 4
Definitions
● Integrated Development Environment or IDE
– a programming environment integrated into a software application
that provides a GUI builder, a text or code editor, a compiler and/or
interpreter and a debugger.

My First Java Program
1 public class Hello {
2
3 /**
4 * My first Java program
5 */
6 public static void main( String[] args ){
7
8 //prints the string “Hello world” on screen
9 System.out.println(“Hello world”);
10
11 }
12 }
Introduction to Programming 1 6
Using Text Editor and
Console
● NOTE:
– This will be demonstrated by the teacher
– Environment used: Red Hat Linux
– For Windows Environment: Refer to Appendix B in your student
Manual
Introduction to Programming 1 7
Using Text Editor and
Console
● Step 1: Start the Text Editor
– To start the Text Editor in Linux, click on Menu-> Accessories-> Text
Editor
Introduction to Programming 1 8
Using Text Editor and
Console
● Step 4: Save your Java Program
– Filename: Hello.java
– Folder name: MYJAVAPROGRAMS
– To open the Save dialog box, click on the File menu found on the
menubar and then click on Save.
– If the folder MYJAVAPROGRAMS does not exist yet, create the
folder
Introduction to Programming 1 9
Using Text Editor and
Console
● Step 5: Compiling your program
– Go to the Terminal window
– Go to the folder MYJAVAPROGRAMS where you saved the
program
– To compile a Java program, we type in the command:
javac [filename]
– So in this case, type in:
javac Hello.java
Introduction to Programming 1 10
Using Text Editor and
Console
● Step 6: Running the Program
– To run your Java program, type in the command:
java [filename without the extension]
– so in the case of our example, type in:
java Hello
– You can see on the screen after running the program:
"Hello world!"
Introduction to Programming 1 11
Errors : Syntax Errors
● Syntax Errors Syntax
– errors are usually typing errors
Introduction to Programming 1 12
Example: Syntax Error
Introduction to Programming 1 13
Example: Syntax Error
Introduction to Programming 1 14
Errors: Runtime Errors
● Run-time Errors
– errors that will not display until you run or execute your program
– Even programs that compile successfully may display wrong
answers if the programmer has not thought through the logical
processes and structures of the program.
– Examples:
● You want your program to print 100 strings of “Hello world”, but it only printed 99.
● Your program gets an input from the user, but the user inputted a character, and
so your program crashes/terminates
Introduction to Programming 1 15
Using Netbeans
● NOTE:
– This will be demonstrated by the teacher
– Environment used: Red Hat Linux
– For Windows Environment: Refer to Appendix B in your student
Manual
Introduction to Programming 1 16
Using Netbeans
● Step 1: Run Netbeans
– Two ways to run Netbeans:
● Through command-line using terminal
● By just clicking on the shortcut button found on the main menu
Introduction to Programming 1 17
Using Netbeans
● Step 2: Make a project
– To make a project, click on File-> New Project
– After doing this, a New Project dialog will appear
– On the right pane of the project dialog, click on Java Application and
click on the NEXT button
– A New Application dialog will appear. Edit the Project Name part and
type in "HelloApplication"
Introduction to Programming 1 18
Using Netbeans
● Step 2: Make a project (continuation)
– Now try to change the Application Location, by clicking on the
BROWSE button
– A Select Project Location dialog will then appear. Double-click on
the root folder.
– The contents of the root folder are then displayed. Now double-click
on the MYJAVAPROGRAMS folder and click on the OPEN button
– Finally, on the Create Main Class textfield, type in Hello as the main
class' name, and then click on the FINISH button
Introduction to Programming 1 19
Using Netbeans
● Step 3: Type in your program
●
Introduction to Programming 1 20
Using Netbeans
– Now, try to modify the code generated by Netbeans.
– Ignore the other parts of the program for now, as we will explain the
details of the code later.
– Insert the code
System.out.println("Hello world!");
after the statement,
//TODO code application logic here.
Introduction to Programming 1 21
Using Netbeans
● Step 4: Compile your program
– To compile your program, just click on Build -> Build Main Project
– If there are no errors in your program, you will see a build successful
message on the output window
