Study Notes
Course Information
- Course name: CS341: Visual Programming
- Week: 02
- Topic: Event-Driven Programming
- Instructor: Reda M. Hussien
- Assistant Professor of Information Systems
- Faculty of Computers and Information
- Kafr El-Shiekh University
Event-Driven Programming Concepts
- Event-driven programming is a paradigm where program flow depends on events (e.g., user actions, sensor outputs, or messages).
- Instead of sequential execution, event-driven applications respond to events asynchronously.
- Common in GUIs, real-time systems, and networking applications.
Key Components in Event-Driven Programming
- Event Handlers: Functions or methods called when a specific event occurs. They define actions for the event.
- Used commonly in GUIs for user actions (like button clicks or text input).
- Run asynchronously—not in the normal program flow.
- Specific to an event (or group of related events) for better organization.
- Allow loose coupling between event source and response, making code more modular.
- Delegates: Type-safe function pointers.
- Define a method's signature to match an event.
- Allow methods to be treated as data, passed as arguments.
- Critical in event-driven programming, decoupling event sources.
- Events: Actions or occurrences that trigger responses (event handlers).
- Central to event-driven systems.
- Notify the application when significant changes or events occur.
- Events use delegates to define specific method signatures to follow.
- Often triggered by external input (e.g., user actions, hardware).
- Events employ a subscription model—multiple event listeners can subscribe to one event to get notified when it takes place.
Handling User Input and Responding to Events
- Handling user input is a core function in event-driven programming, especially in graphical user interfaces.
- User interacts with the interface; responses happen via event handlers.
- Inputs, like mouse clicks or keyboard presses, are captured as events.
- Once the event handler captures the input, the system needs to react appropriately by updating the UI, processing input (sending data), or triggering actions (e.g., opening a file).
Benefits of Event-Driven Programming in Handling User Input
- Improved Interactivity: Immediate user response.
- Decoupling: Separates the logic initiating an action from the response action logic.
- Scalability: Handles multiple handlers for the same event well. Extending an app's functionality is relatively simple without changing the core logic.
Conclusion
- Event-driven programming handles interactive systems.
- It leverages event handlers, delegates, and events to respond dynamically to user input, system changes, or external stimulus (e.g., network messages).
- A simple example could be a user click—the event triggers a response immediately.
Prime Numbers
- Prime numbers have exactly two divisors: 1 and the number itself.
- Examples of prime numbers: 2, 3.
- 4 is not a prime number (it has three divisors: 1, 2, and 4).
- There is no largest prime number.
- The question of whether every even number is the sum of two primes is an open mathematical question (Goldbach's Conjecture).
