4. Chapter 5Program development3 EDIT COMPILE RUN errors Result Source code pico prog.java javac prog.java java prog

5. Chapter 5High-level languages4 qMachine language: computer’s native language. Add two numbers: 00100111 1010 0101 qAssembly language: uses mnemonics. Add two numbers: ADD R1 R2 An assembly code needs to be translated to machine code.

6. Chapter 5High-level languages5 qHigh-level programming languages: bridging the gap between machine language and natural languages. qExamples: COBOL, Fortran, Algol, C Add two numbers (in C): Z = A + B; qCompilation: translation to machine code.

7. Chapter 5A Java program6 qA sample Java program // A Java program to read a number and compute and display its square. import java.io.*; class square { public static void main(String arg[]) throws IOException { int n; BufferedReader stdin = new BufferedReader (new InputStreamReader (System.in)); System.out.print ("Enter the number to be square: "); n = Integer.parseInt (stdin.readLine()); System.out.println ("The square of " + n + " is " + n*n); }

8. Chapter 5Compilation in Java7 qUse the javac command to compile: javac prog.java qProduces the object file with extension.class (eg: prog.class) qTo run object file, use the java command: java prog

9. Chapter 5Errors8 qCompilation errors: occur during compilation. uReason: syntax errors. uEasy to rectify. qRun-time errors: occur during execution. uReasons: logic errors, data errors, computation errors. uHarder to rectify.
