    Study Notes

    Enums

    • Enums are special classes representing a group of constants (unchangeable variables).
    • Use the enum keyword instead of class or interface.
    • Separate constants with commas.
    • Constants should be in uppercase.

    Accessing Enum Constants

    • Access enum constants using a "dot" syntax.
    • Example: Level myVar = Level.MEDIUM;

    Enums Inside a Class

    • Enums can be defined within a class.
    • The output of an enum inside a class depends on the code used to access it.

    Enums in Switch Statements

    • Enums are commonly used in switch statements to check for corresponding values.
    • Example: switch (myVar)

    Looping Through an Enum

    • Use the values() method to loop through enum constants.
    • Example: for (Level myVar : Level.values()) { ... }

    Difference Between Enums and Classes

    • Enums can have attributes and methods, like classes.
    • Enum constants are public, static, and final (unchangeable and cannot be overridden).
    • Enums cannot be used to create objects or extend other classes, but can implement interfaces.

    Java User Input (Scanner)

    • The Scanner class is used to get user input.
    • To use, create a Scanner object: Scanner myObj = new Scanner(System.in);
    • Use methods like nextLine(), nextInt(), nextDouble(), nextBoolean() to read different data types.

    Input Types (Scanner)

    • nextBoolean(): Reads a boolean value.
    • nextByte(): Reads a byte value.
    • nextDouble(): Reads a double value.
    • nextFloat(): Reads a float value.
    • nextInt(): Reads an integer value.
    • nextLine(): Reads a string value.
    • nextLong(): Reads a long value.
    • nextShort(): Reads a short value.

    Integer Input from the User

    • The nextInt() method is used to take integer input from the user.

    Java Dates and Times

    • Java uses the java.time package for date and time handling.
    • LocalDate: Represents a date (year, month, day).
    • LocalTime: Represents a time (hour, minute, second, nanoseconds).
    • LocalDateTime: Represents both date and time.
    • DateTimeFormatter: Formats date and time objects.

    Formatting Date and Time

    • Use DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern() to format dates and times in a specific way.

    File Handling

    • Java's java.io package provides classes for file handling (e.g., creating, reading, updating, deleting).
    • The File class represents a file or directory path, allows file and directory interactions.
    • The createNewFile() method attempts to create a new file.
    • The delete() method deletes a file or directory.

    Actions on Files

    • Methods like canRead(), canWrite(), exists(), getName(), getAbsolutePath(), length(), list(), mkdir() are used for various file and folder interactions.
    • The FileWriter class writes content to a file.
    • The FileReader class and the Scanner class read content from a file.
