    Study Notes

    Anatomy of Java Program

    • A Java program consists of a sequence of statements that define its functionality and behavior.
    • Java statements are instructions executed in a Java program, often involving variable manipulation and control flow.

    Java Variables

    • Variables serve as temporary storage spaces for values such as numbers or strings.
    • Variable declaration defines a variable's type and name and can include initialization, which assigns it an initial value.

    Java Types

    • Java supports two main categories of data types: primitive and reference types.
    • Primitive types include boolean, byte, char, short, int, long, float, and double.

    Formatting Strings

    • The String.format() method allows the creation of formatted strings using placeholders.
    • Placeholders, indicated by % followed by a format specifier (e.g., %s, %d, %f), enable value substitution in the output.
    • Optional arguments can be passed to replace these placeholders in the format string.

    Java Reference Types

    • Reference types store references (memory addresses) to objects rather than the actual data.
    • Creating a new string with new String() is often redundant; using string literals (double quotes) is simpler and more efficient.
    • Strings as reference types come with various methods for manipulation and processing.

    Java Programming Foundations

    • Java, developed in 1995, is a widely-used programming language.
    • Strong foundational knowledge in programming concepts and techniques is essential for developing computing systems effectively.

    Installing Java

    • To install Java, search and select Java SE 21 Archive, then choose the appropriate installer for your device.
    • Environment variables may need setup, and a system reboot is often necessary post-installation.

    Installing Java IDE

    • IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition can be downloaded for Java development.
    • After installing the IDE, create your first project, such as a basic "HelloWorld" application.

    Running Java Applications

    • A Java application undergoes two key processes: compilation and execution.
    • The source code, written in .java files, is translated to bytecode by the Java compiler (javac).
    • This bytecode, stored in .class files, is platform-independent and executed by the Java Virtual Machine (JVM).

    Java Execution Flow

    • During execution, the JVM reads the bytecode and carries out the instructions defined in the Java application.
    • This architecture allows Java applications to run on any device with a compatible JVM, enhancing portability and flexibility.

    Important Course Information

    • A two-week course includes practical assessments with a focus on project-based learning and tests.
    • Learning outcomes focus on programming techniques, problem-solving, understanding multi-tiered applications, and advanced programming concepts such as data structures and RESTful APIs.

    Additional Resources

    • A Java Cheat Sheet can be downloaded to support learning and reference key Java concepts and commands.
