Study Notes
Data Types and Abstract Data Types
- Data type consists of a collection of values and operations that manipulate them.
- An abstract data type (ADT) is defined by its values and operations without exposing implementation details.
- A data item is a member of a specific data type.
Encapsulation
- Encapsulation involves hiding the implementation details of a data structure to protect and manage complexity.
Data Structures in Java
- "Data Structures and Algorithms in JAVA" (4th Edition) published by M. Goodrich & R. Tamassia in 2006.
Two-Dimensional Arrays
- Two-dimensional arrays can be stored in one-dimensional memory using either row-major order or column-major order.
- In Java, a two-dimensional array must be created using the 'new' keyword.
- The first index of a 2D array is typically treated as the column index, while the second index is the row index.
- Default values for elements in two-dimensional arrays in Java are set to 0.
- Two-dimensional arrays can be initialized directly by assigning values during declaration.
Additional Information
- To declare a two-dimensional array in Java, use syntax like
dataType[][] arrayName;. - Two methods for storing 2D arrays in one-dimensional memory are row-major and column-major order.
- Typically, the first index corresponds to columns and the second to rows in a 2D array.
- Default values of 0 apply to all elements in a newly created 2D array in Java.
- A two-dimensional array can be created using value assignment, for example:
int[][] arrayName = {{1, 2}, {3, 4}};.
