Comp Prog 1 Java Syntax

Java syntax consists of rules that define how to structure Java programs, including the basic structure of a program, data types, variables, constants, operators, control flow statements, methods, classes, and exception handling. Key elements include the class definition, the main method as the entry point, and various data types like int, double, char, and boolean. Java is a statically-typed, object-oriented language that utilizes control flow statements such as if statements, switch statements, for loops, and while loops.

JAVA SYNTAX

Prepared by ： Elcris M. Timbal


Java syntax is the set of
rules that defines the
combinations of symbols that
are considered to be correctly
structured Java programs.
Here’s a basic overview of Java
syntax and some key elements:
Basic Structure
A simple Java program structure looks like this:

public class Main: Defines a class named Main. In Java, everything must be
inside a class.
public static void main(String[] args): This is the entry point of any Java
application. The main method is where the program starts executing.
System.out.println("Hello, World!");: This line prints "Hello, World!" to the
Data Types

Java is a statically-typed language, which means you must declare


the type of a variable before using it. Some basic data types include:

• int: Integer values (int x = 5;)


• double: Floating-point numbers (double y = 4.5;)
• char: Single characters (char letter = 'A’;)
• boolean: True or false values (boolean isTrue = true;)
Variables and Constants
Variables: Store data that can change. They must be declared with a type and can
be initialized
Examples at the same time.
of Valid
Identifiers

Constants: Store data that should not change. Declared using the final keyword.
Operators

Exampes of Invalid
Identifiers
Java supports a variety of operators,
including:
Arithmetic Operators: +, -, *, /, %
Relational Operators: ==, !=, >, <, >=, <=
Logical Operators: &&, ||, !
Control Flow

Java provides several control flow statements:


If Statement: Executes code based on a condition.
Control Flow
Java provides several control flow statements:
Switch Statement: Chooses a block of code to execute based
on the value of a variable.
Control Flow
Java provides several control flow statements:
For Loop: Repeats a block of code a specific number of times.
Control Flow
Java provides several control flow statements:
While Loop: Repeats a block of code as long as a condition is
true.
Methods

Methods define a block of code that performs a task and can return a
result.
Classes and Objects
Java is an object-oriented language. Classes are blueprints for
creating objects.

Exception Handling
Java uses try-catch blocks to handle exceptions (errors).
