<h1>Lecture for January 23</h1>
|
|
<h2>Java Class</h2>
|
|
<p>In Java, your code must live in a class.</p>
|
|
<pre><code class="language-java">public class NameOfClass {
|
|
public static void main(String[] args) {
|
|
// All program code
|
|
}
|
|
}</code></pre>
|
|
<p>It is important that <code>NameOfClass</code> is named meaningfully for the code. It is convention to use CamelCase when using classes. (Capitalize your class names!)</p>
|
|
<p>All methods have a method signature, it is unique to it. For main it is the words <code>public static void</code> and the argument <code>String[] args</code>.</p>
|
|
<p><code>public</code> means that any other piece of code can reference it.</p>
|
|
<p><code>void</code> means that the method returns nothing</p>
|
|
<p><code>main</code> is the name of the method. It is important to have <code>main</code> since that tells the Java Interpreter where to start in your program.</p>
|
|
<p><code>String[] args</code> is the command line arguments inputted into the program. For this part of the class, we don't need to worry about it.</p>
|
|
<p>If you noticed <code>String</code> is a class, it is not a primitive type. This is denoted in Java by having it capitalized.</p>
|
|
<h2>Arithmetic Expressions</h2>
|
|
<p>There is an order of operations in programming as well. It goes like this:</p>
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>Parenthesis</li>
|
|
<li>Unary Operations</li>
|
|
<li>*, /, %</li>
|
|
<li>+, -</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
<p>And from there you read from left to right.</p>
|
|
<h2>Constant Variables</h2>
|
|
<p>These are variables that can never be changed</p>
|
|
<pre><code class="language-java">final int MINUTES_PER_HOUR = 60</code></pre>
|
|
<p>The keyword <code>final</code> indicates to the Java compiler that it is a constant variable.</p>
|
|
<p>By convention, constants are in all caps with underscores being separated between the words</p>
|
|
<h2>Java Math Library</h2>
|
|
<p>There are some arithmetic expressions that we want to be able to do and we cannot achieve that simply with the standard operations</p>

<h2>Example: Finding Areas</h2>
|
|
<pre><code class="language-java">public class MoreVariables
|
|
public static void main(String[] args) {
|
|
// Decrate a variable
|
|
int x;
|
|
|
|
// Initialize ia variable
|
|
x = 5;
|
|
|
|
// Area of a square
|
|
int squareArea = x * x;
|
|
System.out.println("Area of a square: " + squareArea);
|
|
double newSquare = Math.pow(x, 2);
|
|
System.out.println("Area of square: " + newSquare);
|
|
|
|
// Area of Circle
|
|
final double PI = 3.14159;
|
|
double radius = 3;
|
|
double circleArea = radius * radius * PI;
|
|
System.out.println("Area of circle: " + circleArea);
