    Study Notes

    Java Primitive Data Types

    • int: A primitive data type representing whole numbers.
    • char: A primitive data type representing a single character, size is 16 bits.
    • float: A primitive data type representing a single-precision floating-point number.
    • byte: A primitive data type representing an 8-bit signed integer.

    Java Data Types

    • decimal: Not a built-in data type in Java.
    • boolean: A built-in data type representing true/false values, size is 1 bit.
    • long: A primitive data type representing a 64-bit signed integer.

    Other Java Concepts

    • System.out.print: Used to write output to the console in Java.
    • Scanner: A class in Java used for reading input from the user.
    • nextLine(): A method within the Scanner class used to read a string from the user.
    • short: The range is from -32,768 to +32,767 and the size is 16 bits.
    • int: A data type used to represent whole numbers in Java; the size is 32 bits.
    • double: A primitive data type in Java that stores double-precision floating-point numbers.

    Control Statements

    • while loop: Repeats a block of code as long as a condition is true.
    • do-while loop: Executes a block of code at least once, then repeats as long as a condition is true.
    • for loop: Used for iteration. An error occurs if the update statement is omitted.
    • break statement: Used to exit a loop prematurely when a specific condition is met
    • switch statement: Used to select one of many code blocks. Only used with int and char data types in Java.

    Algorithms

    • Algorithm: A step-by-step procedure used to solve a problem.
    • Definiteness: An algorithm's steps are well-defined and unambiguous.
    • Finiteness: An algorithm will eventually stop after a finite number of steps.
    • Effectiveness: The steps in an algorithm can be executed using basic operations or actions.
    • Memory complexity: A critical aspect in algorithm analysis; it refers to the amount of memory an algorithm uses.

    Additional Concepts

    • System.in: Represents the standard input stream in Java.
    • printf(): A method in Java for formatted printing. %n in a print format string represents a new line character.

    Sieve of Eratosthenes

    • Simple Sieve: An algorithm to find prime numbers.
    • Optimization: Mark only odd numbers as prime to reduce memory usage.
    • Multiples: Mark multiples of prime numbers less than the square root of a given number as composite to reduce computational efforts.
    • Data structure: Can be implemented using an array

    Euler's totient function

    • Euler's phi function: Counts the number of integers less than n that are relatively prime to n for a given positive integer.
    • Relationship to (n): $$\phi(nm) = \phi(n)\phi(m)$$

    Strobogrammatic Numbers

    • Strobogrammatic number: A number that stays the same when rotated 180 degrees.
    • Properties: They are always palindromic.

    Sorting Algorithms (Quick Sort)

    • Quick Sort: An efficient sorting algorithm.
    • Pivot Selection: A crucial aspect in preventing the worst-case scenario is selecting the pivot randomly.
    • Partitioning: The process of dividing an array into two sub-arrays.
    • In-place sorting: A type of sorting algorithm that does not require extra memory proportional to the input size.
