INPUT IN JAVA
IPO cycle
The IPO cycle, also known as the Input-Processing-Output cycle, is a fundamental concept in computer
programming that describes the sequence of steps that a program follows to process data.
Input (I)
The first stage of the IPO cycle is Input, where the program receives data from the user, a file, or another
source. This data can be in the form of numbers, text, images, or other types of information.
Processing (P)
The second stage is Processing, where the program performs operations on the input data. This can include
calculations, transformations, decisions, and other types of data manipulation.
Output (O)
The final stage is Output, where the program produces output based on the processed data. This output can
be displayed on the screen, printed, stored in a file, or transmitted over a network.
Static Binding
Advantages:-
● More flexible
● Can we changed at runtime
Disadvantages:-
● Slower execution
● Runtime checks
Input by using a InputStreamReader class
Advantages
● Efficient: InputStreamReader and BufferedReader improve input efficiency.
● Flexible: InputStreamReader can be used with various byte streams.
Disadvantages
● Complexity: InputStreamReader and BufferedReader require more code
● Error Handling: InputStreamReader and BufferedReader require error
handling.
Process of Input data by using
InputStreamReader class
Compilation
1. *Save the program*: Save the InputStreamReader program in a file with a `.java`
extension, for example, `InputStreamReaderExample.java`.
2. *Compile the program*: Compile the program using the `javac` command, followed
by the name of the file:
javac InputStreamReaderExample.java
3. *Verify compilation*: After compilation, a new file with the same name but with a
`.class` extension will be created, for example, `InputStreamReaderExample.class`.
Execution
1. *Run the program*: Run the program using the `java` command,
followed by the name of the class file (without the `.class` extension):
java InputStreamReaderExample
3. *Verify output*: The program will process the input and display the
output
Example program:-
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(System.in);
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(isr);
System.out.print("Enter your name: ");
String name = br.readLine();
System.out.println("Hello, " + name + "!");
br.close();
isr.close();
} }
Input by using a Scanner class
The Scanner class in Java is a utility class that allows you to parse primitive types and
strings using regular expressions. It provides methods to read input from various
sources, such as the console, files, and network connections.
Advantages
● Easy to Use:- The Scanner class provides simple and intuitive methods to read
input.
● Flexible:-The Scanner class can read input from various sources, including the
console, files, and network connections.
Disadvantages
● Performance:- The Scanner class can be slower than other input methods, such as
BufferedReader.
● Limited Control:- The Scanner class provides limited control over the input
process, making it less suitable for complex input scenarios.
Process of Input data by using Scanner
class
Create a Scanner object to read the input from the desired source, such as System.in for console
input.
Prompt the user to enter the desired input using System.out.print() or System.out.println().
Use the appropriate Scanner method to read the input, such as next() for strings, nextInt() for
integers, nextDouble() for doubles, and nextBoolean() for booleans.
Step 5: Store the Input in a Variable
Close the Scanner object to prevent resource leaks if it's not needed anymore
Compilation and Execution of Scanner
class
Compilation
1. Save the program in a file with a `.java` extension, for example, `ScannerExample.java`.
2. Open a terminal or command prompt and navigate to the directory where the file is
saved.
3. Compile the program using the `javac` command, followed by the name of the file:
bash
javac ScannerExample.java
1. If the compilation is successful, a new file with the same name but with a `.class`
extension will be created.
Execution
1. Run the program using the `java` command, followed by the name of the class file
(without the `.class` extension):
bash
java ScannerExample
3. The program will process the input and display the output.
Example program:-
class ScannerExample {
System.out.println("Hello, " + name + "! You are " + age + " years old.");
scanner.close();
}}
Testing and Debugging
Testing
1. Purpose: Verify that the software meets the requirements and works as expected.
4. Outcome: Pass or fail result, indicating whether the software meets the requirements.
5. Goal: Ensure the software is free from defects and functions as intended.
1. Syntax Errors
- Occur when the code violates the programming language's syntax rules.
2. Runtime Errors
3. Logic Errors
- Occur when the code does not produce the expected output due to a flaw in the
program's logic.
- Occur when the code is syntactically correct but does not behave as intended.
5. Compilation Errors
- Occur when the code cannot be compiled due to syntax errors or other issues.
6. Linker Errors
- Occur when the linker cannot resolve references to external libraries or functions.
8. Type Errors
- Occur when the code attempts to perform an operation on a value of the wrong data type.
- Examples: trying to add a string to an integer, trying to access an array with a non-integer index.
- Occur when the code attempts to access or manipulate a null (non-existent) object reference.
- Examples: trying to call a method on a null object, trying to access a field of a null object.
- Occur when the code attempts to access an array or collection with an index that is out of range.
- Examples: trying to access an array element with a negative index, trying to access an array
element with an index greater than or equal to the array's length
