Study Notes
Common Programming Errors
- Run-time Error: An error that causes a program to take an unintended action.
- Logic Error: A program that is written correctly but does not function as expected.
Java Programming Basics
- Method: Sequences of programming instructions that perform a specific task.
- IDE (Integrated Development Environment): A software package providing tools like editors, compilers, and debuggers.
- Flowcharts: Use parallelograms to represent processing.
- Java Source Code Files: End with the file extension "java".
- Java Compilation: Compiles into a "class" file.
- Java Version Check: Use the command "java -version" to display the version.
- File Naming Conventions: The public class name must match the filename, even in capitalization.
Java Syntax and Data Types
- Variables: Hold data values.
-
Assignment Operator ("="): Sets a variable to a value. Example:
total = 1 + 3
- Identifiers: Names given to variables, methods, and classes.
- Valid Identifiers: Must start with a letter or underscore, and can contain letters, digits, and underscores.
Calling Methods and Parameters
-
Method Calls: Use the method name followed by parentheses. Example:
System.out.println
. - Parameters: Values passed to methods to modify their behavior.
Objects and Classes
- Objects: Encapsulate data and methods.
- Creating Objects: Use the "new" keyword.
- Object References: Variables hold references to objects.
-
Java Packages: Provide classes for common functionality:
-
java.lang
: Provides core classes used in all Java programs. -
java.util
: Contains classes like arrays, maps, and lists.
-
Debugging in Eclipse
- Breakpoints: Pause program execution at specific lines.
- Toggle Breakpoint: Add or remove breakpoints in Eclipse.
-
Debugging Commands:
- Step Into: Execute a line of code within a method.
- Step Over: Execute a line of code, skipping any method calls.
- Step Return: Execute a line of code, returning from a method.
- Terminate: End the debugging session.
Access Modifiers
- Private: Access restricted to the class itself.
- Public: Access allowed from any location.
- Protected: Access for the class, subclasses, and packages.
