What is the purpose of short-circuit evaluation in Java?
- To always return true for logical expressions
- To ensure that functions are executed multiple times
- To evaluate all operands regardless of their values
- To optimize performance by stopping evaluation once the result is clear (correct)

Short-Circuit Evaluation
Short-Circuit Evaluation
A process where a computer evaluates a logical expression from left to right, stopping as soon as the expression's value is determined.
Short-Circuit Operators
Short-Circuit Operators
Logical AND (&&) and OR (||) operators that do not necessarily evaluate all their operands.
Logical AND (&&)
Logical AND (&&)
Returns true only if both operands are true; otherwise, it returns false.
Logical OR (||)
Logical OR (||)

Study Notes
Java Strings
- Strings are sequences of characters
- Strings have methods for manipulation
- Strings are objects, not primitive types
- String length is the number of characters
- Character position starts at index 0
- Strings can be created directly or using
new String() - String literals (e.g., "Hello World!") share memory
- Constructed strings (using
new) have separate memory equals()compares string content,==compares references- Strings are immutable (cannot be changed after creation)
String Methods
charAt(index): Returns the character at the specified indexcompareTo(string): Compares strings. Returns 0 if equal, < 0 if less, > 0 if greaterconcat(string): Concatenates stringsequals(string): Returns true if strings have the same charactersequalsIgnoreCase(string): Returns true if strings have the same characters (case-insensitive)indexOf(string): Returns the index of the first occurrence of a substringlastIndexOf(string): Returns the index of the last occurrence of a substringlength(): Returns the length of the stringtoLowerCase(): Returns a lowercase version of the stringtoUpperCase(): Returns an uppercase version of the stringreplace(oldChar, newChar): Replaces all occurrences of a charactersubstring(startIndex): Returns a substring from the start index to the endsubstring(startIndex, endIndex): Returns a substring from startIndex to endIndex (exclusive of endIndex)trim(): Removes leading and trailing whitespace
Control Structures (Repetition)
- Java has
while,for, anddo-whileloops while: Executes a block of code while a condition is truefor: Repeats a block for a specific number of iterationsdo-while: Executes a block at least once, then repeats while a condition is truebreak: Exits the innermost loop or switchcontinue: Skips the rest of the current iteration and starts the next- Nested loops are loops within loops
Control Structures (Selection)
- Java uses
if,if-else, andswitchstatements if: Executes a block of code if a condition is trueif-else: Executes one block if a condition is true, another if it's falseswitch: Executes different blocks depending on the value of an expressionbreak: Exits theswitchstatement
Short Circuit Evaluation
- Logical expressions are evaluated efficiently, stopping when the outcome is known
&&(AND) and||(OR) are short-circuit operators
