Introduction to Java
Java is a high-level, object-oriented programming language. It was developed by Sun Microsystems
(now owned by Oracle) in 1995. Java is known for its "Write Once, Run Anywhere" feature, meaning
compiled Java code can run on any platform with a Java Virtual Machine (JVM).
Key Features:
- Platform Independent
- Object-Oriented
- Secure and Robust
- Multithreaded and Concurrent
Applications of Java:
- Web applications
- Mobile development (Android apps)
- Enterprise systems
- Scientific applications
Setting Up the Environment

To get started with Java, follow these steps:
1. Download the Java Development Kit (JDK) from the Oracle website or OpenJDK.
2. Install an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) such as IntelliJ IDEA, Eclipse, or VS Code.
3. Verify installation by opening a terminal/command prompt and typing:
```
java -version
javac -version
```
4. Write and run your first program:
```java
public class HelloWorld {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Hello, World!");
```
Java Basics
Java programs are structured into classes and methods. Below are the basics:
Data Types:
- Primitive: int, double, char, boolean, etc.
- Non-Primitive: Strings, Arrays, Classes.
Variables:
- Declaration and initialization example:
```java
int age = 25;
double salary = 50000.75;
boolean isActive = true;
String name = "John";
```
Operators:
- Arithmetic, Logical, Relational, Assignment, Bitwise, etc.
Example:
```java
int a = 5, b = 10;
System.out.println(a + b); // Output: 15
```
Control Statements:
- Conditional: if, else, switch
- Loops: for, while, do-while
Example:
```java
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
System.out.println(i);
```
Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)

Java is based on OOP principles:
1. **Encapsulation**:
- Wrapping data and methods in a single unit.
```java
class Person {
private String name;
public String getName() {

return name;
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
```
2. **Inheritance**:
- One class inherits properties of another.
```java
class Animal {
void eat() {
System.out.println("This animal eats food.");
class Dog extends Animal {
void bark() {
System.out.println("Dog barks.");
```
3. **Polymorphism**:
- One name, multiple implementations.

```java
class Animal {
void sound() {
System.out.println("This is an animal sound.");
class Dog extends Animal {
@Override
void sound() {
System.out.println("Bark!");
```
4. **Abstraction**:
- Hiding implementation details.
```java
abstract class Shape {
abstract void draw();
class Circle extends Shape {
void draw() {
System.out.println("Drawing a Circle.");
}
```
Exception Handling
Java provides robust mechanisms to handle runtime errors:
Using try-catch-finally:
```java
try {
int result = 10 / 0; // This will throw ArithmeticException
} catch (ArithmeticException e) {
System.out.println("Cannot divide by zero.");
} finally {
System.out.println("Execution finished.");
```
Advanced Topics
1. **Collections Framework**:
- Provides data structures such as ArrayList, HashMap, and HashSet.
Example:
```java
import java.util.ArrayList;
public class Example {
ArrayList<String> list = new ArrayList<>();
list.add("Java");
list.add("Python");
System.out.println(list);
```
2. **Multithreading**:
- Enables simultaneous execution of threads.
Example:
```java
class MyThread extends Thread {
public void run() {
System.out.println("Thread is running.");
public class Main {
MyThread t1 = new MyThread();
t1.start();
```
3. **File Handling**:
```java
import java.io.FileWriter;
public class FileExample {
try {
FileWriter writer = new FileWriter("example.txt");
writer.write("Hello, File Handling!");
writer.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
```
