    This document provides an overview of basic Java concepts including printing to the console using System.out.println(), comments, the main method signature, classes, compiling Java code, whitespace, and statements. It explains things like how to create single and multi-line comments, the required structure of a main method, what classes represent, how to compile individual class files, that whitespace is ignored, and that statements are terminated with a semicolon.

    Hello World

    Print Line
    System.out.println() can print to the console: System.out.println("Hello, world!");
    System is a class from the core library provided
    // Output: Hello, world!
    by Java
    out is an object that controls the output
    println() is a method associated with that object
    that receives a single argument

    Comments
    Comments are bits of text that are ignored by the // I am a single line comment!
    compiler. They are used to increase the readability of a
    program.
    Single line comments are created by using // . /*
    Multi-line comments are created by starting with And I am a
    /* and ending with */ .
    multi-line comment!
    */

    main() Method
    In Java, every application must contain a main() public class Person {
    method, which is the entry point for the application. All
    other methods are invoked from the main() method.
    The signature of the method is public static void public static void main(String[] args) {
    main(String[] args) { } . It accepts a single argument: an
    array of elements of type String . System.out.println("Hello, world!");

    }
    Classes
    A class represents a single concept. public class Person {
    A Java program must have one class whose name is the
    same as the program filename.
    In the example, the Person class must be declared in a public static void main(String[] args) {
    program file named Person.java.

    System.out.println("I am a person, not


    a computer.");

    Compiling Java
    In Java, when we compile a program, each individual class # Compile the class file:
    is converted into a .class file, which is known as byte
    javac hello.java
    code.
    The JVM (Java virtual machine) is used to run the byte
    code. # Execute the compiled file:
    java hello

    Whitespace
    Whitespace, including spaces and newlines, between System.out.println("Example of a
    statements is ignored.
    statement");

    System.out.println("Another statement");

    // Output:
    // Example of a statement
    // Another statement

    Statements
    In Java, a statement is a line of code that executes a task System.out.println("Java Programming ☕️");
    and is terminated with a ; .
