    Study Notes

    Introduction to Core Java

    • Core Java consists of fundamental concepts and principles of Java programming language.
    • The syllabus includes five main units, each weighted at 20%.

    Java Overview

    • Java is a high-level, robust, and object-oriented programming language created in 1995.
    • Owned by Oracle, it is used on over 3 billion devices for applications such as mobile (Android), AI, big data, and cloud-based solutions.
    • Java is known for the WORA (Write Once, Run Anywhere) capability, ensuring platform independence.

    Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)

    • OOP focuses on creating software using objects that represent real-world entities.
    • Core principles include:
      • Classes: Blueprints for objects.
      • Objects: Instances of classes.
      • Abstraction: Hiding implementation details.
      • Encapsulation: Bundling data with methods manipulating it.
      • Inheritance: Deriving new classes from existing ones.
      • Polymorphism: Ability to perform tasks in different ways.

    Features of Java

    • Object Orientation: All entities in Java are objects.
    • Platform Independent: Compiled to bytecode that runs on any OS with JVM.
    • Simple and Easy to Learn: Designed to be user-friendly for beginners.
    • Robust and Secure: Extensive error checking and strong security features.
    • Multithreaded: Supports concurrent execution of two or more threads.
    • Dynamic: Adaptable to evolving environments and can handle extensive run-time information.

    Java Environment

    • Java Development Kit (JDK): Complete toolkit including compiler, JRE, and debugging tools.
    • Java Runtime Environment (JRE): Provides runtime environment to execute Java applications.
    • Java Virtual Machine (JVM): Abstract machine that executes bytecode and provides platform independence.
    • Garbage Collector: Automatic memory management by reclaiming memory from unreferenced objects.

    Java Architectures

    • Compilation Process: Java source code is compiled into bytecode by the JDK.
    • Execution: The JVM interprets bytecode to execute it on the host system.

    Java Programming Structure

    • Basic program structure includes class declaration, main method, and print statements.
    • Syntax example: 
      class Simple {
    public static void main(String args[]) {
        System.out.println("Hello Java");
    }
}

    Real-Time Java Applications

    • Java is widely used for application development across diverse sectors including:
      • Mobile applications (Android)
      • Financial services server applications
      • Big Data technologies
      • Scientific applications
      • Embedded systems

    Variables in Java

    • A variable is a symbolic name for a memory location that stores data.
    • Types of Variables:
      • Local Variables: Declared within a method.
      • Instance Variables: Declared within a class but outside methods.
      • Static Variables: Class-level variables shared across instances.

    Data Types in Java

    • Two main categories:
      • Primitive: Basic data types such as int, char, boolean.
      • Non-Primitive: Derived types including arrays, classes, and interfaces.

    Identifiers and Naming Conventions

    • Identifiers are names for variables, methods, classes, etc.
    • Rules for identifiers:
      • Begin with a letter, underscore, or dollar sign.
      • Avoid using keywords and spaces.
      • Naming Conventions:
        • Class/Interface names should start with a capital letter.
        • Variable/Method names should start with a lowercase letter.

    Conclusion

    • Mastery of core Java concepts is essential for developing applications, understanding frameworks, and engaging with modern programming environments.### Naming Convention
    • First letter of internal words should be capitalized in identifiers.
    • Constant identifiers are written in uppercase letters, using underscores to separate words (e.g., final double RATE = 2.6).
    • Package identifiers must be in lowercase (e.g., Package mypackage.subpackage.x).

    Keywords

    • Keywords are predefined identifiers reserved for specific purposes, in lowercase (e.g., case, catch, if, float, int, package, while, do, long).

    Literals

    • Literals are values assigned to variables or constants, categorized as:
      • Numeric: Includes binary, octal (0-7, 017), and hexadecimal.
      • Boolean: Represented by 0s and 1s.
      • Character: Enclosed in single quotes.
      • String: A sequence of zero or more characters.
      • Null: Assigned to object reference variables.

    Operators

    • Operators take one or more operands:
      • Unary operator (e.g., +).
      • Binary operator (e.g., /).
      • Ternary operator (e.g., ?:).

    Assignment/Arithmetic Operator

    • Assignment operators set a variable's value, with right-to-left associativity (e.g., a=b=0).
    • Common operators include +=, -=, and |= (e.g., a+=b).

    Relational Operator

    • Java relational operators return boolean values (true or false):
      • Equal to: ==
      • Not equal to: !=
      • Less than: <
      • Greater than: >
      • Less than or equal to: <=
      • Greater than or equal to: >=

    Boolean Logical Operators

    • Conditional OR: ||
    • Conditional AND: &&
    • Logical OR: |
    • Logical AND: &
    • Logical XOR: ^
    • Unary logical NOT: !

    Expression

    • An expression consists of variables, operators, and methods, evaluating to a single value (e.g., int ans = 1 + 10;).

    Precedence Rule & Associativity

    • Determines the order of operations in expressions.

    Primitive Type Conversion & Casting

    • Type Casting involves assigning a value of one type to another.
    • Widening or automatic type conversion occurs when compatible types are involved, with the target type larger than the source.
    • Narrowing or explicit type conversion is necessary when assigning a larger type to a smaller type.

    Data Input

    • Two methods for obtaining input in Java:
      • JOptionPane class
      • Scanner class

    Scanner Class

    • java.util.Scanner class parses primitive types and strings using regular expressions.
    • Breaks input into tokens using whitespace as delimiters.
    • Not safe for multithreaded use without external synchronization.
    • Common input methods:
      • nextInt(): Reads an integer.
      • nextFloat(): Reads a float.
      • nextDouble(): Reads a double.
      • nextLong(): Reads a long.
      • nextShort(): Reads a short.
      • next(): Reads a single word.
      • nextLine(): Reads an entire line, including spaces.
      • nextBoolean(): Reads a boolean.

    Conditional Statements

    • Java supports various conditional structures:
      • if
      • if-else
      • Nested if
      • if-else-if
      • switch-case

    Loops

    • Java has several loop constructs:
      • while
      • do-while
      • for
      • for-each

    For-each Loop

    • Starts with for and iterates over an array or collection.
    • Uses a variable of the same type as the array, enhancing readability and reducing errors.
    • Syntax: for (type var : array) { statements; }
    • Equivalent to traditional for-loop, but cannot process multiple decision-making statements easily.
