Study Notes

Variable Declaration

  • Correct way to declare an int variable: int x = 10;
  • Capitalization matters in Java; use lower case for data types.

Java Identifiers

  • Identifiers can be of any length; no special starting characters allowed.
  • They can include underscores.

Code Output and Errors

  • Java is case-sensitive, leading to potential errors; e.g., using X and x inconsistently results in an error.
  • For print statements, correct syntax: System.out.println("Hello, Java!");

Comparison Operators

  • Use == to compare two values: if (x == y);
  • Avoid using assignment operator = for comparison.

Modulo Operator

  • To check if n is divisible by 3: if (n % 3 == 0);

Data Types and Initialization

  • To correctly declare and initialize a double, use double amount = 20;
  • Ensure correct casing in variable names to avoid errors.

Logical Expressions

  • The expression (5 > 3 || 7 < 6) evaluates to true since at least one condition is true.

Type Casting and Numerical Operations

  • Use parentheses to control operation precedence; casting is needed to avoid integer division loss.
  • Errors can arise from improper casing of variables like using B instead of b.

Conditional Statements

  • Correct syntax for if-else: if (x > 3) { ... } else { ... }
  • Ensure to use parentheses in conditions and avoid misplaced colons or semicolons.

Switch Statements

  • Switch statements can evaluate non-numeric expressions as well.
  • While break statements are commonly used to prevent fall-through, they are not strictly required.

Input Handling

  • Read integer input from the keyboard correctly with input.nextInt();

Logical Operators

  • The expression !(3 > 5 && 2 == 2) results in true because the inner condition (3 > 5) is false.
