Introduction to Java - Day 1

A detailed guide with deep concepts


& examples
What is Java?
• - Java is a high-level, object-oriented
programming language.
• - Developed by Sun Microsystems in 1995,
now owned by Oracle.
• - It follows the WORA (Write Once, Run
Anywhere) principle.
• - Java applications are compiled into bytecode
and run on the JVM.
Features of Java
• - Platform Independent (Runs on JVM)
• - Object-Oriented
• - Secure and Robust
• - Multi-threaded
• - High Performance (JIT Compiler)
• - Rich API & Community Support
Java Architecture (JDK, JRE, JVM)
• - **JDK (Java Development Kit)**: Includes
tools to develop & compile Java applications.
• - **JRE (Java Runtime Environment)**:
Provides the runtime environment for Java
applications.
• - **JVM (Java Virtual Machine)**: Converts
bytecode into machine code for execution.
Writing & Running a Java Program
• 1. Write a simple Java program (`HelloWorld.java`).
• 2. Compile using `javac HelloWorld.java`.
• 3. Run using `java HelloWorld`.

• Example:

• ```java
• public class HelloWorld {
• public static void main(String[] args) {
• System.out.println("Hello, World!");
• }
• }
• ```
Java Syntax and Structure
• - Java programs are structured in **classes**
and contain a `main()` method.
• - Every statement ends with a **semicolon
(;)**.
• - Curly braces `{}` define blocks of code.
• - Java is case-sensitive.
Variables and Data Types
• - **Primitive Data Types**: int, float, char, boolean, double,
etc.
• - **Reference Data Types**: Strings, Arrays, Objects.
• - Example:

• ```java
• int age = 20;
• double price = 99.99;
• boolean isJavaFun = true;
• ```
Installing Java and Setting Up
Environment
• - Download JDK from Oracle or OpenJDK.
• - Install an IDE (Eclipse, IntelliJ, VS Code).
• - Set up the `JAVA_HOME` environment
variable.
• - Verify installation using `java -version` and
`javac -version`.
Recap & Next Steps
• - Java is an object-oriented, platform-
independent language.
• - Java programs are compiled into bytecode
and run on JVM.
• - Learned Java syntax, variables, and program
structure.
• - Next: Data Types, Operators, and Control
Statements.
