Types, Variables, Operators

l  Goal
•  Learn enough Java to do something useful
•  Examples:
•  Perform some arithmetic
•  Solve quadratic equation

1
About a Computer

Memory l  CPU Instructions


l  c = a + b

Central
Processing •  Read location a
Unit (CPU)
•  Read location b
•  Add
•  Write to location c
Input/Output
(IO Devices)

Compiling Java

Source Code javac Byte Code java


(.java) (.class)

2
First Java Program

Program Structure

3
System Output

System.out.println(some String) outputs


to the console/terminal

Example:
System.out.println(“output”);

Second Program

4
Quiz 1

l  Write a Java Program to output the following


sentence “Mama Land”

ma La nd”);
…… in tln ( “ M a
ut.pr
System.o
……

Types

l  Kinds of values that can be stored and


manipulated
• boolean: Truth value (true or false).
• int: Integer (0, 1, -47).
• double: Real number (3.14, 1.0, -2.1).
• String: Text (“hello”, “example”).

5
Variables

l  Namedlocation that stores a value of


one particular type.

• Form: TYPE NAME;


l  Example: String test;

Quiz 2: List the (i) Types and (ii)


Variables used in this program
Class Quiz2
int coursenumber;
double test1, test2, total; Types:
string remarks; int
Public static void main (String args[]) double
{ string
total = test1 + test2;
System.out.println(total); Variables:
if total > 40{ coursenumber
remaks = pass; test1
}else{ test2
remaks = Failue; total
} remarks
System.out.println(remarks);
}

6
Operators

Symbols that perform simple computations

1. Assignment: =
2. Addition: +
3. Subtraction: -
4. Multiplication: *
5. Division: /

Order of Operations (BODMAS)


BODMAS is an acronym and it stands for
•  Bracket,
•  Of,
•  Division,
•  Multiplication,
•  Addition and
•  Subtraction.
It explains the order of operations to solve
an expression.

7
Order of Operations

Follows standard math rules:


1.  Parentheses
2.  Multiplication and division
3.  Addition and subtraction

Assignment

Use = to give variables a value.

Example:
String remarks;
remarks = “Passed Java Test1”;
----
System.out.println(remarks) ;

8
Assignment

Can be combined with a variable


declaration.

Example:
double radius = 7;
boolean isJune = true;

Quiz 3
Write down the Outputs of the following Java Program

class Hello3 {
public static void main(String[] arguments) {
String course = "CS 175";
System.out.println(course);
course = "Programming in Java"; CS 175
Programming in Java
System.out.println(course);
}
}

9
Quiz 4: What is the value of (i)
total (ii) remarks
Class Quiz4
double test1 = 28.1;
double test2 = 23.9; double total;
string remarks;
Public static void main (String args[]) Total: 52.0
{
total = test1 + test2;
System.out.println(total); Remarks: Pass
if total > 40{
remaks = pass;
}else{
remaks = Fail;
}
System.out.println(remarks);
}

Quiz 5

Quiz 6

String Concatenation (+)


Use + to concatenate string

For example:
String text = "hello" + " world";
text = text + " number " + 5;

……
ntln(text);
System.out.pri
Output: mber 5
hello world nu
……

11
String Concatenation (+)
Given:
String a = “a”;
String b = “letter b”; Output:
a = “letter a”; letter a and letter b
String c = a + “ and “ + b;

l  What is the output of this Program?


……
System.out.println(c);
