Creating Class
The template or blueprint from which objects are actually made.
Syntax: class ClassName{ //definition of class } All code that you write in Java is inside a class.
Classes can be built by extending other classes

4/28
Constructor - how to instance an object?
Same name as the class. A class can have more than one constructor. A constructor can take zero, one, or more parameters.
Has no return value.

Always called with the new operator. Use for initializing variables and invoking any methods that may be for initialization. If a class does not have an explicit constructor, a default constructor (no-argument) is provided.

Dissecting the Rectangle class

Name of class
1. Use Naming rules
Data member
2. Always captain first letter
data does it need to 3. What Use Noun for naming Constructor know? Define the way to instance object
1. Same name as the class name Methods 2. Like function in C but return value Whathave can no it do? 1. Like function in C 2. Use Verb for naming 3. Always lower first letter

Creating objects (instance object)
An object must be created before using in a program.
1.
Declare a variable to store the object reference. 1. Objects can only be manipulated via references
Creating an object. 1. Using the new operator in conjunction with a call to a constructor

#2 Data Member
Instance Variables Class Variables
FPT- APTECH
8/28
Instance variables
The values of those variables define the state of object. All instances of a class have the same instance variables May have different values inside them. Has an access modifier associated with it.
FPT- APTECH
9/28
Example of Instance variables
recA
length = 3.0 width = 4.0
recB
length = 6.4 width = 4.7

10/28
Class Variables (Static Variables)
Variable that is accessed without using an object of a class. Declare using the static keyword. Only one copy of a static variable is shared by all the objects of the class. Change in the value of static variable is reflected by all the objects of the class.

#3 - Methods
Definition Instance Method Calling method and Passing Arguments by Value. Calling method and Passing Arguments by Reference. Static Methods Variable Argument Methods
FPT- APTECH
13/28
Method
A method is defined as the actual implementation of an operation on an object. Syntax:
access_specifier modifier datatype method_name (parameter_list) { //body of the method }
The method name should begin with a lowercase verb and follow with a proper noun.
FPT- APTECH
14/28
Instance Method
A function defined in a class Invoked by an instance object and can access instance variables Provide a mechanism for accessing the private data stored in an object
FPT- APTECH
15/28
Invoking Methods
Using the '.' operator
Syntax: <the object reference> . <the method to be invoked>
FPT- APTECH
16/28
Calling method and Passing Arguments by Value.
Value from calling method is passed as an argument to the called method. Any change made to that passed value in the called method will not modify the value in the calling method. Variables of primitive types (int, float ..) are passed by value.
FPT- APTECH
17/28
Example of Calling method and Passing Arguments by Value.
FPT- APTECH
18/28
Calling method and Passing Arguments by Reference.
Called method to change the value of the parameter passed to if from the calling method. When references are passed as parameters, the caller can change the values stored but not the reference variables.
FPT- APTECH
19/28
Example of Calling method and Passing Arguments by Reference
FPT- APTECH
20/28
Static Methods
Methods that do not operate on objects. Can be called without creating any objects of the class. Call static method, supply the name of the class.
Declared using the static keyword.

Can directly refer only to static variables and other static methods of the class. Cannot refer to non-static methods and variables
FPT- APTECH
21/28
Example of Static Methods
FPT- APTECH
22/28
static methods usage
When a method doesn't need to access the object state When a method only needs to access static fields of the class.
FPT- APTECH
23/28
Variable Argument Methods
Allow calling a method with variable number of arguments.
FPT- APTECH
24/28
#4 - Initializer
Concept Object Field Initializer
FPT- APTECH
25/28
Concept of Initializer
Initializers are small pieces of code embedded in curly braces that perform initialization:

class block class field object block object field
class Test { static boolean b;// Automatic static double d=1.2; // Explicit static { System.out.println (Block"); System.out.println (d); } }
FPT- APTECH
26/28
Object Field Initializer
Object field initializers also known as instance initializers
Are declared inside a class, but outside the constructor and method definitions.
public class A { //instance field initializer float price=9.50F; String str1; String str2; //instance block initializer { str1 = AAA; str2 = BBB; } public static void main(String[] args) { } }
