Points To Be Remember Before Creating Class in Java: -

Point 1: - When class is public then class name and file name must be
same.

For example: -

Java Source Filename  A.java

Java Byte Code File  A.class

public class A

{ Compile Command: javac A.java

Running Command: java A

Point 2: - When class is not public then class name and file name can be
different.

For example: -

Java Source Filename  A.java

Java Byte Code File  B.class

class B

{ Compile Command: javac A.java

Running Command: java B

Basic Java Program: -

A.java
Create a class named "A":

public class A

public static void main(String args[])

System.out.println(“Welcome to CJC”);

Run: java A

Output: Welcome to CJC.

What are Methods?

A method is a block of code or collection of statements or a set
of code grouped together to perform a certain task or
operation.
It is used to achieve the reusability of code.

Types of Methods: -
There are Four types of methods:

Simple Method: -
Syntax: - AccessModifier ReturnType MethodName()

For example: -

public void m1()

Simple Parameterized Method: -

Syntax: - AccessModifier ReturnType MethodName(parameter)

For example: -

public void m1(int x)

Return Type Method: -

Syntax: - AccessModifier ReturnType MethodName()

There are 2 important things to know—

Object Creation: -
Syntax: -
ClassName referencevariable = new ClassName();
For example: -
A a = new A ();
Where:
A -- ClassName
a -- ReferenceVariable / Object
new -- Keyword

Method Calling: -
Syntax: -
referencevariable.methodName();
For example: -

a.m1();
Where:

a -- ReferenceVariable / Object
m1 -- Method Name (m1—Method1)

Basic Program based on method calling and object creation:

public class A

public void m1()

System.out.println(“M1 method”);

public static void main(String args[])

System.out.println(“Main Method Start”);

A a=new A(); //Object Creation

a.m1(); // Method Calling

System.out.println(“Main Method End”);
