Classes and Objects
• Example 1: Example 1.java

BITS Pilani, Dubai Campus


Object Reference
class Student {
String name; int age;
public Student ( String aName, int aAge) {
name = aName; age = aAge;
}
public void setAge( int aAge ) { age = aAge; }
public void printAge() {System.out.println
(age); }
}
public class StudentTester1 {
public static void main (String[] args) {
Student s1 = new Student("abc", 10);
Student s2 = s1;
s2.setAge(20); // set s2’s age
s1.printAge(); // print s1’s age : what is o/p
s2.printAge(); // print s2’s age : what is o/p
}
} • Example 2: StudentTester1.java

Object Reference
• What is memory organization when an object is
declared and instantiated.
Student s1 = new Student (“abc”, 10);
Student
s1 name = “abc”
age = 10

Student s2 = s1;
s2 also is a reference to the same object s1.
Its not a copy.
Student
s1 name = “abc”
age = 10
s2

Object Reference
s2.setAge(20); s1 Student
name = “abc”
s2 age = 20

s1.printAge(); it prints 20.

Solution is to create a new object.


public class StudentTester {
public static void main (String[] args) {
Student s1 = new Student("abc", 10);
Student s2 = new Student(“def”, 15);
s2.setAge(20); // set s2’s age
s1.display(); // print s1’s age : what is o/p
}

Constructor
• A class contains constructors that are invoked to create
objects from the class blueprint.
• Constructor declarations look like method declaration.
• They use the name of the class.
• Do not have return type.
• A constructor is called automatically when a new
instance of an object is created.
• Types of constructors
• Non-argument constructor
• Parameterised constructor
• Non-argument constructor: Example3.java
• Parameterised constructor: Example4.java

Method Overloading
• Method Overloading is a feature that allows a class to
have more than one method having the same name, if
their argument lists are different.
• Three ways of method overloading
• Number of parameters Example5.java
add(int, int)
add(int, int, int)
• Data type of parameters
Example6.java
add(int, int)
add(int, float)
• Sequence of Data type of parameters Example7.java
add(int, float) Invalid:
add(float, int) int add(int, int)
float add(int, int)

Constructor Overloading
• Sometimes there is a need of initializing an object
in different ways. This can be done using
constructor overloading.
• Example8.java
