Important Java Reality

A Java program consists of one or more class


declarations.

Every program statement must be placed inside a class.

public class Java0202


{
public static void main (String args[ ])
{
System.out.println("Plain Simple Text Output");
}
}
Program Modules

Program development requires that large


programs are divided into smaller program
modules to be manageable.

This is the principle of divide and conquer.


Structured Programming

Structured Programming is an organized


style of programming that places emphasis
on modular programming, which aids testing,
debugging and modifying.

In structured programming, modules are


procedures and functions that process
external data passed by parameters.
Casual OOP Definition

Object Oriented Programming is a programming


style with heavy emphasis on program reliability
through modular programming.

In object oriented programming, modules contain


both the data and subroutines that process the data.

In Java the modules are called classes and the


process-subroutines are smaller modules called
methods.
Formal OOP Definition

Object Oriented Programming is a style of


programming that incorporates program
development in a language with the following
three OOP traits:

• Encapsulation
• Polymorphism
• Inheritance
OOP
Example
A car could be an object in Java.
Objects have attributes and methods.

Car Attributes Car Methods


Make & Model Drive
Color Park
# of Doors Reverse
# of Seats Tow
Encapsulation

Car Attributes Car Methods


Make & Model Drive
Color Park
# of Doors Reverse
# of Seats Tow

Encapsulation is the process of placing a data


structure’s data (attributes) with the methods
(actions) that act upon the data inside the same
module, called a class in Java.
Inheritance

Inheritance is the process of using features (both


attributes and actions) from an established higher
class. The higher class is called the superclass.
The lower class is called the subclass.

A Truck is a Car with 4WD, big tires, and a bed.


A Limo is a very long luxury Car with many seats.
A Racecar is a Car with 1 seat, a very powerful
engine, and a number painted on the side.
Polymorphism

Polymorphism allows a single accessing


feature, such as an operator, method or class
identifier, to have many forms.

This is hardly a clear explanation. Since the word


polymorphism is used in the formal OOP definition, a brief
explanation is provided, but details of this powerful OOP
concept will come in a later chapter.
Class

A class is a user-defined data type that


encapsulates both data and the
methods that act upon the data.
Object or Instance
An object is one instance of a class.

A class is a type and an object is a variable.

Cat is a class and Fluffy is an object or one instance


of the Cat class.

Objects can be discussed in a general sense, such as


in Object Oriented Programming.

This causes confusion between Object, the concept


and object, the instance of a class.

There is a tendency to use instance when referring to


one variable example of a class.
Attributes or Instance Variables

The data components of a class are


the class attributes and they are
also called instance variables.

Instance variables should only be


accessed by methods of the same
class.
Methods
Methods are action modules that process data.

In other languages such modules may be called


subroutines, procedures and functions.

In Java the modules are called methods.

They are declared inside a class module and


process the instance variables.
Instantiation
Instantiation is the moment or instance that
memory is allocated for a specific object of a class.

Statements like

• the construction of an object


• the definition of an object
• the creation of an object

all have the same meaning as

the instantiation of an object.


// Java1401.java
// Stage-1 of the Person class.
// Only the Person class data attributes are declared.
// Each stage of the Person class will have its own number to
// distinguish between the different stages.

public class Java1401


{
public static void main(String args[])
{
System.out.println("Person Class, Stage 1\n");
Person01 p = new Person01();
System.out.println();
}
}

class Person01
{
String name;
int yearBorn;
int education;
}
Class Declaration Location

In most cases a class declaration is located


outside any other class declaration.

It is possible to declare one class inside


another class (inner class), which will be
explained later.
Instantiation and Construction

An object is created with the new operator.

The creation of a new object is called the:

instantiation of an object
construction of an object

The special method that is called during the


instantiation of a new object is called a
constructor.
// Java1402.java
// Stage-2 of the Person class.
// This stage adds a default "no-parameter" constructor to the Person class.
public class Java1402
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
System.out.println("Person Class, Stage 2\n");
Person02 p = new Person02();
System.out.println();
}
}
class Person02
{
String name;
int yearBorn;
int education;

Person02()
{
System.out.println("Calling Default Constructor");
name = "John Doe";
yearBorn = 1980;
education = 0;
}
}
Constructor Notes
A constructor is a method with the same
identifier as the class.

Constructors are neither void nor return


methods.

A constructor is called during the instantiation


of an object.

Constructors without parameters are default


constructors.
// Java1403.java
// Stage-3 of the Person class.
// This stage accesses Person data directly, which is very poor OOP design
// by violating encapsulation, which may cause side effects.
public class Java1403
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
System.out.println("Person Class, Stage 3\n");
Person03 p = new Person03();
System.out.println("Name: " + p.name);
System.out.println("Born: " + p.yearBorn);
System.out.println("Education: " + p.education);
}
}

class Person03
{
String name;
int yearBorn;
int education;
Person03()
{
System.out.println("Calling Default Constructor");
name = "John Doe"; yearBorn = 1980; education = 0;
}
}
// Java1404.java
// Stage-4 of the Person class.
// In this program direct access to Person data is denied by declaring all class data private.
// This program will not compile.
public class Java1404
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
System.out.println("Person Class, Stage 4\n");
Person04 p = new Person04();
System.out.println("Name: " + p.name);
System.out.println("Year Born: " + p.yearBorn);
System.out.println("Education: " + p.education);
System.out.println();
}
}
class Person04
{
private String name;
private int yearBorn;
private int education;
public Person04()
{
System.out.println("Calling Default Constructor");
name = "John Doe"; yearBorn = 1980; education = 0;
}
}
// Java1405.java
// Stage-5 of the Person class.
// The private data of the Person class is now properly accessed with
// public member "get methods" of the Person class.
public class Java1405
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
System.out.println("Person Class, Stage 5\n");
Person05 p = new Person05();
System.out.println("Name: " + p.getName());
System.out.println("Year Born: " + p.getYearBorn());
System.out.println("Education: " + p.getEducation());
}
}
class Person05
{
private String name;
private int yearBorn;
private int education;
public Person05()
{
System.out.println("Calling Default Constructor");
name = "John Doe"; yearBorn = 1980; education = 0;
}
public int getYearBorn() { return yearBorn; }
public String getName() { return name; }
public int getEducation() { return education; }
}
Private and Public Class Members
The principle of encapsulation requires that object data
members are only accessed by methods of the same object.

Private class members of some object x can only be


accessed by methods of the same x object.

Public class members of some object x can be accessed by


any client of object x.

Data attributes of a class should be declared private.

Methods of a class are usually declared public, but there are


special helper methods that may also be declared private.

Helper methods will be demonstrated later in this chapter.


// Java1406.java Stage-6 of the Person class. This stage adds a second "parameter-constructor" to the Person class.

Working with Multiple Files
Create a separate file for each class in the
program or at least a file that is manageable in
size with several small classes.

Make sure there is only one file with a main


method, known as the main file.

Place all the files in the same folder and compile


each file separately.

Execute the entire program by executing the


main file.

a new object as a copy of an existing object.

A copy constructor uses a single parameter, which is


an object of the same class as the copy constructor.

Objects and Simple Data Types
Store Information Differently

Simple (primitive) data types store assigned


values directly in their allocated memory
locations.

Objects store memory references of the


memory locations allocated during the
construction of the object.
Aliasing

Aliasing occurs when two or more variables


reference the same memory location.

Any change in the value of one variable


brings about a change in the value of the
other variable(s).

// This program demonstrates the difference between simple, primitive data and objects.

Java Parameters
Java passes information to a method with parameters.

A copy of the calling parameter is assigned to the receiving parameter in


the method.

In the case of a simple/primitive data type, a copy of the variable’s value


(like 23, ‘A’, or true) is what is sent in the parameter. Any changes are
changes to a copy, which has no affect the original.

The same thing actually happens in the case of an object; however, with
an object the value is the memory address of the object itself. If this is
changed, it does not affect the memory address of the original object.

The only way changes made in a method remain after the method is if
the changes are made to the attributes of an object.

NOTE: Strings are objects, even though they tend to behave like
simple/primitive data types in some programs.
The true nature of Strings will be discussed in great detail in Chapter 16.

Class Methods
It is possible to access methods directly without first creating
an object. Methods that are accessed in this manner are
called Class Methods.

Class methods need to be declared with the static keyword


used in the heading like:

public static double add(double a, double b)


{
return a + b;
}
Accessing a class method is done with the class identifier,
followed by the method identifier, like:

System.out.println(Calc.add(X,Y));
It is possible to access static methods with object identifiers.
This is considered poor styling and should be avoided.
// Java1422.java
// This program is an example of multiple objects using the same static class attribute. Note
// how the use of object identifiers with object methods and the class identifiers with class methods.

public static void main(String[] args)

" compared to " + Game.getHS() + " high score\n");

if (newScore > Game.getHS()) Game.setHS(newScore);

System.out.println(p3.getName() + "'s score is " + p3.getScore() +
" compared to " + Game.getHS() + " high score\n");

if (newScore > Game.getHS()) Game.setHS(newScore);

Static Methods and Attributes

Static methods and static attributes can be


accessed for the entire duration of a program.

Static variables (attributes) can be accessed by


static methods and object methods.

Instance variables (attributes) can only be


accessed by object methods.

Static attributes can be accessed with object


identifiers and class identifiers.
