Outline

• Data types• Variable declaration and use• Decisions and loops• Input and output

4

Primitive Data Types

• A data type: define values and the operators• Each value stored in memory is associated with a particular data type• primitive data types: predefined data types in Java Ex: A: integers: byte, short, int, long. B: float, double. C: boolean (true or false) (on or off) D: char (unicode 16 bits for international languages)

5

Storage in Programming Languages

• Registers• Stack (handles & primitives in Java)• Heap (all class objects in Java)• Static storage • Constant storage• Non-RAM storage (persistent)

Note that Built-in types (primitives) are not object handles handles: call by reference primitives: call by value

• char: Unicode character set• A character set is an ordered list of characters• The Unicode character set uses sixteen bits per character, allowing for 65,536 unique characters• International character set.

9


•boolean: a true or false condition (two states: on or off)• The reserved words true and false are the only valid values for a boolean type

10


•Same operations as C/C++• Size of each data type is machine independent

11

Wrappers for primitive Data Types

• For each primitive data type there is a corresponding wrapper class.

• Wrapper classes are useful in situations where you need an object instead of a primitive type• They also contain some useful methods

12

Variables

• A variable is an identifier that represents a location in memory that holds a particular type of data• Variables must be declared before they can be used• Syntax of a variable declaration: data-type variable-name; For example: int total; // 4-byte int in stack

int total, count, sum; int total = 0, count = 20; float unitPrice = 57.25;

13

Scope of Variables

• Block statements: group of statements delimited by braces

{ // begin of scope 1 int x=1; System.out.println("x="+x); { // begin of scope 2

// int x=3; // can not redine x int y=2; System.out.println("x="+x); System.out.println(“y=”+y); }}

14

Assignment Statements

• An assignment statement takes the following form: variable-name = expression;• The expression is evaluated and the result is stored in the variable, overwriting the value currently stored in the variable• The expression can be a single value or a more complicated calculation

15

Constants

• A constant is similar to a variable except that they keep the same value throughout their existence• They are specified using the reserved word final in the declaration. For example: final double PI = 3.14159; final int STUDENTS_COUNT = 25;• All final are static. final static double PI = 3.14159; Better than literal values because: A. make code more readable by giving meaning to a value B. use less memory, easy to modification (one place)

Input and Output

• Java I/O is complicated. 1. Different kind of IO: Files, console, block of memory, network 2. Different kinds of operations: Sequential, random-access, binary, character, integer, by lines, be words, ...• Java provides a lot of classes to support IO.

Input and Output

• Java I/O is based on input streams and output streams 1. All classes inherit from IS have read methods. 2. All classes inherit from OS have write methods.• There are three predefined standard streams:

• print and println methods write to standard output

Stream

System.inSystem.outSystem.err

Purpose

reading inputwriting outputwriting errors

Default Device

keyboardmonitormonitor

18

Input and Output

• Escape sequences: a special sequence of characters preceded by a backslash (\)

Escape Sequence

\t\n\"\'\\

Meaning

Input From Keyboard

• The Java API allows you to create many kinds of streams to perform various kinds of I/O• To read character strings, we will convert the System.in stream to another kind of stream using:

BufferedReader stdin = new BufferedReader

(new InputStreamReader (System.in));

• This declaration creates a new stream called stdin

22

Echo.java

import java.io.*;class Echo { public static void main (String[] args) throws IOException { BufferedReader stdin = new BufferedReader (new InputStreamReader(System.in)); String message; System.out.println ("Enter a line of text:"); message = stdin.readLine(); System.out.println ("You entered: \"" + message + "\""); } // method main} // class Echo

23

Buffers

• As you type, the characters are stored in an input buffer• When you press enter, the program begins processing the data• Output information is temporarily stored in an output buffer• The output buffer can be explicitly flushed (sent to the screen) using the flush method• See Python.java

24

Numeric Input

• Converting a string into the integer value: value = Integer.parseInt(my_string);

• A value can be read and converted in one line:

num = Integer.parseInt(stdin.readLine());

C: scanf(“%d\n”, num);

25

Addition2.java

import java.io.*;class Addition2 { public static void main (String[] args) throws IOException { BufferedReader stdin = new BufferedReader (new InputStreamReader(System.in)); int num1, num2; System.out.println ("Enter a number: "); num1 = Integer.parseInt (stdin.readLine()); System.out.println ("Enter another number:"); num2 = Integer.parseInt (stdin.readLine()); System.out.println ("The sum is " + (num1+num2)); } // method main} // class Addition2

26

Controlling Program Flow

• Essentially same as C/C++• if statement: if (condition)

statement;• Relational operators:

Operator

==!=<<=><=

Meaning

less thanless than or equal to

greater thangreater than or equal to

• while statement: while (condition)

Note: Avoid infinite loop (logic error)

Note: Avoid infinite loop (logic error)

import java.io.*;class Right_Triangle { // bad bad bad RightTriangle public static void main (String[] args) throws IOException { BufferedReader stdin = new BufferedReader (new InputStreamReader(System.in)); int hypotenuse_sq; // bad hypotenuseSquare System.out.println ("Enter side 1:"); int side1 = Integer.parseInt (stdin.readLine()); System.out.println ("Enter side 2:"); int side2 = Integer.parseInt (stdin.readLine()); System.out.println ("Enter the hypotenuse:"); int side3 = Integer.parseInt (stdin.readLine()); hypotenuse_sq = (side1 * side1) + (side2 * side2); if ((side3*side3) == hypotenuse_sq) System.out.println ("It is a right triangle."); else System.out.println ("It is not a right triangle."); } // method main} // class Right_Triangle
