Introduction to Java
Applications

Java Applications Are
A Series of Classes
• A Java Application must have the method
main.
• A Java Application begins executing at
main.
• Let’s look at details of an Application:
1
3
public class Welcome1
{
public static void main( String args[] )
{
System.out.println( “Welcome to Java!” );
} // end of main()
} // end of class Welcome1
• This is a basic Application.
• Notice the comments. These are required in this course.
Java is free form, but you’ll be happy if you get in the habit
of documenting like this.
• Also, whenever you type an opening curly bracket, type
the closing one right away.
• Your curly brackets must always--in
this
class--line
up
as

shown.
public class Welcome1
{
public static void main( String args[] )
{
System.out.println( “Welcome to Java!” );
} // end of main()
} // end of class Welcome1
• The line above in blue is the class definition for
Welcome1.
• Every class name must be Capitalized.
• Notice, every scrap of code is within this class.
• Since it is named Welcome1, this Application is saved in
a file called Welcome1.java, spelled exactly the same.
5
1
• The compiler will make a file
called Welcome1.class.
public class Welcome1
{
public static void main( String args[] )
{
System.out.println( “Welcome to Java!” );
} // end of main()
} // end of class Welcome1
• The word Welcome1 is an identifier.
• An identifier is a user-defined word, which consists of:
letters
digits
_ (underscore)
$ (a dollar sign)
• An identifier cannot begin 1with a digit.
6
public class Welcome1
{
public static void main( String args[] )
{
System.out.println( “Welcome to Java!” );
} // end of main()
} // end of class Welcome1
• Notice that we put the word public before the word
class.
• This means the class can be called by anything.
• The alternatives to public are discussed in Chapter 8.
1

public class Welcome1
{
public static void main( String args[] )
{
System.out.println( “Welcome to Java!” );
} // end of main()
} // end of class Welcome1
• The method main is also declared public.
• This should just be copied until Chapter 6, when we
know methods better.

8
public class Welcome1
{
public static void main( String args[] )
{
System.out.println( “Welcome to Java!” );
} // end of main()
} // end of class Welcome1
• void means nothing is returned to the operating system
when the program finishes.
• The ( String args[] ) works with “arguments”
that were passed when the program was executed.
• Although you cannot omit it ( String args[] ),
we don’t discuss this topic just yet, so please copy it.

public class Welcome1
{
public static void main( String args[] )
{
System.out.println( “Welcome to Java!” );
} // end of main()
} // end of class Welcome1
• The System.out.println puts the message in
quotes on the command console.
• If we used System.out.print, then the cursor would
This

the

/ line

it prints the text.
Standard output
• Notice the opening and closing blue curly brackets. The
object.
unit of code enclosed in them
is called a “block.”
• It is also called the “body” of the method.
1
10
public class Welcome1
{
public static void main( String args[] )
{
System.out.println( “Welcome to Java!” );
} // end of main()
} // end of class Welcome1
• You will find that you very rarely use this
Standard output object.
• Instead, you will use the GUI objects.
• Notice in red the semicolon. ; All executable
statements in Java ends in a semicolon.
1
11
public class Welcome1
{
public static void main( String args[] )
{
System.out.print( “Welcome ” );
System.out.println( “to Java!” );
} // end of main()
} // end of class Welcome1
• This will still produce the same text as the
previous version.
1
12
public class Welcome1
{
public static void main( String args[] )
{
System.out.print( “Welcome\nto\n\tJava! ” );
} // end of main()
} // end of class Welcome1
• Notice the “ \n ”. The slash is an escape
character. It tells the System object that whatever
follows the slash is special:
\n
new line
\t tab
\r carriage return
\\ backslash
\” quote
Welcome
to
Java!

First GUI: JOptionPane
import javax.swing.JOptionPane
public class Welcome4
{
public static void main( String args[] )
{
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog( null, “Hi Java!” );
System.exit( 0 );
} // end of main()
} // end of class Welcome1
• This adds an import statement, which tells the
compiler you want to use somebody else’s class.
• The “ javax.swing ” is like a DOS path.
1
14
First GUI: JOptionPane
import javax.swing.JOptionPane
• You must know these classes, and how to use them.
• This path helps the compiler find the class you wish to
use.
• The javax.swing portion of this name is called the
“package.”
• Classes in the same package have a connection we will
explore later.
• Suffice it to say that they are very chummy.
1
15
First GUI: JOptionPane
import javax.swing.JOptionPane
public class Welcome4
{
public static void main( String args[] )
{
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog( null, “Hi Java!” );
System.exit( 0 )
} // end of main()
} // end of class Welcome1
• The Statement JOptionPane.showMessageDialog means:
“I want object JOptionPane to perform its method
showMessageDialog(). Also, I’m passing the data:
“null” and “Hi Java!” In Java, we call that data
“arguments.”
16
1
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class Welcome4
{
public static void main( String args[] )
{
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog( null,
“Hi Java!” );
System.exit( 0 );
} // end of main()
} // end of class Welcome4
• System.exit( 0 ); This statement uses the
method “exit” of class System to end the application.
GUI Applications always require this statement to
terminate correctly.
• Class System is imported automatically, in package
java.lang

Build An Application
Addition
• When you are building an Application, there is a set
template for design that you automatically follow.
• Get in the habit of doing exactly as will be done on the
next few slides.
1
18
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
1.) You tell the compiler to import any of the extra
classes you will be using in your Application.
1
19
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class Addition
{
} // end of class Addition
2.) Define your class name, and right away place the
opening and closing brackets--with the comment.
1
20
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class Addition
{
public static void main( String args[] )
{
System.exit( 0 );
} // end of main()
} // end of class Addition
3.) Add the main method, and the System.exit( 0 )
that you know it will require--include the comment.
1
21
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
f
public class Addition
{
public static void main( String args[] )
{
String firstNumber,
secondNumber;
System.exit( 0 );
} // end of main()
} // end of class Addition
These two are “String” references. That means they
have the potential to point to objects of type String.
However,

this
point,

within the method.

22
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class Addition
{
public static void main( String args[] )
{
String firstNumber,
secondNumber;
int
number1,
number2,
sum;
System.exit( 0 );
} // end of main()
} // end of class Addition
Notice,
‘int’ does not
start with a
capital
letter.
5.) Now we have added three integer variables. They are
not objects. They hold three integers--without any
methods or classes. number1, number2 and
23

number3 are called primitive
variables.

is received.
firstNumber = JOptionPane.showInputDialog( “First Num” );
secondNumber = JOptionPane.showInputDialog( “Second Num” );
• Look at the Java Documentation for the
JOptionPane object. You will first see the hierarchy
of this object within the Java object hierarchy:
1
d
24
• This is the hierarchy for
the JOptionPane.
• We will cover “inheritance”
starting in Chapter 8, but you
need to begin learning these API class libraries.
• The Class JOptionPane has several methods.
A class’s methods are its capabilities.
• For now, you should know that method
showInputDialog()
receives a String argument, and
returns a String result.
1
25
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class Addition
{
public static void main( String args[] )
{
String firstNumber,
secondNumber;
int
number1,
number2,
sum;
firstNumber = JOptionPane.showInputDialog( “First Num” );
secondNumber = JOptionPane.showInputDialog( “Second Num” );
• These InputDialog boxes are created by this code.
• But, since they are Strings,
we can’t add them.
1
26
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class Addition
{
public static void main( String args[] )
{
String firstNumber,
secondNumber;
int
number1,
number2,
sum;
firstNumber = JOptionPane.showInputDialog( “First Num” );
secondNumber = JOptionPane.showInputDialog( “Second Num” );
• So, how do we get String “numbers” converted into
actual integers that we can do addition on?
• We need some Object that has a method capable of
taking a String argument and returning an integer.
1
27
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class Addition
{
public static void main( String args[] )
{
String firstNumber,
secondNumber;
int
number1,
number2,
sum;
firstNumber = JOptionPane.showInputDialog( “First Num” );
secondNumber = JOptionPane.showInputDialog( “Second Num” );
number1 = Integer.parseInt( firstNumber );
number2 = Integer.parseInt( secondNumber );
sum = number1 + number2;
• Integer is a class. Its method parseInt()
takes a String argument and returns an int.

by underscores.
“Results”, JOPtionPane.PLAIN_MESSAGE );
System.exit( 0 );
} // end of main()
} // end of class Addition

29
A Caution About String Concatenation
• On the previous slide, we concatenated a String with
an int: “The Sum is ” + sum.
• Remember the sequence: first, sum was converted
from an int to a String, and then that String was
concatenated with the other String “The Sum is: ”
• So, what would the following code produce?
int number1 = 2;
int number2 = 4;
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog( null,
“The Sum is: ” + number1 + number2,
“Screwy Result”, JOptionPane.WARNING_MESSAGE );

Primitive Data Types
• A variable called number1 actually refers to a place in
memory where the value of the variable is stored.
• Every variable in Java has a:
name,
type,
size, and a
value.
1
31
Primitive Data Types
name
Variable names must conform to the rules for identifiers:
• they must begin with a letter,
• after that they can contain digits, dollar signs and
underscores.
• Java uses Unicode for its characters, so any
“letter” that is valid for a word in any world
language is therefore valid for a name in Java.
1
32
Primitive Data Types
type
• The “type” appears before the identifier name.
• The type can be one of the “primitive data types” or it
can be any previously defined class.
int num1;
num1 = 2;
int num1=2;
• You declare a variable and
initialize it on the same line.
• This is a declaration. At this point,
the name num1 refers to a location
{a pointer} in the computer’s RAM
where this variable is stored.
• Because an int is declared, we
know that four bytes are set aside.
1
• Still,
nothing is stored in it yet.33
Primitive Data Types
size
• When we assign a type [ int, String] to a
variable, we are not only declaring a memory
location.
• We also decide how big of a number or character
is able to be stored in that variable.
1
34
Primitive Data Types
value
• Finally, the value is what we want the variable
to store.
1
35
Primitive Data Types
• Java is a Strongly-typed language. That means,
every variable must be declared as a type.
In Java, there are 8 primitive types:
• 6 of those refer to numbers
--4 for integers types,
--2 for floating-point types,
• 1 is the character type char, used for characters
in Unicode encoding, and
• 1 is a boolean type for true or false values.
1
36
Primitive Data Types
int
• In contrast to C/C++, an int will always--no
matter which operating system--take 4 bytes
of storage space.
• Because those 4 bytes are set in stone, you can be
sure that every JVM that runs your program
will be able to store the same size numbers.
• int is the most commonly used number size.
Range:
-2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647 (over two billion)
1
37
Primitive Data Types
short
• In Java, a short is defined as 2 bytes, no matter
which operating system is used.
• You would only use this for special situations,
such as when speed is really crucial.
{ For VB programmers, a short is what
you’ve come to think of as an int . }
Range:
-32,768 to 32,767
1
38
Primitive Data Types
long
• A long is defined as 8 bytes, no matter
which operating system is used.
Range:
-9,223,372,036,854,775,808L to
9,223,372,036,854,775,807L
• Please notice the upper-case L suffix is appended to any
long. This is required.
• Hexadecimal numbers have a prefix: 0x
0x1CFE.
1
39
Primitive Data Types
byte
• A byte is defined as 1 byte, no matter
which operating system is used.
Range:
-128 to 127
• Again, like a short, a byte is only used under
rare circumstances.
1
40
Primitive Data Types
float
• A float is defined as 4 bytes, no matter
which operating system is used.
Range:
approximately 3.40282347E+38F
( 6-7 significant decimal digits )
• Because there are so few decimal places available,
float is not used all that often.
1
41
Primitive Data Types
double
• A double is defined as 8 bytes, no matter
which operating system is used.
Range:
approximately 1.79769313486231570E+308
( 15 significant decimal digits )
• “double is the one to have when you’re having
more than one--decimal place, that is.”
• This is the most common choice for any decimal.
• double is the default, not float, therefore, no
special character is appended.
(See red arrow.)
1
42
Primitive Data Types
char
• A char is defined as 2 bytes, no matter which
operating system is used. A char type always refers
to a character in the Unicode encoding scheme.
[\uFFFF \u is the escape character syntax]
About 65,536 different characters can be represented.
• Single quotes denote a char constant
‘H’ is a char constant
“H” is a string that happens to only contain a
single character.
1
43
Primitive Data Types
char
• A char is defined as 2 bytes. A char type is a
single Unicode character.
[\uFFFF \u is the escape character syntax--65,536
different characters can be represented.]
• Single quotes denote a single-letter char constant
‘H’ is a char constant.
“H” is a String that happens to only contain a
single character--it is not a char.
This is a syntax error! The compiler will
44
1
complain.
Primitive Data Types
boolean
• A boolean type has only two values.
• In contrast to C/C++, in Java 0 and 1 cannot
stand in for true or false.
• A boolean type must be assigned the value of the
constants true or false.
[Meaning, these exact lowercase words.]

Java Math Operators

• Multiplication
*
• Division
/
• Modulus
%
All are binary operators, i.e., they work with two
numbers. They are executed according to the rules for
operator precedence. [page 1240]
(There is no operator for exponentiation
in Java)
1
46
Java Math Operators
• Multiplication
*
• What happens if you multiply variables of different types?
int x = 2;
double y = 3.889, sum = 0.000;
sum = y * x;
• The integer will be temporarily converted to a
double and two doubles will be multiplied.
• Afterwards, the original integer is unchanged.
1
47
Java Math Operators
• Rules for Temporary Conversions
1st Priority: If either of the operands is of type double, then the other
one is converted to double for the calculation.
2nd Priority: Otherwise, if either of the operands is of type float,
then the other one is converted to float for the calculation.
3rd Priority: Otherwise, if any of the operands is of type long, then
the other one is converted to long for the calculation.
Note: these conversions are automatic because none of them result in a
loss of accuracy.
1
48
Java Math Operators
• Static Casts
So, what happens when you desire to convert a double to a
float? Information will inevitably be lost.
• You accomplish this using a cast.
int x = 2, sum = 0;
double y = 3.889;
sum = (int)y * x;
{ sum is now equal to 6 }
• Here, a value of just 3 will be used for y.
• If you want to round y, you a method from class
Math:
sum = (int)Math.round(y) * x;
1
49
Java Math Operators
• Division
/
• Division can lead to unexpected results:
If both operands are integers, then the result of the
division is also an integer.
Any fractional part of the division is discarded.
Therefore:
17/3 = 5
1
50
Java Math Operators
• Modulus
%
• The modulus operator is confusing at first, but
eventually it becomes your good friend.
In contrast to the division operator, it returns the
remainder of any division. The modulus operator can
only be used when both operands are integers.
17 % 3 = 2
You say this “17 modulus 3 equals 2”
1
51
Comparison Operators
• These are used for selection structures:
equality
==
not equal
!=
greater than
>
less than
<
greater than or equal
>=
less than or equal
<=
1
52
Comparison Operators
• The equality operator is a common source of mistakes:
==
equality
Note that two equal signs are always used.
The single equal sign
[
=
] is only used for
assignment, that is, assigning the value on the right to the
variable on the left.
num1 = 33;
1
53
Comparison Operators
• When you make a compound symbol using the equal
sign, the equal sign is always on the right:
equality
==
not equal
!=
greater than or equal
>=
less than or equal
<=
1
54
“if” Statement Syntax
• Decision Making
• The if exactly mirrors C/C++, and it has three
variants:
1.)
if( expression )
statement;
2.)
if( expression )
statement;
else
statement;
3.)
if( expression )
statement;
else if( expression )

1
55
“if” Statement Syntax
• Simple if
• The “expression” must be something that uses the
comparison operators and resolves to either true or false.
if( expression )
{

statement2;
}
• The
