LOGOkeywords Keywords are words that :  Are reserved for use by Java.  May not be used to name Java applications or objects ,such as classes ,methods or variables.  Are case-sensitive and in lowercase

LOGOIdentifiers An identifier is a name that:  Identifies a variable, class or method  Identifiers must start with either an uppercase or lowercase letter, an underscore (_), or a dollar sign ($).  Identifiers cannot contain punctuation, spaces, dashes, or any of the Java technology keywords.  Most importantly identifiers are case sensitive.  Identifiers cannot begin with a digit (0-9)  White space is not permitted.  Examples of legal identifiers: age, $salary, _value, __1_value  Examples of illegal identifiers : 123abc, -salary , max value

LOGONaming Convention in Java  packages names are in lowercase . E.g :java.lang,java.util and com.ourglobalcompany.myproject.model  Classes: Names should be in CamelCase is where each new word begins with a capital letter E.g. :CustomerAccount , Employee  Methods & Variables : is the same as CamelCase except the first letter of the name is in lowercase E.g.: firstName ,orderNumber void calculateTax() , String getSalary()  Constants: Names should be in uppercase. E.g.: DEFAULT_WIDTH , MAX_HEIGHT

LOGOStatements and Blocks Statements are roughly equivalent to sentences in natural languages. A statement forms a complete unit of execution. The following types of expressions can be made into a statement by terminating the expression with a semicolon (;).  Assignment expressions  Any use of ++ or --  Method invocations  Object creation expressions

LOGOStatements and Blocks Multiple Java statements may be grouped using braces to form a block statement. Block statements are logical units of statements ,usually associated with a specific statement container such as a method or a loop .Java allows to place a block statement within another block

LOGOVariables Variables are named memory locations that are used for storing data items of a value of a particular data type or a reference to an object.  Variable lives confined to the scope of their definition, which cab be :  At the local evlevel inside a method or block of code , they are called local variables  At the object instance lel when defined as a Non-static attribute , also called instance variables  At the class level when defined as a static attribute , also called class variables Variables in method declarations—these are called parameters.

LOGOVariables Variable Naming Conventions The variable naming conversions are the same as those of identifiers Java developers must not use the dollar symbol in a variable. Also, variable names must not start with an underscore Initializing Variables You can assign values to variables in your program during variable declaration. datatype variableName = initvalue; datatype variable1 = initvalue , variable2= initvalue2 , .... , variableN= initvalueN; Uninitialized Variables Attributes (instance or static) are always initialized to a default value local variable must be initialized otherwise the Program does not compile Variable Declaration  To declare a variable, you use the syntax : datatype varableName;  To Declare multiple variables using A single statement : datatype variable1,variable2 ,variable3 ,..... variableN;

LOGO 9 Data Types in JAVA  Value Types (Built in data types – Primitive data types Like: int , float , ..)  Reference Types (any other type Like: objects , Interface , array, Enum ..) 5 x int x =5; stack heap Memory ref Data

LOGOPrimitive Data Types s There are eight primitive data types supported by Java, and they enable you to define variables for storing data that fall into one of three categories: 1. Numeric values  integer (byte, short, int, and long)  floating-point (float and double) 2. A single Unicode character (char) 3. Logical values (boolean) that can be true or false

LOGOInteger Data Types Data Type Size Range Default Value byte 1 byte (8 bits) -27 to 27-1 (-128 to +127 or 256 possible values) 0 short 2 bytes (16 bits) -215 to 215-1 (-32,768 to 32,767 or 65,535 possible values ) 0 int 4 bytes (32 bits) -231 to 231-1 (-2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647 or 4,294,967,296 possible Values ) 0 long 8 bytes (64 bits) -263 to 263-1 (- 9,223,372,036854,775,808 to 9,223,372,036854,775,807, or 18,446,744,073,709,551,616 possible values) 0L

LOGOFloating-Point Data Types Data Type Size Default Value float 32-bit 0.0f double 64-bit 0.0d  Float is mainly used to save memory in large arrays of floating point numbers.  Float data type is never used for precise values such as currency.  Double data type is generally used as the default data type for decimal values. generally the default choice.  Double data type should never be used for precise values such as currency.

LOGOCharacter Type  Char data type is used to store any character.  Java uses Unicode to represent characters  char data type is a single 16-bit Unicode character.  Minimum value is 'u0000' (or 0).  Maximum value is 'uffff' (or 65,535 inclusive).  Default value : 'u0000'  Example : char letterA ='A'

LOGOBoolean Type  boolean data type represents one bit of information.  There are only two possible values : true and false.  This data type is used for simple flags that track true/false conditions.  Used to hold the result of an expression that evaluates to either true or false.  Default value : false  The size of boolean is not defined in the Java specification, but requires at least one bit.  Example : boolean one = true

LOGOLiterals A literal in java is any item that directly represents a particular value . Variables belonging to any primitive types can also be assigned values and treated as literals . Each variable type has a corresponding literal type , such as integer, character, string and boolean Literal

LOGOTypes of Literals There are four types of literals in java, which are based on the types of variables present  Numeric Literal  int  ex: 7  double  ex: 12.87 , 12e22 , 19E-95  float  ex: 12.87f , 123.988F  Boolean Literal  true or false  Character Literal  ‘a’ ,’A’,’#’,’3’  ASCII  String Literal  “hi from Marwa” , “Welcome n in New Horizons”

LOGOEscape Sequences for Character Literals Escape Sequence Description t Insert a tab in the text at this point. b Insert a backspace in the text at this point. n Insert a newline in the text at this point. r Insert a carriage return in the text at this point. f Insert a formfeed in the text at this point. ' Insert a single quote character in the text at this point. " Insert a double quote character in the text at this point. Insert a backslash character in the text at this point. d Octal xd Hexadecimal ud Unicode Character

LOGODeclaring Constants  A Constant is a variable type in java whose value does not change .  Constants are defined using the final keyword followed by the variable declaration. By convention ,constant variable names are in uppercase .If the name is composed of more than one word, the words are separated by an underscore (_).  Constants defined in this way cannot be reassigned, and it is a compile - time error if your program tries to do so. EX: final double PI=3.141592653589793; EX: final int FEET_PER_YARD = 3;

LOGOExpressions An expression is a combination of operators (such as addition '+', subtraction '-', multiplication '*', division '/') and operands (variables or literals), that can be evaluated to yield a single value of a certain type 1 + 2 * 3 // evaluated to int 7 int sum, number; sum + number // evaluated to an int value // Evaluated to a double value double principal, interestRate; principal * (1 + interestRate)

LOGOOperators  Arithmetic Operators  Assignment Operators  Relational Operators  Logical Operators  Increment and Decrement Operators  Bitwise Operators  Operator Precedence

LOGOArithmetic Operators Operator Meaning Syntax + Addition X + y ‫ــ‬ Subtraction X - y * Multiplication X * y / Division X / y % Modulus The reminder from a division operation X % y Arithmetic operators are used in mathematical expressions String Concatenation The + operator may used to concatenate the strings together System.out.println("Account Balance is"+ balance);

LOGOCompound Arithmetic Assignment Operators Operator Expression Meaning += X += y X=X + y ‫=ــ‬ X -= y X=X – y *= X *= y X=X * y /= X /= y X=X / y %= X %= y X=X % y = Simple assignment operator, Assigns values from right side operands to left side operand

LOGORelational Operators Relational Operators are symbols user for determining relational comparisons between operands. all expressions created using relational operators will return a boolean value , depending on whether the comparison is true Operator Meaning Syntax == equal to X == y != not equal to X != y > greater than X > y < less than X < y >= greater than or equal to X >= y <= less than or equal to X <= y

LOGOLogical Operators Operator Meaning & logical AND && conditional AND | logical OR || Conditional OR ^ exclusive OR (XOR) ! logical (NOT) Logical Operators evaluate expressions that carry boolean values . The result returned by logical operators is also a boolean value.

LOGOIncrement and Decrement Operators Operator Meaning ++ Increment operator; increase the value of a numeric variable or array element by 1 -- Decrement operator; reduce the value of a numeric variable or array element by 1 Prefix and Postfix  Prefix : Placing the operator before the operand causes increment or decrement to occur before the value of the operand is used to evaluate an expression For example : int a=5; int x =++a; both x and a will have the value 6  Postfix : Placing the operator after the operand causes increment or decrement to occur after the value of the operand is used in an expression For example : int a=5; int x =a++; x will have the value of 5 and a will have the value 6

LOGOBitwise Operators Operator Description Binary bitwise AND (&) Returns a 1 if both bits are 1 Binary bitwise OR (|) Returns a 1 if either bit is 1 Binary bitwise XOR (^) Returns a 1 if both bits have different values Unary bitwise complement (~) Changes each bit in its operand to the opposite value Binary left shift (<<) Shifts bits on the left to the left by a distance denoted by the right operand .Fills in zeros Binary right shift (>>) Shifts bits on the left to the right by a distance denoted by the right operand .Fills in the highest bit on the left side. Binary arithmetic and logical shift (>>>) Shifts bits on the left to the right by a distance denoted by the right operand .Fills in zeros
