Algorithms Class Notes

1. Introduction to Java

Java is a high-level, object-oriented programming language developed by Sun Microsystems.

Key features:

- Platform independent (via JVM)

- Object-oriented

- Strongly typed

- Garbage collection

Popular for building web apps, mobile apps (Android), and enterprise software.

2. Basic Syntax and Data Types

Every Java application starts with a `main` method:

public static void main(String[] args) {

// code

Common data types:

- int, float, double, boolean, char

- Reference types: arrays, classes, interfaces

3. Object-Oriented Programming in Java

Java is built around OOP principles:

- Class & Object

- Inheritance

- Polymorphism
Algorithms Class Notes

- Encapsulation

- Abstraction

Example:

class Car {

String color;

void drive() {}

4. Exception Handling

Java uses try-catch blocks for error handling.

try {

// code that may throw an exception

} catch (Exception e) {

// handle error

Common exceptions: NullPointerException, ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException, IOException

5. Collections Framework

Java Collections provide data structures like:

- List (ArrayList, LinkedList)

- Set (HashSet, TreeSet)

- Map (HashMap, TreeMap)

Useful for storing and manipulating groups of data.
