[java tutorial] Java basic syntax

Java basic syntax

A Java program can be thought of as a collection of objects, and these objects work together by calling each other's methods. The following briefly introduces the concepts of classes, objects, methods and instance variables.

Object: An object is an instance of a class and has state and behavior. For example, a dog is an object. Its status includes: color, name, and breed; its behaviors include: wagging its tail, barking, eating, etc.

Class: A class is a template that describes the behavior and status of a type of object.

Method: Method is behavior, and a class can have many methods. Logical operations, data modification, and all actions are completed in methods.

Instance variables: Each object has unique instance variables, and the state of the object is determined by the values ​​of these instance variables.

The first Java program

The following is a simple Java program that will print the string Hello World

public class MyFirstJavaProgram {
   /* 第一个Java程序.  
    * 它将打印字符串 Hello World
    */
    public static void main(String []args) {
       System.out.println("Hello World"); // 打印 Hello World
    }
}

The following will introduce step by step how to save, compile and run this Program:

Open Notepad and add the above code;

Save the file name as: MyFirstJavaProgram.java;

Open the cmd command window and enter the directory where the target file is located The location, assuming it is C:

, type javac MyFirstJavaProgram.java in the command line window and press the enter key to compile the code. If there are no errors in the code, the cmd command prompt will go to the next line. (Assuming the environment variables are all set).

Type java MyFirstJavaProgram and press Enter to run the program

You will see Hello World in the window

C : > javac MyFirstJavaProgram.java
C : > java MyFirstJavaProgram 
Hello World

Basic syntax

Writing When writing Java programs, you should pay attention to the following points:

Case sensitivity: Java is case-sensitive, which means that the identifiers Hello and hello are different.

Class name: For all classes, the first letter of the class name should be capitalized. If the class name consists of several words, the first letter of each word should be capitalized, for example, MyFirstJavaClass .

Method name: All method names should start with a lowercase letter. If the method name contains several words, the first letter of each subsequent word is capitalized.

Source file name: The source file name must be the same as the class name. When saving the file, you should use the class name as the filename (remember Java is case-sensitive) and the filename suffix .java. (If the file name and class name are different, a compilation error will occur).

Main method entry: All Java programs start execution from the public static void main(String args[]) method.

Java identifiers

All components of Java require names. Class names, variable names, and method names are all called identifiers.

Regarding Java identifiers, there are the following points to note:

All identifiers should start with a letter (A-Z or a-z), dollar sign ($), or underscore (_)

The first character can be followed by any combination of characters

Keywords cannot be used as identifiers

Identifiers are case-sensitive

Legal identifiers Examples: age, $salary, _value, __1_value

Illegal identifier examples: 123abc, -salary

Java modifiers

Like other languages, Java can use modifiers To modify the methods and properties in the class. There are two main types of modifiers:

Accessible modifiers: default, public, protected, private

Inaccessible modifiers: final, abstract, strictfp

at the back We will discuss Java modifiers in depth in this chapter.

Java variables

There are mainly the following types of variables in Java

Local variables

Class variables (static variables)

Member variables (non-static variables)

Java arrays

Arrays are objects stored on the heap and can store multiple variables of the same type. In later chapters, we will learn how to declare, construct, and initialize an array.

Java Enumerations

Java 5.0 introduced enumerations, which restrict variables to preset values. Using enumerations can reduce bugs in your code.

例如，我们为果汁店设计一个程序，它将限制果汁为小杯、中杯、大杯。这就意味着它不允许顾客点除了这三种尺寸外的果汁。

实例

class FreshJuice {
   enum FreshJuiceSize{ SMALL, MEDUIM, LARGE }
   FreshJuiceSize size;
}
public class FreshJuiceTest {
   public static void main(String args[]){
      FreshJuice juice = new FreshJuice();
      juice.size = FreshJuice. FreshJuiceSize.MEDUIM ;
   }
}

注意：枚举可以单独声明或者声明在类里面。方法、变量、构造函数也可以在枚举中定义。

Java注释

类似于C/C++，Java也支持单行以及多行注释。注释中的字符将被Java编译器忽略。

public class MyFirstJavaProgram{
   /* 这是第一个Java程序
    *它将打印Hello World
    * 这是一个多行注释的示例
    */
    public static void main(String []args){
       // 这是单行注释的示例
       /* 这个也是单行注释的示例 */
       System.out.println("Hello World"); 
    }
}

Java 空行

空白行，或者有注释的的行，Java编译器都会忽略掉。

继承

In Java, a class can be derived from other classes. If you are creating a class and there is already a class that has the properties or methods you need, then you can inherit the newly created class from that class.

Using inheritance, you can reuse methods and properties of existing classes without having to rewrite these codes. The inherited class is called a super class, and the derived class is called a subclass.

Interface

In Java, interface can be understood as a protocol for mutual communication between objects. Interfaces play a very important role in inheritance.

The interface only defines the methods to be used by the derived class, but the specific implementation of the method completely depends on the derived class.

The next section introduces classes and objects in Java programming. Afterwards you will have a clearer understanding of classes and objects in Java.
