EclipseTM Intergrated Development Environment (IDE) • Running Eclipse: Warning: Never check the “Use this as the default and do not ask again” box.
The importance of workspace • This is where you will find all your java files. • You can switch from one workspace to another. • You need to define the workspace first (where you want to put your files) before click on OK
EclipseTM tutorial Perspective is a set of related Views (windows) that enable a development specialist to perform specific tasks
Setting up preferences in Eclipse If you did not download the JDK earlier in this tutorial, and your existing JRE does not appear in the “Installed JREs” preference, you must add it yourself.
Create an Eclipse project From the Eclipse menu bar select File, New, Project to start the “New Project” wizard. Select “Java Project” and click “Next”.
Create a Java package • Structure in dot format: for example: com.tm.tutorial.main
Create Java classes Create Application class under com.tm.tutorial.main package

Printing heading Read a record false Record != null ? true Algorithm for printing a report (Report.java) Open file Print footer of the report processing genre*
Print information about a book Total price for each genre += price of the current book true Is another book has the same genre ? Read another book false Algorithm for process a book and a genre currentBook = record just read Current genre = genre of the current book Start a new genre and go back to processing a new genre

Numeric data Variable declaration: <data type> <variable_name>; If more than one variable has the same data type: <data type> <name1>, <name2>..;
Six numerical data types • byte: -128 to 127 • short:-32768 to 32767 (-215 to 215-1) • int: -231 to 231-1 • long: -263 to 263-1 • float: -3.4E+38 to 3.4E+38 • double:-1.797E+308 to 1.797E+308
Assignment statement <variable name> = <expression>; Example: x =2*5+6-1;
Variable names • It must be a legal identifier which is an unlimited series of characters that begins with a letter. • It must not be a keyword, a boolean literal (true or false), or the reserved word null. • It must be unique within its scope.
Variable name (cont.) • Legal identifier:be composed of letters, numbers, _ and $. Identifiers may only begin with a letter, _, or $. • Keyword: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/java/nutsandbolts/_keywords.html • Variable names begin with a lowercase letter • Class names begin with an uppercase letter
Constant and variables • Constant: • Value it contains doesn’t change final int MONTHS_IN_YEAR = 12; • Variables: • Value it contains may vary double loanAmount; • loanAmount =0; • loanAmount = 1000.99;
Integer division and type casting • Integer division: • Integer/integer = integer, 7/2 = 3 • Integer/double = double, 7/2.0 = 3.5 • Double/integer = double, 7.0/2 = 3.5 • Type casting: a process that converts a value of one data type to another data type.Implicit casting Explicit casting
Type casting (cont.) • Implicit casting: • Operand is converted from a lower to a higher precision • Higher precision: a data type with a larger range of values • Double has a higher precision than float • Int has a higher precision than short • Operand: can be a constant, variable, method call or another arithmetic expression
Type casting (cont.) • Explicit casting • (<data type>) <expression> • Example: float result; result = (float) ((3+5)/6); and result = ((float) (5+3))/6;
Simple Choice Statement if (<boolean expression>) <block>; else <block>; if (<boolean expression>) single statement; else single statement;
Boolean expression • Boolean expression: is a conditional expression that is evaluated to either true or false. • Conditional expression: is a three part expression: <exp.> <relational operators> <exp.> • Boolean expressions can be combined by boolean operators
Boolean operators && means AND || means OR ! means NOT
The While Loop while(<boolean expression>){ // Repeat multiple statements. statement 1 statement 2 statement 3 ... }
The Do Loop do{ // Repeat multiple statements. statement 1 statement 2 statement 3 ... } while(<boolean expression); • Note that the statements in the body of the loop are always executed at least one. • Note the final semicolon, which is required.
The For-Loop Outline // Repeat multiple statements. for(initialization; condition; post-body update){ // Statements to be repeated. statement 1 statement 2 statement 3 ... } • Commonly used with increment • and decrement operators.
Increment and Decrement • Used as a shorthand for add-one-to and subtract-one-from: • value = value+1; • value += 1; • value++; • Prefix and postfix forms: • ++value; • --value; • value--;
