Study Notes
Mobile Application Development Lecture 2
- The lecture is titled "Mobile Application Development, Lec. 2" and presented by Dr. Samah Adel.
Why Use Dart
- Dart is an open-source, general-purpose programming language developed by Google.
- It supports application development on client and server sides, including Android, iOS, IoT, and web applications.
- It's used primarily with the Flutter Framework.
- Dart compiles to native code for fast performance, ideal for mobile apps.
- Dart is relatively easy to learn, similar to Java or JavaScript.
- Dart is the core of Flutter, a framework for building beautiful and functional mobile applications.
- Flutter allows developers to create mobile, web, and desktop applications with a single codebase.
Features of Dart Programming Language
- Dart is easy to understand due to its code reuse features.
- It uses Object-Oriented Programming principles, similar to Java and C++.
- It's open-source, making it popular among developers and organizations.
- It's supported by most modern web browsers using the dart2js compiler, converting Dart to JavaScript.
- It's type-safe, combining static and runtime checks to ensure variable types match.
- It supports both just-in-time (JIT) and ahead-of-time (AOT) compilation.
- Dart2js adds value to this by providing advanced compilation.
- Dart supports asynchronous programming, allowing programs to respond to multiple tasks concurrently.
Hello World Program
- The
main()function in Dart is the program's entry point. - The statement
main() { ... }defines the main function, where the program begins execution. - The
print()function displays output during compilation.print("Hello World! Hello Dart");
Comments
- Dart supports single-line and multiline comments.
- Single-line comments start with
//. - Multiline comments use /* */.
- Documentation comments start with ///.
Variables
-
Static Variables: Declared with a specific data type. For example:
int variableName; -
Dynamic Variables: Declared without a specific data type (using var). Example:
var variableName; - Final/Const: These variables can only be initialized once and their values cannot be changed.
Dynamic Type Variable in Dart
-
dynamic great = "Good Morning";//Dynamic variables are initialized without specifying the data type. - Using
varinstead ofdynamicresults in an error.
Final And Const Keyword in Dart
-
finalvariables can only be initialized once. They are initialized when accessed. -
constvariables are compile-time constants.
Null Safety in Dart
- By default, Dart variables can't be assigned null values before they are explicitly defined as accepting null.
-
int? a;declares a nullable integer variable. - Variables declared as nullable can be assigned null.
Operators
- Various types of operators (arithmetic, relational, type test, bitwise, assignment, logical, and conditional) are available in Dart.
Arithmetic Operators
- Dart supports standard arithmetic operations (+, −, *, /, %, ~/).
Relational Operators
- Dart supports relational operators (>, <, >=, <=, ==, !=).
Type Test Operators
- Dart has
isandis!operators to check the data type of an object.
Bitwise Operators
- Dart supports bitwise operators (&, |, ^, ~, <<, >>).
Assignment Operators
- Dart's assignment operators include the standard assignment operator (=) and others providing shorthand notation.
- The
??=operator assigns a value only if the variable is null.
Logical Operators
- Dart provides logical operators (&&, ||, !).
- These perform logical operations on boolean expressions.
Conditional Operators
- Dart's conditional operators (
condition ? expression1 : expression2andexpersion1 ?? expression2) provide concise ways to execute different code paths based on conditions or avoid null errors
Standard Input Output
- Dart's
stdin.readLineSync()method allows reading input from the console. - The
dart:iolibrary is imported to use console input. - The
stdout.write()method is used to display output to the console.
Data Types in Dart
- Different data types like Numbers, Strings, Booleans, Lists, and Maps are supported.
- Each data type has its own specific characteristics and uses.
