  1. Chapter 2Classes and Methods I Lecture Slides to Accompany An Introduction to Computer Science Using Java (2nd Edition) by S.N. Kamin, D. Mickunas, E. Reingold

  2. Chapter Preview In this chapter we will: • describe structure of Java programs • present techniques for creating and using class instances • introduce two classes for doing output: • OutputBox for text output • DrawingBox for graphical output

  3. Running Java Programs • Enter the program source code in a data file called Hitwall.java using an editor • Compile the source program by typing javac Hitwall.java • Execute the compiled program by typing java Hitwall

  4. Program Elements – Part 1 • white space • blank lines and spaces includes in program source listings to make things more readable • comments • lines beginning with two slashes // • single or multiple lines enclosed by /* */ • that allow the programmer to insert notes to help other people understand the program • documentation • program comments and data files describing a program’s structure and behavior

  5. Program Elements – Part 2 • import directive • tells the Java compiler which packages the program makes use of • packages • predefined collections of programs providing services to many programmers (e.g. CSLib.* package used throughout the text) • class heading • needs to be included at the beginning of every program • class name must match root of file name • each class must be stored in a file of its own

  6. Program Elements – Part 3 • main method • the chief computational unit of a Java application • executed first when application is run • functions • also known as methods • define operations that may be applied to a Java data object (class instance) • body • Java statements that contain the implementations of classes and their methods

  7. Program Elements – Part 4 • variable declaration • statement giving the name and data type of a data location used by the program • executable statement • statement which manipulates variables or determines program control during execution • atomic statements • single Java expressions terminated by a ; • variable assignment statement • executable statement which copies a particular value to a data location

  8. Identifiers • Java uses identifiers to name • variables • methods • classes • packages • Syntax rules • Must begin with a letter (upper- or lower-case) • May be followed by any number (including 0) of letters and digits • The characters $ and _ are considered letters • Java identifier names are case sensitive • May not duplicate a Java keyword (e.g. class or main)

  9. Building a Simple Class import CSLib.*; public class WarningMouse { // Exterminate a rodent. // Author: C. Mickunas 11/21/00 public void shout() { TrickMouse alert; alert = new TrickMouse(); alert.setTitle(“WARNING”); alert.speak(“Look out!”); } }

  10. Method shout( ) • public method • Means that methods in other classes (or clients) may use it • void return type • Means it does not return a value to the caller (client)

  11. OutputBox Class • int literals 0, 1, -1, 2, -2, 3, -3, … • double literals 3.45, -48.2, 33.0, … • print • Display text representation of argument and leave output cursor on the same line • println • Display text representation of argument and advance output cursor to the next line

  12. Using OutputBox import CSLib.*; public class Forecast { // Give the weather forecast. // Author: E. Reingold 11/12/00 public void predict() { OutputBox out; out = new OutputBox(); out.print(“The temperature will be ”); out.print(-10); out.println(“ degrees.”); out.println(“That’s cold, folks!”); } }

  13. DrawingBox Window • A DrawingBox window is divided into a rectangular grid of picture elements (pixels) • The size of a pixel depends on the resolution (the number of pixels in the grid) of your workstation monitor • A typical screen resolution might be 1028 by 768 pixels. • Pixels may have two colors (black or white) or many colors (depending on the resolution of the monitor)

  14. Using DrawingBox import CSLib.*; public class Concentric { // Draw concentric circles. // Author: A. Baranowicz 12/2/00 public void drawThem() { DrawingBox g; g = new DrawingBox(); g.setDrawableSize(300, 300); g.drawOval(110, 110, 80, 80); g.drawOval(95, 95, 110, 110); g.drawOval(80, 80, 140, 140); } }

  15. Concentric Client Program import CSLib.*; public class ConcentricClient { public static void main(String[] args) { Concentric circles; circles = new Concentric(); circles.drawThem(); } }

  16. Color • DrawingBox defines several symbolic constants to simplify selecting drawing colors Color.white, Color.black, Color.red, Color.blue, etc. • You may select the color to draw with by calling setColor before drawing g.SetColor(Color.blue); g.fill Rectangle(0, 0, 50, 25);
