Structure of a Java
Program
This presentation will delve into the fundamental building blocks of
Java programming, guiding you through the essential elements
that constitute a well-structured Java program.
Introduction to Java
Object-Oriented Platform-Independent
Java is an object-oriented programming language, Java programs can run on different platforms (like
which means it uses objects to represent data and Windows, macOS, or Linux) without requiring
functionality. modifications.
Java Syntax Basics
1 Keywords 2 Identifiers
Reserved words in Java with specific meanings. Names given to classes, variables, and methods.
3 Data Types 4 Operators
Represent the types of data a program can handle. Symbols that perform operations on data.
Java Variables and
Data Types
Primitive Data Types Reference Data Types
Basic building blocks of Represent complex data
data, such as integers, structures, such as objects,
floating-point numbers, arrays, and strings.
characters, and booleans.
Java Operators and
Expressions
Arithmetic Operators Comparison Operators
Perform arithmetic operations Compare values and return
like addition, subtraction, boolean results (true or false).
multiplication, and division.
Logical Operators Bitwise Operators
Combine boolean expressions Work on individual bits of data.
to create complex conditions.
Java Control Flow
Statements
1 Conditional Statements
Execute different blocks of code based on certain
conditions.
2 Loops
Repeat a block of code until a specific condition is met.
Java Methods and
Functions
Method Definition
Specifies the name, parameters, and return type of a
method.
Method Call
Executes a method and potentially passes arguments.
Return Value
The result of a method's execution.
Java Classes and Objects
Classes
1 Blueprints for creating objects.
Objects
2
Instances of classes, representing real-world entities.
Encapsulation
3
Bundling data and methods within a class.
Java Inheritance and Polymorphism
Inheritance
1
Allows a class to inherit properties and methods from a parent class.
Polymorphism
2 The ability of an object to take on multiple forms
based on its type.
Java Exception Handling
1 2
Try Block Catch Block
Encloses code that might throw Handles exceptions thrown in
exceptions. the try block.
3
Finally Block
Code executed regardless of
whether an exception is thrown
or caught.
