Java Introduction
Sun Micro Systems incorporations has divided java into 3 parts.

i. ii. iii.

Java SE ( Standard Edition ) Java EE ( Enterprise Edition ) Java ME ( Micro Edition or Mobile Edition )

Java SE (Standard Edition): JSE deals with developing standard applications for a network and also exploring java Library. In personal system users develops a program and compile then run it, this is standalone. This system will not get connected to any network (individual). Application for networks means writing program for network may be LAN, WAN (System in Network) Java Library: This is an in-built feature; means need not to re-develop for present program. It consists different new features, interfaces, classes etc.

Java SE is First part of Java. What is Core Java? See Above (Java SE). Java EE (Enterprise Edition): JEE deals with developing business solutions for internet and any network. To do Business on internet through a website we need JAVA EE. Java ME (Micro Edition or Mobile Edition): JME deals with developing Embedded System and Wireless Applications.

Embedded means inserting (installing) a developed Software into a Hardware. Big IC ->made-up of semiconductors material, ex: silicon chips or Germanium. The program written by the programmers will be stored in those chips. This type will be done by using Java ME.

Wireless Markup language (WML) is used in wireless programming. Now a day Software Using Wireless Devices is developed by Java ME. Electronic device works with electricity and use electronic circuits components.

Computer is an Electronic Device; it can understand only two things. The Presence of voltage is represented by 1.obsence of Voltage is represented by 0 these 0 and 1 are called Bits (Binary Digits).

Microprocessor will Understand Binary Digits

Machine Code: Representing instruction and data using binary digit is called Machine Language or Machine Code. Computers can understand only machine codes. Translator: Translator is a Program that converts a computer program into machine code. There are three types of Translators.
i. ii. iii. Interpreters Compiler Assembler

Interpreters: Compiler: Assemblers: It converts assembly language program into machine code. Compiler is faster than the interpreter. Extension name represents in which language user developed program. Dot obj (.obj) is the extension. It converts all lines into machine code and gives to microprocessor. This type of translator is fast when process the code. It converts line by line and only one line at a time. This type of translator is very slow when converting the code.

iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR

What is object Code?

Object code is nothing but machine code equivalent of source code. TC/lib is the directory. (.exe) Dot Exe Code is Full-fledged machine code. It consists of the code of header file. (.obj) Dot file will simply converts the user code into machine code but not gives the actual code of header file.

What is difference between object code and executable code?

Executable code = object + Header File code

#include<stdio.h> Main() { c=a+b; Printf(c); }

1111 0000 stdio.h 101010() { 1100 1100 1011 1010 0000 0110 0000 1100 (10) }

Why microprocessor will not execute (.obj) file?

Because it will not contain entire code of Header File.

Microprocessors cannot be understand all the instructions of the another microprocessor. So, when the processors are different in different system, same .exe code will not be executed by all different systems. But users code can be run on different system of different microprocessors. Java is an OPENSOURCE from SUNMICRO SYSTEMS put the source code in internet. Microsoft download that and developed Microsoft Dot Net (.Net). Every OS will store data and instruction in different format. So .exe file will not be run on different OS. C, C++ programs are system dependent/plat form dependent. Because those programmers are executable only on that computer system where they are developed. Why C, C++ are not suitable for internet?
Because C, C++ are platform Dependent they are not suitable for internet.

What are Byte Code instructions?

Byte code is a highly optimized set of instructions designed to be executed by the Java runtime system, which is called the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). There are 200 instructions are create in java. The size of each instruction is 1- byte.

These are called Byte code instructions.

iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR 5

Byte code instructions are a fixed set of instructions representing all operations. These instructions are developed by java Soft people. The size of each instructions is 1 byte.

JVM is a program or it is software. It does not create .exe file

Byte code is a system independent.it is a platform independent. JVM is system dependent, platform dependent, it is written in C Language.

What is difference between .exe file and .Class file?

.exe file contains machine code to understandable to the process. .class file contains byte code to understandable to the JVM .exe file is System dependent, platform dependent. .class file is system independent, platform independent. Java programs are executable on any computer system.it means java is system independent (platform independent).so java is highly suitable for internet.

Security problems of Data on Internet: i. ii. iii. iv. v. Eaves Dropping Tampering Impersonation Virus Digital Signature Reading other data illegally. Reading and modifying other data illegally. A person acting as another person or interact. It is a program that damages data, Software & Hardware of a PC Exe: images, audio, Videos etc. Digital Signature: It is a data file, it contains personal Id Information

Eaves Dropping: Tampering: Impersonation: Virus:

By using java on internet we can create high level secured systems, By eliminating, Eaves Dropping This is the reason java is suitable for internet.

Features of Java: 1. Simple to learn 2. Object Oriented 3. Distributed 4. Robust - (Strong ) 5. Secured 6. Architecture Neutral 7. Portable 8. Interpreted 9. High Performance 10. Multithreaded 11. Dynamic

Simple to learn: Java is a simple programming language to learning & practicing java is easy because of the resemblance with C & C++, also complex topic of c and C++ (like Pointers, Hieratical Inheritance & Operator Overloading) are eliminated in java. Why Pointer are Eliminated in java?
Because Pointers leads to confusion for a programmer Pointer easily crash the program Pointers are security threat for data because of these problems pointer are eliminated.

Object Oriented: Unlike C++, java is a purely Objected Oriented Programming language, java Programs use Objects and Classes. Object: An object is anything that exist physical form or physically exist in the real world. An Object contains Properties and can perform Actions. Properties are represented by variables. Actions are represented by Methods. An Object contains variable and methods.

iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR

Class: A class is a group name; that specifies properties and actions of an object. A class also has properties and actions. A class also contains variable and methods.

Class does not exist physically, but an object can exists physically. An object is an Instance of a class i.e. A Physical Form. Class is a plan or model to create objects, a class can exist without an Object. An object cannot exist without a class.

Distributed: Information is distributed on various computers on a network, using java we can write program which capture information and distributes it to clients. Robust - (Strong): Java programs will not crash easily because of its exception handling and its memory management feature. What is Memory Management feature in java?
In java there is a JVM (Java Virtual Machine) JVMs class loader subsystem memory De-allocation. JVMs garbage collection.

Secured: Java enables the construction of virus free & Temper Free system Architecture Neutral: Javas byte code is not machine dependent; it can be run on any machine with any processors and with any OS. Portable: Java programs give the same result on any machine; i.e. its byte code will help the programmer to get exact output for a java program which is executed on any machine. Interpreted: Java program are compiled to generate the byte code, this byte code can be interpreted by the interpreter in JVM.

iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR

High Performance: Along with interpreter, there is JIT (Just in Time) compiler in JVM which enhance the speed of execution.

Java Virtual Machine Architecture (or) JVM Block Diagram

JVM is a program which is written by the Java Soft People. In JVM, class loader subsystem does the following task (work): It loads the dot class (.class) file from the hard disk into the memory of the computer. It verifies the byte code instructions. Then it will allot the memory required by the java program.
iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR 9

The memory allots by the class loader subsystem is divided into Five parts, called Run Time Data Areas. They are 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Method Area Heap Memory Java Stacks PC Registers Native Method Stacks

Method Area: Class code, method code and static variable are stored in method area. Heap Memory: Object are created in the heap memory, here we can create any no.of objects. Heap memory is a huge memory block in JVM. Java Stacks: These are the memory areas where java methods are executed.java stacks are divided into frames and on each frame a separate method is executed. PC registers (Program Counters): These registers store the memory address of the next machine code instructions to be executed by the microprocessors. Native Method Area: These are the memory areas where native methods (C, C++ functions and programs) are executed.

Native method interface is a program that copies native method libraries Like C, C++ Header files into the JVM Multithreaded: We can create several processors in java, called threads this is an essential feature to design server side programs. Dynamic: We can develop programs in java which dynamically interact with the user on internet Ex: Applets.

Comments: A comment represents description about the features of programs. These are non-executable statements by the JVM. The advantage of writing comments is to increase readability and understandability of executable statements in the program by the programmer. There are three types of comments 1. 2. Single Line comments Ex: // it represents the Single Line Comments. Multi Line comments Ex: /* it represents The Multi Line Comments */ Java Documentation comments Ex: /** it represents The Java Documentation Comments. Using these comments we can create API Documentation from a Java programs */

3.

What is API Document? API (Application Programming Interface) documentation is a file that contains discretion of all the features of softwares, a product, or a Technology. API Document is created by using the java doc compiler. Ex.prg: 1

Sava the java program as First.java (mention the extension as .java)

iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR 11

Main Method is entry point to JVM to start execution of a java program. A parameter is a variable to receive data from outside, so String arg [] is a main method parameters. JVM wants a main method argument as Sstring from only. Arguments: The data or values passed to any method.

To call a method in java there are two ways: 1. Create an object to the class Class_name Obj = new class_ name (); 2. Then call method using object Obj.method (); Static Methods: A static method is a method that can be called without using any object. These methods are called using class_name.method_name. Public: About It is available to outside programs or JVM. System.out.println (. /); printStream Obj = new printStream (System. out); Obj.print (../); System. out returns printStream object default that object represents standard output device (Monitor). Here out is a Static Variable in System class. System.in returns the inputStream object by default it represents standard input device (Key Board). Here in is a Static Variable in System class. To Execute the First.java Program: C:\User\renu\>javac First.java C:\ User\renu\>java First

What is JRE & JDK? JRE Java Runtime Environment. JDK Java Developer Kit
JRE = JVM + java library. JDK = JRE + JVM +javac

Ex.prg: 2 To find the Sum of two nos. main (int arg[]) this main method does not treated as java main method by JVM, because JVM wants a main method arguments as String form only.

Print () -: Display the output and then keeps the cursor in the same line. Pritln () -: Display the output and then throws the cursor in the next line. These both the methods are belong to the Printstream class. Output:

Naming conventions: Java is a case sensitive language. The rules to be followed by the programmers by writing class name, method name, and variable declaration etc. in the java programs. There are six rules in the java naming conventions Package Names in java are written in all small letters. Ex: java.awt; java.io; javax.swing; 2. Class Names & Interface Names are start with capital letters. Ex: String DataInputStream ActionListener 3. Method Names start with a small letters, then each word start with capital letters. Ex: println () readLine () getNumberInstance () 4. Variable also fallows the method Naming convention rule (i.e. Method name rules) Ex: empName emp_Net_Sal cityName 5. Constant variable name should be written using all capital letters Ex: PI MAX_VALUE Font.BOLD 6. All Key words should be written in all small latters Ex: public void import Some Important packages of Core Java: Java. lang.*; This package got primary classes and interfaces essential for java program. It contains or consists of wrapper classes, String, Threads etc. Wrapper Classes: These are the classes useful to convert ordinary classes to objects Threads: Executing the classes is called a thread. Java.util.*; This package contains useful classes and interfaces like Stacks, LinkedList, HashTable, Arrays etc.

Java.io.*; input - output This package handles files and input output related tasks or operations. We can read or write the java package using this package. Java.awt.*; This packages helps to develop GUI (Graphical User Interfaces) applications. It consists of important sub-packages like java.awt.event.*; Javax.swing.*; Javax is extends class to java.awt.*; This package helps to develop GUI (Graphical User Interfaces) applications. Javax.net.*; A client is a machine that receives services from a network. A Server is a machine that provides services to other computers in a network.

Using java.net.*; Package we can write client server programming can be done using these packages. Javax.applets.*; Applets are programs which come from a server into a client and get executed on the client machine. Javax.sql.*; This package helps to connect to database like oracle, and utilizes them in java programs. This package supports Structure Query Language (SQL). An applet is dynamically interactive programs Applets are client side programs

Data type & Literals

A Data Type represents the type of data stored into a variable or memory. There are five data type as follows 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Integer Data Types Float Data Types Character Data Types String Data Types Boolean Data Types

Integer Data Types: These data types represent numbers without decimal point like 10, -20, 9600, 0 etc. Data Types Byte Short Int Memory Size 1 byte 2 byte 4 byte Min & Max Values -128 to +127 -32768 to +32767 -2147483648 to +2147483647 -9223372036854775808 +9223372036854775807 9.2x1018 to 9.2x1018 byet rno = 101; long sal = 340000; int x=20; A Literal represents a value directly stored into a variable i.e. roll_no=101. Float Data Type: Single Point These data types represent numbers with decimal point like 10.0, -20.12, 96.00, 0.01 etc. Data Types float (Single precision) double (double precision) Ex: Memory Size 4 byte 8 byte Min & Max Values -1.4e-47 to +1.4e48 -4.9e-324 to +1.8e308 Ex: to

Character Data Type: These data types represent a single character like A, a, 1,*, %, , -, , @ etc. Data Types Char Ex: char ch = X; char at = @; Memory Size 2 byte Min & Max Values 0 to 65535

What is Unicode System? A 16-bit character set standard, designed to include characters appearing in most languages including Chinese, Japanese, etc.
Unicode is a standard to include alphabets from all human languages into java. Unicode system uses 2 bytes of memory to represents a single character.

String Data Type: A String represents group of characters like renu kumar, AP 16X 5124, iNet etc. String name = iNet Solv; string str = new string (Vijayawada); A string is a data type as well as a class because every class is a user defined data type. Boolean Data Type: This data type represents two values, either true or false or binary values like 1 or 0. Ex: boolean response = true; boolean request = false; Ex:

Useful: ASCII -: American Standard Code for Information Interchange A code for information exchange between computers made by different companies; A string of 7 binary digits represents each character; used in most microcomputers

Operators
An operator is a symbol that can perform an operation on operands (variable); Operators are convenient to program (or) to do convenient to do programming. If an operator acts on a single variable (Operand) then it is called as Unary operator. If an operator acts on a two variables (Operands) then it is called as Binary operator. If an operator acts on a three variables (Operands) then it is called as ternary operator.

There are twelve Operators as follows 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. Arithmetic Operators Unary Operators Incremental Operators Decremented Operators Assignment Operators Relational Operators Logical Operators Boolean Operators Bitwise Operators Conditional Operators

11. Membership or (.)Dot Operators 12. Instanceof Operators 13. New Operators Arithmetic Operators: These operators performs basic arithmetic operations etc. Operator + * / % Ex: Operators Meaning Addition Subtraction Multiplication Division Modulus (remainder of Div.) int a=2, b=5; a +b = 7; a%b=2; a/b=0
iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR 18

Usage a+b ab a*b a/b a%b

Unary Operators: This operator negates the value of variable. The negate (~) convert the +Ve value to Ve value and vice versa. There are five data type as follows 1. 2. 3. Unary Incremental (++) Decrement (--) Unary Minus (-)

Incremental (++): This operator is increases the value of variable by 1. Ex: int i=2; ++i = 3; I++ = 4; i=i+14 Writing ++ before the variable is called Pre Increment. Writing ++ after the variable is called Post Increment. In Pre Increment. Increment is done first, and then all other operations are done later. In Post Increment. All other operations are done first; and then increment is done at the end. Ex: int x=1; int x=1; System.out.println (x); System.out.println (x); System.out.println (++x); System.out.println (x++); System.out.println (x); System.out.println (x); O/P: 1, 2, 1, 1 1, 1, 2, 1 Decremented (--): This operator is decreases the value of variable by 1. Ex: int i=3; --i = 2; I-- = 1; i=i-10 Writing -- before the variable is called Pre Decrement. Writing ++ after the variable is called Post Decrement. In Pre Decrement. Decrement is done first, and then all other operations are done later. In Post Decrement. All other operations are done first; and then Decrement is done at the end. Ex: int x=3; int x=3; System.out.println (x); System.out.println (x); System.out.println (--x); O/P: System.out.println (x); 3, 2, 2 System.out.println (x--); System.out.println (x); 3, 3, 2
19

iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR

Unary Minus (-): This operator is changes the sign value of variable. Ex: int x=2; System.out.println (x); System.out.println (-x); System.out.println (-(-x)); O/P: 3, -3, 3

Assignment Operators: This operators store a value into a variable. Ex: int x=2; Int y = x; Int z =x + y - 6; Expanded Notation Sal=sal+500 num=num-12.5 X=x/2 p=p*k i=i%10 Expression Meaning Addition Assignment Subtraction Assignment Division Assignment Multiplication Assignment Module Assignment

Compound Notation Sal+ =500 num- = 12.5 x/ = 2 p* = k i% = 10

Relational Operators: These operators are supports to compare two quantities; they are used in construction of simple conditions. Operators > >= < <= == != Ex: if (x! = y) If (a >= (b + c)) If (num == 1)
iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR 20

Meaning Greater than Greater than or equals to Less than Less than or equals to Equals to Not Equals to

Logical Operators: These operators are used to construction to compound conditions. A compound condition is a combination of more than one simple condition Operators && || ! Ex: if ((a == 1) && (b! =1)) If ((x > y) || (y >= z) || (z < x)) Meaning Logical AND Logical OR Logical NOT

Boolean Operators: These operators acts upon Boolean variables and they return Boolean value, or Boolean type result Operators & | ! Ex: boolean a = true; a | a true b | b false a | b true ! a false Meaning boolean AND boolean OR boolean NOT boolean b = false; a & a true b & b false a & b false ! b true

Bitwise Operators: These operators act upon the individual bits (0 & 1) of data. These operators are used for testing, complementing or shifting bits to the right or left. A list of seven Bitwise operators as follows 1. Bitwise Complements (~) 2. Bitwise AND (&) 3. Bitwise OR (|) 4. 5. 6. 7. Bitwise XOR (^) Bitwise Left shift (<<) Bitwise Right shift (>>) Bitwise Zero filled Right shift (>>>)
iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR 21

Bitwise Complement (~): This Bitwise complementary operator (~) is a unary operator.it returns the value by complementing the each bit of operands.

1s complements Ex: int x=10; ~ x= -11; Bitwise AND (&): This operator performs ANDing operation on individual bits of numbers. Truth Table: It gives the relations between input bits to output bits. Ex: int x=10; int y=11; X&Y=? X: 0000 1010 Y: 0000 1011 X&Y : 0000 1010 result is 10 Bitwise OR (|): This operator performs ORing operation on individual bits of numbers. Truth Table: It gives the relations between input bits to output bits. Ex: int x=10; int y=11; X|Y=? X: 0000 1010 Y: 0000 1011 X|Y : 0000 1011 result is 11 Bitwise XOR (^): This operator performs ORing operation on individual bits of numbers. Truth Table: It gives the relations between input bits to output bits.
iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR 22

Ex:

int x=10; int y=11; X^Y=? X: 0000 1010 Y: 0000 1011 X^Y : 0000 0001 result is 1

Bitwise Left shift (<<): This Bitwise Left shift operator (<<) is a binary operator; it shifts the bits of a number towards left a specified no.of times. X=10; X<<2=?

Bitwise Right shift (>>): This Bitwise Right shift operator (<<) is a binary operator; it shifts the bits of a number towards right a specified no.of times. X=10; X>>2=?

Bitwise Zero Fill Right shift (<<): This Bitwise Right shift operator (<<) is a binary operator; it shifts the bits of a number towards right a specified no.of times. X=10; X>>>2=?

Conditional Operators: The conditional operator consist of two symbols (?) and (:). It acts upon three variables so it is called ternary Operators. Syntax: Val = exp1? exp2: exp3;

Ex.prg: 3 To find the biggest of three nos using ternary operators.

Output:

Membership or (.)Dot Operators: This operator represents the membership. This (.) Dot operator can use as follows To refer to class and interfaces of a packages. Package.Class Ex: java.io.BufferedReader; To refer to variable of a class. Class_name.variable_name; Ex: System.out or or object.variable_name; obj.sname;
24

iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR

To refer to method of a class. Class_name.method_name; Ex: Math.sqrt(); or or object.method_name; obj.getSal();

Sqrt() is a static method of the Math class. Instanceof Operators: This operator is useful to know whether an object belongs to a class or an object. Syntax: Boolean val = object_name instanceof class_name;

Ex: Boolean x = emp instanceof Employee; emp will returns the true or false value to x to conform. New Operators: This operator is useful to create an object to a class or an object. Syntax: class_name obj_name = new class_name();

Ex: Employee emp = new employee(); Object are create at Heap Memory by JVM dynamically at run time.

Control Statements
The Control statements are changes the flow of the execution of programing statements. Using control statements it is possible to create computers and difficult programs with complex or critical logics.

Control statements are divided into 3 parts, they are 1. Branching Statements 2. Looping (Iterative) statements 3. Jump statements Branching Statements: Branching conditional statements can be divided into two parts they are Un Conditional Conditional

Un Conditional: goto: The keywords goto are reserved but not used. In the early days of Java, it is a UnConditional Statement; Java does not allow the goto control statement because a mass of tangled jumps and conditional branches that makes a program virtually impossible to understand. Conditional: if else: This conditional statements executes a task (one or more statements) depending upon whether a conditional is true or not. Syntax: if (Condition) Statements; [else Statements ]

iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR

26

Ex.prg: 4 If else //check if a number is positive or not Class IfElse { Public static void main(String arg[]) { Int num = 5; if (num == 0) System.out.println (It is Zero.); else if (num > 0) System.out.println (It is positive.); else if (num < 0) System.out.println (It is nagative.); } } Output: 4 It is positive. switch: This conditional statements is useful to execute a particular task from among several tasks depending upon the value of a variable. Syntax: switch (variable) { Case 1: Statements 1; . . Case n: Statements n; [default: default statements] } Ex.prg: 5 switch //Selecting the colours Class SwitchDemo { Public static void main(String arg[]) { Char colour = g; switch(g) { case r: System.out.println ( Red);break; case g: System.out.println ( Ggreen);break; case b: System.out.println (Blue);break;
iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR 27

//declaration & initialization of statement

case w: System.out.println (White);break; default: System.out.println (No Colour);break; } } } Output: 5 Green.

If none of the statements are selected in the switch statement then default case will be executed by default. Switch Statement is most suitable to Menu Driven programs.

Looping (Iterative) statements: A loop (iterative) can execute several times but a statement can execute in one time there are four types of looping statements. while do.while for for each

while loop: (entry Control Statements) This loop executes a group of statements repeatedly as long as a condition is true. Syntax: while (condition) { //body; } Ex.prg: 6 while // To generate even nos upto 10 Class WhileDemo { Public static void main(String arg[]) { Int x = 2; while (x <= 10) { System.out.print (x+,); x+=2; } } }
iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR 28

//declaration & initialization

Output: 6 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, do while loop: (exit Control Statements) This do while loop is verifies a condition at the end of the statement hence the statement will be executed at least ones through the condition is false initially. Syntax: do { //body; } while (condition); Ex.prg: 7 do while // To generate nos upto 10 Class DoWhileDemo { Public static void main(String arg[]) { Int x = 0; do { System.out.print (x+,) x++; } while (x <= 10); } } Output: 7 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, for loop: The for loop operates as follows. When the loop first starts, the initialization portion of the loop is executed. Generally, this is an expression that sets the value of the loop control variable, which acts as a counter that controls the loop. Initialization: It is important to understand that the initialization expression is only executed once. Next, condition is evaluated. condition: This must be a Boolean expression. It usually tests the loop control variable against a target value. If this expression is true, then body will executed. If it is false, the loop terminates.
iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR 29

//declaration & initialization

Next, the iteration portion of the loop is executed. Iteration: ( Increment / Decrement) This is usually an expression that increments or decrements the loop control variable. The loop then iterates, first evaluating the conditional expression, then executing the body of the loop, and then executing the iteration expression with each pass. This process repeats until the controlling expression is false. For loop is used to execute for a fixed no.of times. Syntax: for (initialization; condition; iteration) { // body; } Ex.prg: 8 for // To generate nos upto 10 class ForDemo { public static void main(String arg[]) { for (int x = 0;x <=10;i++) System.out.print (x+,) } } Output: 8 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, //declaration & initialization

We can write for loop by eliminating initialization; condition; iteration expressions or any two expressions or all of the three expressions. A loop that is executed for ever is called infinite looping statement. for ( ; ; ) { //body } } for ( ; done ; ) { //body

Infinite loops are draw back in a program To terminate or stop the continuous execution of infinite looping program it is needed to use a shortcut key on keyboard.i.e. press ctrl + c on keyboard. Nested Loops Java allows loops to be nested. That is, one loop may be inside another. For example, here is a syntax that nests for loops:
iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR 30

Syntax:

for (initialization; condition; iteration) { for (initialization; condition; iteration) { // body; } }

foreach loop: This loop repeatedly executes group of statements foreach element of a collection A collection represents a group of elements or objects. Ex: Any Array []; & java.util classes are the examples of Collections String arg[] foreach statements is executed as many time as elements are exist in collections. Using foreach statement each element of an array arr[] will executes. foreach (var: Collection_Name) { // body; } Ex.prg: 9 foreach //diplay the elements of a collection class ForEach { public static void main(String arg[]) { int arr[] = {55, 66, 77, 88, 99 }; for(int x: arr) System.out.print (Element :+x); } } Output: 9 55, 66, 77, 88, 99, Jump statements: A jump statement allows your program to execute in a non-leaner fashion. Java supports three jump statements: break, continue, and return. These statements transfer control to another part of your program.
iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR 31

Syntax:

//array

//read element by element from arr[]

Java supports three jump statements: -

break, continue, and Return.

Break: In Java, the break statement has three uses. First, as you have seen, it terminates a statement sequence in a switch statement. Second, it can be used to exit a loop. Third, it can be used as a civilized form of goto. The last two uses are explained here. Using break to exit a loop Ex.prg: 10 break // Using break to exit a loop. class BreakLoop { public static void main(String args[]) { for(int i=0; i<100; i++) { if(i == 10) break; } System.out.println("Loop complete."); } } Output: 10 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,Loop complete. Using break as a Form of Goto: The general form of the labeled break statement is shown here: break label; //goto end of block Here, label is the name of a label that identifies a block of code. When this form of break executes, control is transferred out of the named block of code. The labeled block of code must enclose the break statement, but it does not need to be the immediately enclosing block. This means that you can use a labeled break statement to exit from a set of nested blocks. But you cannot use break to transfer control to a block of code that does not enclose the break statement.

// terminate loop if i is 10

System.out.print(i+ ",");

Ex.prg: 11 breakGoto // Using break as a civilized form of goto. class BreakGoto { public static void main(String args[]) { boolean t = true; first: { second: { third: { System.out.println("Before the break."); if(t) break second; // break out of second block System.out.println("This won't execute"); } System.out.println("This won't execute"); } System.out.println("This is after second block."); } } } Output: 11 Before the break. This is after second block. Continue: It is useful to force an early iteration of a loop. That is, you might want to continue running the loop, but stop processing the remainder of the code in its body for this particular iteration. Here is an example program that uses continue to cause two numbers to be printed on each line: Ex.prg: 12 continue // Demonstrate continue. class Continue { public static void main(String args[]) { for (int i=0; i<10; i++) { System.out.print(i + " "); if (i%2 == 0) continue; System.out.println(""); } } }
iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR 33

Output: 12 01 23 45 67 89 As with the break statement, continue may specify a label to describe which enclosing loop to continue. Here is an example program that uses continue to print a triangular multiplication table for 0 through 9. Ex.prg: 13 Continue label // Using continue with a label. class ContinueLabel { public static void main(String args[]) { outer: for (int i=0; i<10; i++) { for(int j=0; j<10; j++) { if(j > i) { System.out.println(); continue outer; } System.out.print(" " + (i * j)); } } System.out.println(); } } Output: 13 0 01 024 0369 0 4 8 12 16 0 5 10 15 20 25 0 6 12 18 24 30 36 0 7 14 21 28 35 42 49 0 8 16 24 32 40 48 56 64 0 9 18 27 36 45 54 63 72 81
iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR 34

Return: The last control statement is return. The return statement is used to explicitly return from a method. That is, This return statement immediately terminates the method in which it is executed and come back to the calling method. This return statement can be return some resulting value to the calling method.

The following example illustrates this point: Ex.prg: 14 return // Demonstrate return. class Return { public static void main(String args[]) { boolean t = true; System.out.println("Before the return."); if(t) return; // return to caller System.out.println("This won't execute."); } } Output: 14 Before the return.

Return statement in main method will terminate the application. What is difference between System.exit(0) & System.exit(1)? API (Application Programming Interface) documentation is a file that contains discretion of all the features of softwares, a product, or a Technology. API Document is created by using the java doc compiler. System.exit(0) : Represents normal termination. System.exit(1) : Represents termination due to an error.

IO Streams basics
A Stream represents the act of flow of data from one place to another place. Java programs perform I/O through streams. A stream is an abstraction that either produces or consumes information. A stream is linked to a physical device by the Java I/O system. Ex: Play a video or audio file as it downloads from the Internet.

There are two types of streams 1. 2. InputStreams: They are reading or receive the data. OutputStreams: They are writing or send the data. All streams are represented as classes in java.io packages. The Predefined Streams: All Java programs automatically import the java.lang package. This package defines a class called System, which encapsulates several aspects of the run-time environment. For example, using some of its methods, you can obtain the current time and the settings of various properties associated with the system. System also contains three predefined stream variables, in, out, and errs. These fields are declared as public and static within System. This means that they can be used by any other part of your program and without reference to a specific System object. System.out refers to the standard output stream. By default, this is the console. System.in refers to standard input, which is the keyboard by default. System.err refers to the standard error stream, which also is the console by default.

However, these streams may be redirected to any compatible I/O device. System.in is an object of type InputStream; System.out and System.err are objects of type PrintStream.These are byte streams, even though they typically are used to read and write characters from and to the console. Here we can wrap these within character-based streams.

Reading Console Input: Attach InputeStreamReader to the keyboard.

iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR 36

i.e. The object of InputStreamReader to the keyboard object. Syntax: InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader (System.in);

Attach InputeStreamReader to the BufferedReader. i.e. The object of InputStreamReader to the BufferedReader object.

Syntax:

BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader (isr);

Read data at object br using read() or readLine () methods -

read () : It reads a single line characters. readLine () : It reads a string or a group of characters.

The preferred method of reading console input for Java 2 is to use a character-oriented stream, which makes your program easier to internationalize and maintain.

Java does not have a generalized console input method that parallels the standard C function scanf ( ) or C++ input operators. Reading Characters: To read a character from a BufferedReader, use read( ). The version of read( ) that we will be using is int read( ) throws IOException Each time that read( ) is called, it reads a character from the input stream and returns it as an integer value. It returns 1 when the end of the stream is encountered. As you can see, it can throw an IOException. The following program demonstrates read( ) by reading characters from the console until the user types a q: Ex.prg: 15 read a character // Use a BufferedReader to read characters from the console. import java.io.*; class BRRead { public static void main(String args[])throws IOException { char c; BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in)); System.out.println("Enter characters, 'q' to quit."); // read characters do { c = (char) br.read(); //type chasting System.out.println("U entered: "+c); }while(c != 'q'); } }
iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR 37

Output: 15 Enter characters, 'q' to quit. renuq U entered: r U entered: e U entered: n U entered: u U entered: q. This output may look a little different from what you expected, because System.in is line buffered, by default. This means that no input is actually passed to the program until you press ENTER. As you can guess, this does not make read( ) particularly valuable for interactive, console input. Reading String: To read a string from the keyboard, use the version of readLine( ) that is a member of the BufferedReader class. Its general form is shown here: String readLine( ) throws IOException As you can see, it returns a String object. The following program demonstrates BufferedReader and the readLine( ) method; the program reads and displays lines of text until you enter the word stop: Ex.prg: 16 read a String // Read a string from console using a BufferedReader. import java.io.*; class BRReadLines { public static void main(String args[])throws IOException { // create a BufferedReader using System.in BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in)); String str; System.out.println("Enter lines of text."); System.out.println("Enter 'stop' to quit."); do { str = br.readLine(); System.out.println(str); } while(!str.equals("stop")); } } Output: 16 Enter lines of text. Enter 'stop' to quit. abcd abcd stop
iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR 38

The next example creates a tiny text editor. It creates an array of String objects and then reads in lines of text, storing each line in the array. It will read up to 100 lines or until you enter stop. It uses a BufferedReader to read from the console. Reading Integer value: String str = br.readLine(); int n = Integer.parseInt(str); Reading floating point number: float f = Float.parseFloat(br.read()); or float n = Float.parseFloat (br.readLine()); or int n = Integer.parseInt (br.readLine());

Float data type can represents up to 7 decimal digits it will display accurately after decimal point.

Reading double number: double d = Double.parseDouble(br.readLine()); Double data type can represents up to 15 decimal digits it will display accurately after decimal point Writing Console Output: Console output is most easily accomplished with print( ) and println( ), These methods are defined by the class PrintStream (which is the type of the object referenced by System.out). Even though System.out is a byte stream, using it for simple program output is still acceptable. However; a character-based alternative is described in the next section. Because PrintStream is an output stream derived from OutputStream, it also implements the low-level method write( ). Thus, write( ) can be used to write to the console. The simplest form of write( ) defined by PrintStream is shown here: void write(int byteval) This method writes to the stream the byte specified by byteval. Although byteval is declared as an integer, only the low-order eight bits are written. Here is a short example that uses write( ) to output the character A followed by a newline to the screen: Ex.prg: 17 Console Output // Demonstrate System.out.write(). class WriteDemo { public static void main(String args[]) { int b; b = 'A'; System.out.write(b);
iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR 39

System.out.write('\n'); } } Output: 17 A You will not often use write( ) to perform console output (although doing so might be useful in some situations), because print( ) and println( ) are substantially easier to use. BufferedWriter: A BufferedWriter is a Writer that adds a flush () method that can be used to ensure that data buffers are physically written to the actual output stream. Using a BufferedWriter can increase performance by reducing the number of times data is actually physically written to the output stream. A BufferedWriter has these two constructors: BufferedWriter(Writer outputStream) BufferedWriter(Writer outputStream, int bufSize) The first form creates a buffered stream using a buffer with a default size. In the second, the size of the buffer is passed in bufSize. BufferedOutputStream: A BufferedOutputStream is similar to any OutputStream with the exception of an added flush () method that is used to ensure that data buffers are physically written to the actual output device. Since the point of a BufferedOutputStream is to improve performance by reducing the number of times the system actually writes data, you may need to call flush () to cause any data that is in the buffer to get written. Unlike buffered input, buffering output does not provide additional functionality. Buffers for output in Java are there to increase performance. Here are the two available constructors: BufferedOutputStream(OutputStream outputStream) BufferedOutputStream(OutputStream outputStream, int bufSize) The first form creates a buffered stream using a buffer of 512 bytes. In the second form, the size of the buffer is passed in bufSize. Type Conversion or Casting: Converting one type of data type into another type i.e. assigns a value of one type to a variable of another type generally it is named as Type Casting. If the two types are compatible, then Java will perform the conversion automatically.

iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR

For example: it is always possible to assign an int value to a long variable. However, not all types are compatible, and thus, not all type conversions are implicitly allowed. For instance, there is no conversion defined from double to byte. Fortunately, it is still possible to obtain a conversion between incompatible types. To do so, you must use a cast operator, which performs an explicit conversion between incompatible types. Automatic Conversions: When one type of data is assigned to another type of variable, an automatic type conversion will take place if the following two conditions are met: The two types are compatible. The destination type is larger than the source type. When these two conditions are met, a widening conversion takes place. For example, the int type is always large enough to hold all valid byte values, so no explicit cast statement is required. For widening conversions, the numeric types, including integer and floating-point types, are compatible with each other. However, the numeric types are not compatible with char or boolean. Also, char and boolean are not compatible with each other. Casting Incompatible Types: This conversion will not be performed automatically, For example, we want to assign an int value to a byte variable? because a byte is smaller than an int. This kind of conversion is sometimes called a narrowing conversion, since you are explicitly making the value narrower so that it will fit into the target type. To create a conversion between two incompatible types, you must use a cast. A cast is simply an explicit type conversion. It has this general form: Syntax: (target-type) value;

Here, target-type specifies the desired type to convert the specified value to. For example: the following fragment casts an int to a byte. If the integers value is larger than the range of a byte, it will be reduced modulo (the remainder of an integer division by the) bytes range. int a; byte b; // ... b = (byte) a; A different type of conversion will occur when a floating-point value is assigned to an integer type: truncation. As you know, integers do not have fractional components. Thus, when a floating-point value is assigned to an integer type, the fractional component is lost. For example: if the value 1.23 is assigned to an integer, the resulting value will simply be 1. The 0.23 will have been truncated. Of course, if the size of the whole number component is too
iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR 41

large to fit into the target integer type, then that value will be reduced modulo the target types range. The following program demonstrates some type conversions that require casts: Ex.prg: 18 Conversion // Demonstrate casts. class Conversion { public static void main(String args[]) { byte b; int i = 257; double d = 323.142; System.out.println("\nConversion of int to byte."); b = (byte) i; System.out.println("i and b " + i + " " + b); System.out.println("\nConversion of double to int."); i = (int) d; System.out.println("d and i " + d + " " + i); System.out.println("\nConversion of double to byte."); b = (byte) d; System.out.println("d and b " + d + " " + b); } } Output: 18 Conversion of int to byte. i and b 257 1 Conversion of double to int. d and i 323.142 323 Conversion of double to byte. d and b 323.142 67

Arrays
An Array represents a group of elements of same type. Arrays of any type can be created and may have one or more dimensions. A specific element in an array is accessed by its index. Arrays offer a convenient means of grouping related information.

Advantage: The main advantage of an array is to handle group of elements with the same name in a sequential memory space. There are two types of Arrays 1. 2. Single Dimension (1D) Multi Dimension (2D, 3D) All Arrays can also be treated as a collection. Single Dimension: A single dimension (1D) array represents one several row or column. The general form of a onedimensional array declaration is Syntax: type var-name[ ][ ];

Here, type declares the base type for the array determines what type of data the array will hold. The base type determines the data type of each element that comprises the array. For example: the following declares an array named marks obtained by one student with the type array of int: int marks[]; //declaration

Fortunately no arrays exist like this, and the size for this array is set to null, which represents an array with no value. To allocate memory there are two ways in java. We can declare a 1D array and initialize it with element int marks[] = {50, 51, 52, 53, 54}; //initialization

A 1D Array will have only one index that represents elements position number in the array. float X[] = {1.1f, 2.2f, 3.3f, 4.4f, 5.5f}; char ch[] = {a, b, c, d, e}; //initialization //initialization
43

iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR

We can allote memory for a 1D using new operator and letter storing the elements. int marks[] = new int[5] marks[] = 50; marks[] = 51; marks[] = 52; etc. or size of an array.

string str[] = new string[20]; double d[] = new double[100]

Array name.length returns the size of the array, Here .length is a property, it will calculate size of an array. Ex.prg: 19 Single Dimension //Total marks and percentage of a student import java.io.*; class Arr { public static void main(String arr[])throws IOException { BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in)); System.out.print("How many SUbjects: "); int n=Integer.parseInt(br.readLine()); int marks[] = new int[n]; for(int i=0;i<n;i++) { System.out.print("Enter Marks:"); marks[i]=Integer.parseInt(br.readLine()); } int tot=0; for(int i=0;i<n;i++) { System.out.println("Marks "+i +": "+marks[i]); tot+=marks[i]; } System.out.println("Total Marks: "+tot); float per=(float)(tot/n);//Type casting System.out.println("Percentage Marks: "+per); } } Output: 19 How many Subjects: 4 Enter Marks:50 Enter Marks: 51 Enter Marks: 52 Enter Marks: 53 Marks 0: 50
iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR 44

Marks 1: 51 Marks 2: 52 Marks 3: 53 Total Marks: 206 Percentage Marks: 51.0 Two or Multi Dimension: A two or Multi dimension (2D) array represents one row or one column. To declare a multidimensional array variable, specify each additional index using another set of square brackets. The following declares a two-dimensional array variable called 2D. Syntax: type var-name[ ][ ];

Here, type declares the base type for the array determines what type of data the array will hold. The base type determines the data type of each element that comprises the array. For example: the following declares an array named marks obtained by a group of student with the type array of int: int marks[][]; //declaration

Fortunately no arrays exist like this, and the size for this array is set to null, which represents an array with no value. To allocate memory there are two ways in java. We can declare a 2D array and initialize it with element int marks[][] = {{50, 51, 52, 53, 54}, {60, 61, 62, 63, 64}, {70, 71, 72, 73, 74}}; //initialization

A 2D Array will have two indexes that represents elements position in row and column position numbers in the array. i.e. TwoD array is a combination of several oneD arrays float X[] = {{1.1f, 1.2f, 1.3f, 1.4f, 1.5f}, {2.1f, 2.2f, 2.3f, 2.4f, 2.5f}, {3.1f, 3.2f, 3.3f, 3.4f, 3.5f}}; We can allot memory for a 2D using new operator and letter storing the elements. int marks[ ][ ] = new int[ 4][5] byte b[ ][ ] = new byte[10][20]; This allocates a 4 by 5 array and assigns it to marks. Internally this matrix is implemented as an array of arrays of int. conceptually; this array will look like the one shown in below figure.

size of an array.

The following program numbers each element in the array from left to right, top to bottom, and then displays these values:

We can use array symbol before the array name also Ex: String [][] = new String[ 4][5 ] Ex.prg: 20 Two Dimensions //Two Dimensional Array import java.io.*; class Arr2 { public static void main(String arr[])throws IOException { float x[][] = {{1.1f, 1.2f, 1.3f, 1.4f, 1.5f}, {2.1f, 2.2f, 2.3f, 2.4f, 2.5f}, {3.1f, 3.2f, 3.3f, 3.4f, 3.5f}}; for(int i=0;i<3;i++) { for(int j=0;j<4;j++) { System.out.print(x[i][j]+"\t"); } System.out.println(); } } } Output: 20 1.1 2.1 3.1 1.2 2.2 3.2 1.3 2.3 3.3 1.4 2.4 3.4

What is Command Line Arguments? Sometimes you will want to pass information into a program when you run it. This is accomplished by passing command-line arguments to main( ). A command-line argument is the information that directly follows the programs name on the command line when it is executed. To access the command-line arguments inside a Java program is quite easy. They are stored as strings in the String array passed to main( ).

Arrays
In Java a string is a group or sequence of characters, but, unlike C, C++ languages that implement strings as character type arrays, whereas In Java implements strings as objects of type String.

Implementing strings as built-in objects allows Java to provide a full complement of features that make string handling convenient. For example, Java has methods to compare two strings, search for a substring, concatenate two strings, and change the case of letters within a string. Also, String objects can be constructed a number of ways, making it easy to obtain a string when needed. Creating a String: There are three ways to creating the strings 1. We can declare string type variable and initialize it with a group of characters. Ex:String str = Hello; 2. We can create a string class object and pass a group of characters into the objects. Ex:String s2 = new String (Hay); 3. We can convert a characters type into class objects by passing the array to the objects. Ex:char ch[] = {a, b, c, d} String str1 = new String (ch); str2 = new String (ch,1,3)// bcd will be O/P String Manipulating Methods: This manipulating methods (functions) are available in java.long.String.*; Some Important string methods of Core Java: String concatenates (String str) This method use for concatenate the strings when calling the string with str.

In Some case + will also work to do the concatenations. int length() This method returns the length of the string. i.e. returns the no.of character in given string. Ex: s1.length
iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR 48

String s1=Hydra, s2=Bad; String x=s1.concate(s2); x.length; Char CharAt(int i)

// s1+s2

This method returns the characters at the specified locations. Stating from 0th locations. int compareTo(String str) int compareToIngnoreCase(String str) This method returns A negative value if the calling string comes before str in dictionary orders, A positive value if the string comes after str or Zero if the strings str equal. Ex: s1=Boy,s2=Box; int n =s1.compareTo(s2); if s1 > s2, n = +ve if s1 < s2, n = +ve if s1 == s2, n = 0 CompareTo() is a method which is compare the case sensitive.

boolean equals(String str) boolean equalsIgnorecase(String str) This method returns true if the calling string equals str. boolean startsWith(String prefix) This method returns true if the invoking string starts with prefix boolean endsWith(String suffix) This method returns true if the invoking string starts with suffix

Above two methods are case sensitive when comparison. int indexsOf(String str) This method returns the first occurrence of the str in the string. Ex: String s1=this is a box; int n=str.indexOf(is);

int LastIndexOf(String str) This method returns the last occurrence of the str in the string.
iNetSolv Solutions |Complete Notes on Core Java By RNR 49

Both the above methods returns negative values, if str not found in the calling string counting starts from zero. String replace(char oldChar,char newChar) This method returns a new string that is obtained by replacing all characters old characters in the string with new characters. String substring(int beginIndex) This method returns a new string consists of all characters from beginIndx until end of the string. String substring(int beginIndex,int endIndex) This method returns a new string consists of all characters from beginIndx until endIndex(exclusives) String toLowerCase() Converts all characters into lower case latters. String toUpperCase() Converts all characters into UPPER CASE latters. String trim() Eliminates all loading and trailing spaces. Ex.prg: 21 Command Line Arguments //Understanding String Concept import java.io.*; class Str { public static void main(String arg[])throws IOException { String s1 = This is Java; //Creating New String String s2 = new String(I Like it); Char ch[] = {i. N, e, t, S, o, l, v}; String s3 = new String(ch); System.out.println( S1:+ s1); System.out.println( S2:+ s2); System.out.println( S3:+ s3); //To Know length of the String System.out.println( length of S1:+ s1.length); //Check if s1 start with this or not.

//Display the String

boolean X=s1.startsWith(This); if(X == true) System.out.println (S1starts with This); Else System.out.println (S1starts with This); //Retrieve a Sub string from S2 S3 String sub1 = s2.substring(0,6); String sub2 = s3.substring(0); System.out.println(sub1+sub2); //Converting the case of string S1 System.out.println(Upper Case:S1:+s1.toUpperCase()); System.out.println(Lower Case:S2+ s2.toLowerCase()); } } Output: 21
