2. Programming Language Code10
Programming Language Code
A programming language is a language that uses specially defined words, grammar, and punctuation that a computer understands.
Some of the more popular programming languages are VisualBasic, C++, and Java.
Example:
Write Java code that finds the average miles per hour value for a given car trip.

The Compilation Process for Non-Java Programs
After writing a program, you'll normally want to have a computer perform the tasks specified by the program. Getting that to work is normally a two-step process:
1) Perform a compile command,
2) Perform a run command.
compile command, tell the computer to translate the program's instructions to a binary format (all 0's and 1's).
run command, tell the computer to read the binary-format instructions and perform the tasks specified by them.

4. The Compilation Process for Non-Java Programs11
The Compilation Process for Non-Java Programs
if you submit source code to a compiler, the compiler translate the source code and produces object code as the result.
Source code is the formal term for programming language instructions.
Object code is the formal term for binary-format instructions.

Programmers write this.
Compilers compile source code into object code.
object code (binary instructions)
Computers run this.

Portability
A piece of software is portable if it can be used on many different types of computers.
Object code is not portable. Those binary-format instructions are tied to a particular type of computer.
The Java solution to improve portability:
Java compilers don't compile all the way down to object code. Instead, they compile down to bytecode, which possesses the best features of both object code and source code:
Like object code, bytecode uses a format that works closely with computer hardware, so it runs fast.
Like source code, bytecode is generic, so it can be run on any type of computer.

7. Java Virtual Machine How can bytecode be run on any type of computer?15
Java Virtual Machine
How can bytecode be run on any type of computer?
As a Java program’s bytecode runs, the bytecode is translated into object code by the computer's bytecode interpreter program.
The bytecode interpreter program is known as the Java Virtual Machine, or JVM for short.

History of Java
In the early 1990's, putting intelligence into home appliances was thought to be the next "hot" technology.
Examples of intelligent home appliances:
Coffee pots and lights that can be controlled by a computer's programs.
Anticipating a strong market for such things, Sun Microsystems in 1991 funded a research project (code named Green) whose goal was to develop software for intelligent home appliances.
An intelligent home appliance's intelligence comes from its embedded processor chips and the software that runs on the processor chips.
To handle the frequent turnover of new chips, appliance software must be extremely portable.

10. 18
History of Java
Originally, Sun planned to use C++ for its home appliance software, but they soon realized that C++ was less than ideal because it wasn't portable enough and it relied too heavily on hard-to-maintain things called pointers.
Thus, Sun decided to develop a whole new programming language to handle its home appliance software needs.
Their new language was originally named Oak (for the tree that was outside project leader James Gosling's window), but it was soon changed to Java.
When the home appliance software work dried up, Java almost died before being released.
Fortunately for Java, the World Wide Web exploded in popularity and Sun realized it could capitalize on that.

11. 19
History of Java
Web pages have to be very portable because they can be downloaded onto any type of computer.
Java programs that are embedded in web pages are called applets.
Although applets still play a significant role in Java's current success, some of the other types of Java programs have surpassed applets in terms of popularity.
We cover Standard Edition (SE) Java applications.

15. Compiling/running a program
Write it.
code or source code: The set of instructions in a program.
Compile it.
compile: Translate a program from one language to another.
byte code: The Java compiler converts your code into a format named byte code that runs on many computer types.
Run (execute) it.
output: The messages printed to the user by a program.
source code
compile
byte code
run
output

17. A Simple Java Program Keyword Identifier for Class name
Modifier
Keyword
Identifier for Class name
// this program prints “Hello World” to screen public class HelloWorld { public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println("Hello World!"); } }
Comment
Main method declaration
Statement Calling the method for printing to screen
package cs243;
HelloWorld.java

18. Syntax
syntax: The set of legal structures and commands that can be used in a particular language.
Every basic Java statement ends with a semicolon ;
The contents of a class or method occur between { and }
syntax error (compiler error): A problem in the structure of a program that causes the compiler to fail.
Examples:
Missing semicolon
Too many or too few { } braces
Illegal identifier for class name
Class and file names do not match
...

19. A Java program Its output: public class Hello {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Hello, world!");
System.out.println();
System.out.println("This program produces");
System.out.println("four lines of output"); }
Its output:
Hello, world!
This program produces
four lines of output

20. System.out.println
A statement that prints a line of output on the console.
pronounced "print-linn"
sometimes called a "println statement" for short
Two ways to use System.out.println :
System.out.println("text");
Prints the given message as output.
System.out.println();
Prints a blank line of output. 20

21. Names and identifiers You must give your program a name.
public class GangstaRap {
Naming convention: capitalize each word (e.g. MyClassName)
Your program's file must match exactly (GangstaRap.java)
includes capitalization (Java is "case-sensitive")
identifier: A name given to an item in your program.
must start with a letter or _ or $
subsequent characters can be any of those or a number
legal: _myName TheCure ANSWER_IS_42 $bling$
illegal: me+u ers side-swipe Ph.D's

22. Keywords
keyword: An identifier that you cannot use because it already has a reserved meaning in Java.
abstract default if private this
boolean do implements protected throw
break double import public throws
byte else instanceof return transient
case extends int short try
catch final interface static void
char finally long strictfp volatile
class float native super while
const for new switch
continue goto package synchronized
i.e., You may not use char or while for the name of a class.

23. Strings string: A sequence of characters to be printed.
Starts and ends with a " quote " character.
The quotes do not appear in the output.
Examples: "hello" "This is a string. It's very long!"
Restrictions:
May not span multiple lines. "This is not a legal String."
May not contain a " character. "This is not a "legal" String either." 23

24. Escape sequences
escape sequence: A special sequence of characters used to represent certain special characters in a string.
\t tab character
\n new line character
\" quotation mark character
\\ backslash character
Example: System.out.println("\\hello\nhow\tare \"you\"?\\\\");
Output: \hello how are "you"?\\

25. Questions What println statements will generate this output?
This program prints a
quote from the Gettysburg Address.
"Four score and seven years ago,
our 'fore fathers' brought forth on
this continent a new nation."
A "quoted" String is
'much' better if you learn
the rules of "escape sequences."
Also, "" represents an empty String.
Don't forget: use \" instead of " !
'' is not the same as "
