MODULE 2: Introduction to JAVA
Basic concepts of object oriented programming

Object:
This is the basic unit of object oriented programming. That is both data and method that
operate on data are bundled as a unit called as object. It is a real world entity (Ex:a
person, book, tables, chairs etc…)
Class:
Class is a collection of objects or class is a collection of instance variables and methods.
When you define a class, you define a blueprint for an object. This doesn't actually define
any data, but it does define what the class name means, that is, what an object of the
class will consist of and what operations can be performed on such an object.
Abstraction:
Data abstraction refers to, providing only essential information to the outside word and
hiding their background details ie. to represent the needed information in program without
presenting the details.
For example, a database system hides certain details of how data is stored and created
and maintained. Similar way, C++ classes provides different methods to the outside world
without giving internal detail about those methods and data.
Encapsulation:
Encapsulation is placing the data and the methods/functions that work on that data in
the same place. While working with procedural languages, it is not always clear which
functions work on which variables but object-oriented programming provides you
framework to place the data and the relevant functions together in the same object.
Inheritance:
One of the most useful aspects of object-oriented programming is code reusability. As
the name suggests Inheritance is the process of forming a new class from an existing class
that is from the existing class called as base class, new class is formed called as derived
class.
This is a very important concept of object oriented programming since this feature helps
to reduce the code size.
Polymorphism:
The ability to use a method/function in different ways in other words giving different
meaning for method/ functions is called polymorphism. Poly refers many. That is a single
method/function functioning in many ways different upon the usage is called polymorphism.
Java History:
Java is a general-purpose object oriented programming language developed by sun

Microsystems of USA in the year 1991. The original name of Java is Oak. Java was designed for the
development of the software for consumer electronic devices like TVs, VCRs, etc.
Introduction: Java is a general purpose programming language. We can develop two types
of Java application. They are:
(1). Stand alone Java application.
(2). Web applets.
Stand alone Java application: Stand alone Java application are programs written in
Java to carry out certain tasks on a certain stand alone system. Executing a stand-alone
Java program contains two phases:
(a) Compiling source coded into bytecode using javac compiler.
(b) Executing the bytecodede program using Java interpreter.
Java applet: Applets are small Java program developed for Internet application. An
applet located on a distant computer can be downloaded via Internet and execute on local
computer.
Java and Internet:

Java is strongly associated with Internet. Internet users can use Java to create applet
programs and run them locally using a “Java enabled Browser” such as “hotjave”. They can also use a
Java enabled browser to download an applet locating on any computer any where in the internet and
run them locally.
Internet users can also set their web-sites containing Java applets that could be used by
other remote users of Internet. The ability of the Java applets to hitch a ride on the information
makes Java a unique programming language for Internet.
Java Environment:
Java environment includes a large number of development tools and hundreds of classes and
methods. The Java development tools are part of the systems known as Java development kit (JDK)
and the classes and methods are part of the Java standard library known as Java standard Library
(JSL) also known as application program interface (API).
Java Features:
(1) Compiled and Interpreted
(2) Architecture Neutral/Platform independent and portable
(3) Object oriented
(4) Robust and secure.
(5) Distributed.
(6) Familiar, simple and small.
(7) Multithreaded and interactive.
(8) High performance
(9) Dynamic and extendible.
1. Compiled and Interpreted

Usually a computer language is either compiled or interpreted. Java combines both
these approaches; first java compiler translates source code into bytecode
instructions. Bytecodes are not machine instructions and therefore, in the second
stage, java interpreter generates machine code that can be directly executed by the
machine that is running the java program.
2. Architecture Neutral/Platform independent and portable

The concept of Write-once-run-anywhere (known as the Platform independent) is one
of the important key feature of java language that makes java as the most powerful
language. Not even a single language is idle to this feature but java is closer to this
feature. The programs written on one platform can run on any platform provided the
platform must have the JVM.
3. Object oriented
In java everything is an Object. Java can be easily extended since it is based on the
Object model.java is a pure object oriented language.
4. Robust and secure.

Java is a robust language; Java makes an effort to eliminate error situations
by emphasizing mainly on compile time error checking and runtime checking.
Because of absence of pointers in java we can easily achieve the security.
5. Distributed.
Java is designed for the distributed environment of the internet.java applications can
open and access remote objects on internet as easily as they can do in the local
system.
6. Familiar, simple and small.

Java is designed to be easy to learn. If you understand the basic concept of
OOP java would be easy to master.
7. Multithreaded and interactive.

With Java's multi-threaded feature it is possible to write programs that can do many
tasks simultaneously. This design feature allows developers to construct smoothly
running interactive applications.
8. High performance
Because of the intermediate bytecode java language provides high performance
9. Dynamic and extendible.

Java is considered to be more dynamic than C or C++ since it is designed to adapt to an
evolving environment. Java programs can carry extensive amount of run-time information
that can be used to verify and resolve accesses to objects on run-time.
Java Development kits(java software:jdk1.6): Java development kit comes with a number of
Java development tools. They are:
(1) Appletviewer: Enables to run Java applet.
(2) javac: Java compiler.
(3) java : Java interpreter.
(4) javah : Produces header files for use with native methods.
(5) javap : Java disassembler.
(6) javadoc : Creates HTML documents for Java source code file.
(7) jdb : Java debugger which helps us to find the error.
Java Building and running Process:
1. Open the notepad and type the below program

Simple Java program:
Example:
class Sampleone
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
System.out.println(“Welcome to JAVA”);
}
}
Description:
(1) Class declaration: “class sampleone” declares a class, which is an object-
oriented construct. Sampleone is a Java identifier that specifies the
name of the class to be defined.
(2) Opening braces: Every class definition of Java starts with opening
braces and ends with matching one.
(3) The main line: the line “ public static void main(String args[]) “ defines a
method name main. Java application program must include this main. This
is the starting point of the interpreter from where it starts executing. A
Java program can have any number of classes but only one class will have
the main method.
(4) Public: This key word is an access specifier that declares the main
method as unprotected and therefore making it accessible to the all
other classes.
(5) Static: Static keyword defines the method as one that belongs to the
entire class and not for a particular object of the class. The main must
always be declared as static.
(6) Void: the type modifier void specifies that the method main does not
return any value.
(7) The println: It is a method of the object out of system class. It is
similar to the printf or cout of c or c++.
2. Save the above program with .java extension, here file name and class name should
be same, ex: Sampleone.java,
3. Open the command prompt and Compile the above program
javac Sampleone.java
From the above compilation the java compiler produces a bytecode(.class file)
4. Finally run the program through the interpreter
java Sapleone.java
Output of the program:

Welcome to JAVA
Implementing a Java program: Java program implementation contains three stages.

They are:
1. Create the source code.
2. Compile the source code.
3. Execute the program.
(1) Create the source code:
1. Any editor can be used to create the Java source code.
2. After coding the Java program must be saved in a file having the same name of
the class containing main() method.
3. Java code file must have .Java extension.
(2) Compile the source code:

1. Compilation of source code will generate the bytecode.
2. JDK must be installed before completion.
3. Java program can be compiled by typing javac <filename>.java
4. It will create a file called <filename>.class containing the bytecode.
(3) Executing the program:

1. Java program once compiled can be run at any system.
2. Java program can be execute by typing Java <filename>
JVM(Java Virtual Machine)
The concept of Write-once-run-anywhere (known as the Platform independent) is

one of the important key feature of java language that makes java as the most powerful
language. Not even a single language is idle to this feature but java is closer to this
feature. The programs written on one platform can run on any platform provided the
platform must have the JVM(Java Virtual Machine). A Java virtual machine (JVM) is a
virtual machine that can execute Java bytecode. It is the code execution component of
the Java software platform.
More Examples:
Java program with multiple lines:
Example:
import java.lang.math;
class squreroot
{
{
double x = 5;
double y;
y = Math.sqrt(x);
System.out.println(“Y = “ + y);
}
}
Java Program structure: Java program structure contains six stages.

They are:
(1) Documentation section: The documentation section contains a set of comment
lines describing about the program.
(2) Package statement: The first statement allowed in a Java file is a package
statement. This statement declares a package name and informs the compiler that the
class defined here belong to the package.
Package student;
(3) Import statements: Import statements instruct the compiler to load the
specific class belongs to the mentioned package.
Import student.test;
(4) Interface statements: An interface is like a class but includes a group of
method deceleration. This is an optional statement.
(5) Class definition: A Java program may contain multiple class definition The class
are used to map the real world object.
(6) Main method class: The main method creates objects of various classes and
establish communication between them. On reaching to the end of main the program
terminates and the control goes back to operating system.
Java command line arguments: Command line arguments are the parameters that
are supplied to the application program at the time when they are invoked. The main()
method of Java program will take the command line arguments as the parameter of the
args[ ] variable which is a string array.
Example:
Class Comlinetest
{
public static void main(String args[ ] )
{
int count, n = 0;
string str;
count = args.length;
System.out.println ( “ Number of arguments :” + count);
While ( n < count )
{
str = args[ n ];
n = n + 1;
System.out.println( n + “ : “ + str);
}
}
}
Run/Calling the program:
javac Comlinetest.java
java Comlinetest Java c cpp fortran
Output:
1 : Java
2:c
3 : cpp
4 : fortran
Java API:
Java standard library includes hundreds of classes and methods grouped into several
functional packages. Most commonly used packages are:
(a) Language support Package.
(b) Utilities packages.
(c) Input/output packages
(d) Networking packages
(e) AWT packages.
(f) Applet packages.
Java Tokens
Constants: Constants in Java refers to fixed value that do not change during the
execution of program. Java supported constants are given below:
(1) Integer constants: An integer constant refers to a sequence of digits. There

are three types of integer namely decimal integer, octal integer and
hexadecimal integer. For example: 123 -321
(2) Real constants: Any real world number with a decimal point is known as real
constants. For example : 0.0064 12e-2 etc.
(3) Single character constants: A single character constant contains a single
character enclosed with in a pair of single quotes. For ex: ‘m’ ‘5’
(4) String constants : A string constant is a sequence of character enclosed with
double quotes. For ex: “hello” “java” etc.
(5) Backslash character constants: Java supports some backslash constants those
are used in output methods. They are :
1. \b Backspace
2. \f Form feed
3. \n New Line
4. \r Carriage return.
5. \t Horizontal tab.
6. \’ Single quotes.
7. \” Double quotes
8. \\ Back slash
Data Types in Java:
In java, data types are classified into two catagories :
1. Primitive Data type

2. Non-Primitive Data type
Data Type Default Value Default size

boolean False 1 bit
char '\u0000' 2 byte
byte 0 1 byte
short 0 2 byte
int 0 4 byte
long 0L 8 byte
float 0.0f 4 byte
double 0.0d 8 byte
Integers Type: Java provides four types of Integers. They are byte, sort, Int, long. All
these are sign, positive or negative.
Byte: The smallest integer type is byte. This is a signed 8-bit type that has a range
from –128 to 127. Bytes are useful for working with stream or data from a network or file.
They are also useful for working with raw binary data. A byte variable is declared with the
keyword “byte”.
byte b, c;
Short: Short is a signed 16-bit type. It has a range from –32767 to 32767. This
data type is most rarely used specially used in 16 bit computers. Short variables are
declared using the keyword short.
short a, b;
int: The most commonly used Integer type is int. It is signed 32 bit type has a
range from –2147483648 to 2147483648.
int a, b, c;
long: Long is a 64 bit type and useful in all those occasions where Int is not enough.
The range of long is very large.
long a, b;
Floating point types: Floating point numbers are also known as real numbers are useful
when evaluating a expression that requires fractional precision. The two floating-point
data types are float and double.
float: The float type specifies a single precision value that uses 32-bit storage.
Float keyword is used to declare a floating point variable.
float a, b;
double: Double DataTips is declared with double keyword and uses 64-bit value.
Characters: The Java data type to store characters is char. char data type of Java uses
Unicode to represent characters. Unicode defines a fully international character set that
can have all the characters of human language. Java char is 16-bit type. The range is 0 to
65536.
Boolean: Java has a simple type called boolean for logical values. It can have only one of
two possible values. They are true or false.
Key Words: Java program is basically a collection of classes. A class is defined by a set of
declaration statements and methods containing executable statements. Most statement
contains an expression that contains the action carried out on data. The compiler
recognizes the tokens for building up the expression and statements. Smallest individual
units of programs are known as tokens. Java language includes five types of tokens. They
are
(a) Reserved Keyword
(b) Identifiers
(c) Literals.
(d) Operators
(e) Separators.
(1) Reserved keyword: Java language has 60 words as reserved keywords. They
implement specific feature of the language. The keywords combined with
operators and separators according to syntax build the Java language.
(2) Identifiers: Identifiers are programmer-designed token used for naming
classes methods variable, objects, labels etc. The rules for identifiers are
1. They can have alphabets, digits, dollar sign and underscores.
2. They must not begin with digit.
3. Uppercase and lower case letters are distinct.
4. They can be any lengths.
5. Name of all public method starts with lowercase.
6. In case of more than one word starts with uppercase in next word.
7. All private and local variables use only lowercase and underscore.
8. All classes and interfaces start with leading uppercases.
9. Constant identifier uses uppercase letters only.
(3) Literals: Literals in Java are sequence of characters that represents constant
values to be stored in variables. Java language specifies five major types of
Literals. They are:
1. Integer Literals.
2. Floating-point Literals.
3. Character Literals.
4. String Literals.
5. Boolean Literals.
(4) Operators: An operator is a symbol that takes one or more arguments and
operates on them to produce an result.
(5) Separators: Separators are the symbols that indicates where group of code are
divided and arranged. Some of the operators are:
1. Parenthases()
2. Braces{ }
3. Brackets [ ]
4. Semicolon ;
5. Comma ,
6. Period .
Java character set: The smallest unit of Java language are its character set used to
write Java tokens. This character are defined by unicode character set that tries to
create character for a large number of character worldwide.
The Unicode is a 16-bit character coding system and currently supports 34,000
defined characters derived from 24 languages of worldwide.
Variables: A variable is an identifier that denotes a storage location used to store a data
value. A variable may have different value in the different phase of the program. To
declare one identifier as a variable there are certain rules. They are:
1. They must not begin with a digit.

2. Uppercase and lowercase are distinct.
3. It should not be a keyword.

4. White space is not allowed.
Declaring Variable: One variable should be declared before using. The syntax is
Data-type variblaname1, variablename2,. . . . . . . . . . . . . variablenameN;
Initializing a variable: A variable can be initialize in two ways. They are
(a) Initializing by Assignment statements.

(b) Initializing by Read statements.
Initializing by assignment statements: One variable can be initialize using
assignment statements. The syntax is :
Variable-name = Value;
Initialization of this type can be done while declaration.
Initializing by read statements: Using read statements we can get the values in
the variable.
Scope of Variable: Java variable is classified into three types. They are
(a) Instance Variable

(b) Local Variable
(c) Class Variable
Instance Variable: Instance variable is created when objects are instantiated and
therefore they are associated with the object. They take different values for each
object.
Class Variable: Class variable is global to the class and belongs to the entire set of
object that class creates. Only one memory location is created for each class
variable.
Local Variable: Variable declared inside the method are known as local variables.
Local variables are also can be declared with in program blocks. Program blocks can
be nested. But the inner blocks cannot have same variable that the outer blocks are
having.
Arrays in Java
Array which stores a fixed-size sequential collection of elements of the same type.
An array is used to store a collection of data, but it is often more useful to think of an
array as a collection of variables of the same type.
Declaring Array Variables:
To use an array in a program, you must declare a variable to reference the array, and you
must specify the type of array the variable can reference. Here is the syntax for
declaring an array variable:
dataType[] arrayRefVar; or dataType arrayRefVar[];
Example:
The following code snippets are examples of this syntax:
int[] myList; or int myList[];
Creating Arrays:
You can create an array by using the new operator with the following syntax:
arrayRefVar = new dataType[arraySize];
The above statement does two things:
 It creates an array using new dataType[arraySize];

 It assigns the reference of the newly created array to the variable arrayRefVar.
Declaring an array variable, creating an array, and assigning the reference of the array to
the variable can be combined in one statement, as shown below:
dataType[] arrayRefVar = new dataType[arraySize];
Alternatively you can create arrays as follows:
dataType[] arrayRefVar = {value0, value1, ..., valuek};
The array elements are accessed through the index. Array indices are 0-based; that is,
they start from 0 to arrayRefVar.length-1.
Example:
Following statement declares an array variable, myList, creates an array of 10 elements of

double type and assigns its reference to myList:
double[] myList = new double[10];
Following picture represents array myList. Here, myList holds ten double values and the
indices are from 0 to 9.
Processing Arrays:
When processing array elements, we often use either for loop or foreach loop because all
of the elements in an array are of the same type and the size of the array is known.
Example:
Here is a complete example of showing how to create, initialize and process arrays:
public class TestArray

{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
double[] myList = {1.9, 2.9, 3.4, 3.5};
// Print all the array elements

for (int i = 0; i < myList.length; i++) {
System.out.println(myList[i] + " ");
}
// adding all elements

double total = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < myList.length; i++)
{
total += myList[i];
}
System.out.println("Total is " + total);
// Finding the largest element
double max = myList[0];
for (int i = 1; i < myList.length; i++)
{
if (myList[i] > max)
max = myList[i];
}
System.out.println("Max is " + max);
}
}
This would produce the following result:
1.9
2.9
3.4
3.5
Total is 11.7
Max is 3.5
The foreach Loop
JDK 1.5 introduced a new for loop known as for-each loop or enhanced for loop, which
enables you to traverse the complete array sequentially without using an index variable.
Example:
The following code displays all the elements in the array myList:
public class TestArray {
public static void main(String[] args) {

double[] myList = {1.9, 2.9, 3.4, 3.5};
// Print all the array elements
for (double element: myList)

{
System.out.println(element);
}
}
}
This would produce the following result:
1.9
2.9
3.4
3.5
Type Casting: It is often necessary to store a value of one type into the variable of
another type. In these situations the value that to be stored should be casted to
destination type. Type casting can be done in two ways.
Type Casting
Assigning a value of one type to a variable of another type is known as Type Casting.
Example :
int x = 10;
byte y = (byte)x;
In Java, type casting is classified into two types,
 Widening Casting(Implicit)
 Narrowing Casting(Explicitly done)
Widening or Automatic type converion
Automatic Type casting take place when,
 the two types are compatible

 the target type is larger than the source type
Example :
public class Test

{
{
int i = 100;
long l = i; //no explicit type casting required
float f = l; //no explicit type casting required
System.out.println("Int value "+i);
System.out.println("Long value "+l);
System.out.println("Float value "+f);
}
Output :
Int value 100

Long value 100
Float value 100.0
Narrowing or Explicit type conversion
When you are assigning a larger type value to a variable of smaller type, then you need to
perform explicit type casting.
Example :
public class Test

{
{
double d = 100.04;
long l = (long)d; //explicit type casting required

int i = (int)l; //explicit type casting required
System.out.println("Double value "+d);

System.out.println("Long value "+l);
System.out.println("Int value "+i);
Output :
Double value 100.04

Long value 100
Int value 100
Java operators:
Java operators can be categorized into following ways:

(1) Arithmetic operator
(2) Relational operator
(3) Logical operator
(4) Assignment operator
(5) Increment and decrement operator
(6) Conditional operator
(7) Bitwise operator
(8) Special operator.
Arithmetic operator: The Java arithmetic operators are:
+ : Addition
- : Subtraction
 : Multiplication
/ : Division
% : Remainder
Relational Operator:
< : Is less then
<= : Is less then or equals to
 : Is greater then
>= : Is grater then or equals to
== : Is equals to
!= : Is not equal to
Logical Operators:
&& : Logical AND
|| : Logical OR
! : Logical NOT
Assignment Operator:
+= : Plus and assign to
-= : Minus and assign to
*= : Multiply and assign to.
/= : Divide and assign to.
%= : Mod and assign to.
= : Simple assign to.
Increment and decrement operator:
++ : Increment by One {Pre/Post)
-- : Decrement by one (pre/post)
Conditional Operator: Conditional operator is also known as ternary operator.
The conditional operator is :
Exp1 ? exp2 : exp3
Bitwise Operator: Bit wise operator manipulates the data at Bit level. These operators are
used for tasting the bits. The bit wise operators are:
& : Bitwise AND

! : Bitwise OR
^ : Bitwise exclusive OR
~ : One’s Complement.
<< : Shift left.
>> : Shift Right.
>>> : Shift right with zero fill
Example:
Bitwise operator works on bits and performs bit-by-bit operation. Assume if a =
60; and b = 13; now in binary format they will be as follows:
a = 0011 1100
b = 0000 1101
-----------------
a&b = 0000 1100
a|b = 0011 1101
a^b = 0011 0001
~a = 1100 0011
Binary Left Shift Operator. The left operands value is moved left by A << 2 will give 240
<<
the number of bits specified by the right operand. which is 1111 0000
Binary Right Shift Operator. The left operands value is moved right A >> 2 will give 15 which
>>
by the number of bits specified by the right operand. is 1111
Shift right zero fill Operator. The left operands value is moved right
A >>>2 will give 15
>>> by the number of bits specified by the right operand and shifted values
which is 0000 1111
are filled up with zeros.
Special Operator:
Instanceof operator: The instanceof operator is a object refrence operator
that returns true if the object on the right hand side is an instance of the class given in
the left hand side. This operator allows us to determine whether the object belongs to the
particular class or not.
Person instanceof student
The expression is true if the person is a instance of class student.
Dot operator:The dot(.) operator is used to access the instance variable or
method of class object.
Example Programs
class arithmeticop
{
{
float a=20.5f;
float b=6.4f;
System.out.println("a = " + a);
System.out.println("b = " + b );
System.out.println("a + b = " + (a+b));
}
}
class Bitlogic
{
{
String binary[] = {"0000","0001","0010","0011","0100","0101","0110","0111","1000","1001","1010",
"1011","1100","1101","1110","1111"};
int a = 3;
int b = 6;
int c = a | b;
int d = a & b;
int e = a ^ b;
int f = (~a&b)|(a & ~b);
System.out.println("a or b :"+binary[c]);
System.out.println("a and b : "+binary[d]);
System.out.println("a xor b : "+binary[e]);
System.out.println("(~a&b)|(a & ~b) : "+binary[f]);
}
}

default block;
break;
}
Loops In Java: In looping a sequence of statements are executed until a number of time or until
some condition for the loop is being satisfied. Any looping process includes following four steps:
(1) Setting an initialization for the counter.
(2) Execution of the statement in the loop
(3) Test the specified condition for the loop.
(4) Incrementing the counter.
Java includes three loops. They are:
(1) While loop:
The general structure of a while loop is:
Initialization
While (test condition)
{
body of the loop
}
(2) Do loop:
The general structure of a do loop is :
Initialization
do
{
Body of the loop;
}
while ( test condition);
(3) For loop :

The general structure of for loop is:
For ( Initialization ; Test condition ; Increment)
{
body of the loop;
}
More about Loops:

Break Statement: Using “break” statement we can jump out from a loop. The “break”
statement will cause termination of the loop.
Continue statement: The “continue” statement will cause skipping some part of the loop.
Labeled loops: We can put a label for the loop. The label can be any Java recognized
keyword. The process of giving label is
Label-name : while (condition)
{
Body ;
}
Example Program for label break statement
class BreakTest
{
{
boolean t= true;
first:
{
second:
{
third:
{
System.out.println("Third stage");
if(t)
break second;
System.out.println("Third stage complete");
}
System.out.println("Second stage");
}
System.out.println("First stage");
}
}
Example Program for continue statement
class ContinueTest
{
{
outer: for(int i=0;i<10;i++)
{
for(int j = 0; j<10;j++)
{
if(j>i)
{
System.out.println("\n");
continue outer;
}
System.out.print(" "+(i*j));
}
}
//System.out.println(" ");
}
}
Example Program for return statement
class ReturnTest
{
{
boolean t = true;
System.out.println("Before the return");
if(t) return;
System.out.println("After return");
}
}
Java Access Specifiers/Modifiers
Private Access Modifier - private:
Methods, Variables and Constructors that are declared private can only be
accessed within the declared class itself.
Private access modifier is the most restrictive access level. Class and interfaces cannot be
private.
Using the private modifier is the main way that an object encapsulates itself and hides data
from the outside world.
Public Access Modifier - public:
A class, method, constructor, interface etc declared public can be accessed from
any other class. Therefore fields, methods, blocks declared inside a public class can be
accessed from any class belonging to the Java Universe.
However if the public class we are trying to access is in a different package, then the
public class still need to be imported.
Because of class inheritance, all public methods and variables of a class are inherited by
its subclasses.
Protected Access Modifier - protected:
Variables, methods and constructors which are declared protected in a superclass

can be accessed only by the subclasses in other package or any class within the package of
the protected members' class.
The protected access modifier cannot be applied to class and interfaces. Methods, fields
can be declared protected, however methods and fields in a interface cannot be declared
protected.
Default Access Modifier - No keyword:
Default access modifier means we do not explicitly declare an access modifier for a
class, field, method, etc.A variable or method declared without any access control
modifier is available to any other class in the same package. The fields in an interface are
implicitly public static final and the methods in an interface are by default public.
Advantages of JAVA:
• It is an open source, so users do not have to struggle with heavy license fees each year.
• Platform independent.
• Java API's can easily be accessed by developers.
• Java perform supports garbage collection, so memory management is automatic.
• Java always allocates objects on the stack.
• Java embraced the concept of exception specification.
• Multi-platform support language and support for web-services.
• Using JAVA we can develop dynamic web applications.
• It allows you to create modular programs and reusable codes.

Object Oriented Concepts-Module 2 10CS44

MODULE 2: INTRODUCTION TO JAVA

Java and Java applications; Java Development Kit (JDK); Java is

Operators and Expressions: Arithmetic Operators, Bitwise operators,

Control Statements: Selection statements, iteration statements, Jump

MODULE 2: Introduction to JAVA

Basic concepts of object oriented programming

Java is a general-purpose object oriented programming language developed by sun

Java and Internet:

1. Compiled and Interpreted

2. Architecture Neutral/Platform independent and portable

4. Robust and secure.

6. Familiar, simple and small.

7. Multithreaded and interactive.

9. Dynamic and extendible.

Java Building and running Process:

1. Open the notepad and type the below program

Output of the program:

Implementing a Java program: Java program implementation contains three stages.

(2) Compile the source code:

(3) Executing the program:

JVM(Java Virtual Machine)

The concept of Write-once-run-anywhere (known as the Platform independent) is

Java Program structure: Java program structure contains six stages.

(1) Integer constants: An integer constant refers to a sequence of digits. There

Data Types in Java:

In java, data types are classified into two catagories :

1. Primitive Data type

Data Type Default Value Default size

1. They must not begin with a digit.

3. It should not be a keyword.

Data-type variblaname1, variablename2,. . . . . . . . . . . . . variablenameN;

Initializing a variable: A variable can be initialize in two ways. They are

(a) Initializing by Assignment statements.

assignment statements. The syntax is :

Initialization of this type can be done while declaration.

(a) Instance Variable

Declaring Array Variables:

dataType[] arrayRefVar; or dataType arrayRefVar[];

The following code snippets are examples of this syntax:

int[] myList; or int myList[];

arrayRefVar = new dataType[arraySize];

The above statement does two things:

 It creates an array using new dataType[arraySize];

dataType[] arrayRefVar = new dataType[arraySize];

Alternatively you can create arrays as follows:

dataType[] arrayRefVar = {value0, value1, ..., valuek};

Following statement declares an array variable, myList, creates an array of 10 elements of

double[] myList = new double[10];

public class TestArray

// Print all the array elements

// adding all elements

This would produce the following result:

The foreach Loop

public class TestArray {

public static void main(String[] args) {

// Print all the array elements

for (double element: myList)
