Methods, Data and Data Types Chapter 1-3
Wombat and leafs • Open up greenfootWombatWorld scenario • Lets reverse engineer Wombat class • Lets look at methods and data of this class? How and where?
Java language syntax • Comments: You can add comments to your program to explain the code // single line comment /* multiple line comment */ • Constructor is a special method that has the same name as the class; it has no return value
Data Types • Whole numbers: represented by : int • Example: intnumStudents; • Real numbers, numbers with fractional components, floating point numbers:float, double • Example: floatbodyTemp; doublesizeOfAtom; doubledistanceToMars; • Logic variable that holds true or false values: boolean • Example: boolean raining; // true or false
