2. Overloading methods
• Overloading is ability of one function to perform different tasks.
• it allows creating several methods with the same name which differ from each
other in the type of the input and the output
class Demo_class
{ /* having same method name*/
void demo()
{ System.out.println("hello world"); }
void demo(int a)
{ System.out.println("the value of a::"+a); }
public static void main(String[] y)
{ Demo_class d=new Demo_class();
d.demo();
d.demo(10);
}
}

3. Overloading Constructor
• In addition to overloading normal methods,you can also overload
constructor methods
class Demo_Constructor_overload
{ Demo_Constructor_overload()
{ System.out.println("hello default constructor");
}
Demo_Constructor_overload(String s)
{ System.out.println("hello default constructor 1::"+s);
}
public static void main(String[] a1)
{ Demo_Constructor_overload d=new Demo_Constructor_overload();
Demo_Constructor_overload d1=new Demo_Constructor_overload
("yugandhar");
}
}

4. Uses of method Overloading
• The main advantage of this is cleanliness of
code.
• the use of function overloading is to save the
memory space, consistency and readabiliy.

5. Objects as parameters to methods
class Rectangle
{ int lenght,width;
Rectangle(int lenght,int width)
{ this.lenght=lenght;
this.width=width;
}
void print_values(Rectangle r)
{ System.out.println("the value of member length "+r.lenght+"n the
value of member variable width is::"+this.width);
}
}
public class Demo_object_paramter
{ public static void main(String[] y)
{ Rectangle r=new Rectangle(10,20);
r.print_values(r);
}
}

6. Objects as parameters to Constructor
class Rectangle
{ int lenght,width;
Rectangle(int lenght,int width)
{ this.lenght=lenght;
this.width=width;
}
Rectangle(Rectangle r)
{ System.out.println("the member varialbe lenght::"+r.lenght+"n the
member varialbe height::"+r.width);
}
}
public class Demo_object_paramter
{ public static void main(String[] y)
{ Rectangle r=new Rectangle(30,20);
Rectangle r1=new Rectangle(r);
}
}

7. Returning objects
• A method can return any type of data,including class types that you create
class Rectangle
{ int length,width;
Rectangle demo(int length,int width)
{ this.length=length;
this.width=width;
return(this);
}
}
public class Demo_object_paramter
{ public static void main(String[] y)
{ Rectangle r=new Rectangle();
Rectangle r1=r.demo(30,40);
System.out.println("the value of length is::"+r1.length+"n the value of
width is::"+r1.width);
}
}

8. Recursion
• Recursion is a basic programming technique you can use in Java, in which a
method calls itself to solve some problem.
• A method that uses this technique is recursive.
class Factorial
{ int fact(int n)
{ int result;
if(n==1)
return 1;
result=fact(n-1)*n;
return result;
}
}
public class Recursion_1
{ public static void main(String[] y)
{ Factorial f=new Factorial();
System.out.println("the factorial value is::"+f.fact(5));
}
}

9. String Class
• The first thing to understand about strings is that every string you create is
actually an object of type string . Every string constant is actually a string
Object.
• Eg System.out.println(“hello world”);
• The secound thing to understand about strings is that objects of type
String are immutable once string objects are created ,its content can not
be altered.
public class Private_AccessDemo
{ public static void main(String[] y)
{ String s=new String("yugandhar");
System.out.println("the s String is::"+s);
System.out.println("the String length::"+s.length());
String s1=new String("programmer");
System.out.println("the String concatination "+s+s1);
}
}

10. Declaring String Array
public static void main(String[] y)
{ String[] s=new String[3];//string array with 3
Scanner sc=new Scanner(System.in);//taking input at run time from user
for(int i=0;i<s.length;i++)
s[i]=sc.nextLine();
for(int i=0;i<s.length;i++)
System.out.println(" "+s[i]);
}

11. Some String Methods
public class Private_AccessDemo
{ public static void main(String[] y)
{ String s="yugandhar";
System.out.println("the upper case::"+s.toUpperCase());
System.out.println("the upper case::"+s.toLowerCase());
System.out.println("the replace ::"+s.replace('a','r'));
System.out.println("the charAt ::"+s.charAt(8));
}
}

12. String Buffer Class
• String Buffer creates the string of flexible length that can be modified in
terms content and length. We can insert characters and substrings in the
middle of the string are append another string at the end.
public class Private_AccessDemo
{ public static void main(String[] y)
{ StringBuffer s=new StringBuffer("yugandhar");//StringBuffer constructor
System.out.println("the String Buffer class");
s.setCharAt(6,'x');//methods of String Buffer class
System.out.println(s);
System.out.println("the append string::"+s.append(" programmer"));
s.setLength(40);// methods of String Buffer class
System.out.println("the set length ::"+s.length());
}
}

13. Command line arguments
• A command-line argument is the information that directly follows the
program’s name on the command line when it is excuted .
• All command line arguments are passed as strings
public static void main(String[] y)
{ System.out.println("the commandline arguments");
for(int i=0;i<y.length;i++)
System.out.println("the y["+i+"]::"+y[i]);
}
####output####
D:softwaresjava_programs>java Private_AccessDemo h e l l o w
the commandline arguments
the y[0]::h the y[1]::e the y[2]::l the y[3]::l the y[4]::o
the y[5]::w

14. Access Control
• encapsulation provides another important attribute: access control.
• Java’s access specifiers are public, private, and protected
• Public: A class, method, constructor, interface etc declared public can be
accessed from any other class. Therefore fields, methods, blocks declared
inside a public class can be accessed from any class
• private: Methods, Variables and Constructors that are declared private can
only be accessed within the declared class itself. Private access modifier is
the most restrictive access level. Class and interfaces cannot be private
• protect: Variables, methods and constructors which are declared protected
in a superclass can be accessed only by the subclasses in other package or
any class within the package of the protected members' class. The
protected access modifier cannot be applied to class and interfaces.
• Default: access modifier means we do not explicitly declare an access
modifier for a class, field, method, etc.A variable or method declared
without any access control modifier is available to any other class in the
same package.

15. Public access specifier
package demo_package;
import java.util.*;
public class AccessDemo
{ public void test()
{ System.out.println("Example of public access specifier"); }
protected int x=200;
}
D:softwaresjava_programs>javac -d . AccessDemo.java
import java.util.*;
import demo_package.AccessDemo;
public class Public_AccessDemo
{ public static void main(String[] y)
{ AccessDemo d=new AccessDemo();
d.test();
}
}
####output####
D:softwaresjava_programs>javac Public_AccessDemo.java
D:softwaresjava_programs>java Public_AccessDemo
Example of public access specifier

16. Private Access modifyer
class demo
{ private int x=20;
private void demo()
{ System.out.println("the value of x is::"+x);
}
void demo_1()
{ System.out.println("the demo_1 value of x is::"+x);
}
}
public class Private_AccessDemo
{ public static void main(String[] y)
{ demo d=new demo();
System.out.println("the value of x is"+d.x);
d.demo();
d.demo_1();
}
}
####output####
D:softwaresjava_programs>javac Private_AccessDemo.java
error: x has private access in demo
System.out.println("the value of x is"+d.x);
: error: demo() has private access in demo
d.demo()
making the d.demo_1() above two lines as comment then following out put will get
D:softwaresjava_programs>java Private_AccessDemo
the demo_1 value of x is::20

17. Protected access specifyer
import java.util.*;
import demo_package.AccessDemo;
class demo
{ protected int x=20;
protected void demo()
{ System.out.println("the value of x is::"+x); }
}
public class Private_AccessDemo extends AccessDemo
{ public static void main(String[] y)
{ demo d=new demo(); d.x=30;
System.out.println("the value of x is "+d.x); d.demo();
/*try with this code to know the difference with out extends AccessDemo
AccessDemo a=new AccessDemo();
System.out.println(a.x);
-*/
Private_AccessDemo a=new Private_AccessDemo();
System.out.println(a.x);
}
}
D:softwaresjava_programs>java Private_AccessDemo
the value of x is 30 the value of x is::30 200

18. Static
Variable declaration with Static
• When a variable is declared with the keyword “static”, its called a “class variable”.
• All instances share the same copy of the variable.
• A class variable can be accessed directly with the class, without the need to create a instance.
class static_
{ static String y="i am static variable";
String y1="hello_world";
}
public class Static_Demo
{ public static void main(String[] y)
{ System.out.println("accessing static variable::"+static_.y);
static_ s=new static_();
s.y="hello";
s.y1="H";
//static_.y="done";
System.out.println("accessing static variable::"+static_.y);
/*
* here y shares the same copy
*/
static_ s1=new static_();
System.out.println("accessing static variable::"+s1.y+"n the value of y1::"+s1.y1);
}
}

19. Method declaration with static
• It is a method which belongs to the class and not to the object(instance)
• A static method can access only static data. It can not access non-static
data (instance variables)
• A static method can call only other static methods and can not call a non-
static method from it.
• A static method can be accessed directly by the class name and doesn’t
need any object
• Syntax : <class-name>.<method-name>
• A static method cannot refer to “this” or “super” keywords in anyway

20. class static_
{ int x=10;
static void demo()
{ System.out.println("hellow static method");
// System.out.println("the value of x is"+x);
/*
* static methods can call only other static methods
* and other static variables only
*/
//demo_1();
demo_2();
}
void demo_1()
{ System.out.println("not static method demo_1()"); }
static void demo_2()
{ System.out.println(" static method demo_2()"); }
}//class
public class Static_Demo
{ static void demo_3()
{ System.out.println("the main methods static"); }
public static void main(String[] y)
{ System.out.println("static method");
static_.demo();
demo_3();
}
}
####output####
static method
hellow static method
static method demo_2()
the main methods static

21. Static block
• The static block, is a block of statement inside a Java class that will be executed when
a class is first loaded in to the JVM.
class static_
{ int x=10;
void demo()
{ System.out.println("hellow"); }
static{ System.out.println("secound static block");
}
static{ System.out.println("first static block");
}
}
public class Static_Demo
{ public static void main(String[] y)
{ static_ s=new static_();
s.demo();
}
}
####output####
secound static block
first static block
hellow

22. final keyword
• final is a reserved keyword in Java to restrict the user and it can be applied
to member variables, methods, class and local variables.
class Demo
{ final int INT_VARIABLE=120;
/**final variable value can not be chage */
public static void main(String[] y)
{ Demo d=new Demo();
d.INT_VARIABLE=45;
}
}
####output####
C:UsersYugandharDesktopjsp>javac Demo.java
Demo.java:8: error: cannot assign a value to final variable INT_VARIABLE
d.INT_VARIABLE=45;

23. Final method
• A final method cannot be overridden. Which means even though a sub
class can call the final method of parent class without any issues but it
cannot override it.
class Super
{ final void demo()
{ System.out.println("hello"); }
}
class Sub_ extends Super
{ /*void demo()
{
System.out.println("hello world");
}*/
void demo_1()
{ System.out.println("hello world"); }
}
class Demo
{ public static void main(String[] y)
{ Sub_ s=new Sub_();
s.demo();
}
}
try to remove those comments to understand
####output####
C:UsersYugandharDesktopjsp>javac Demo.java
Demo.java:11: error: demo() in Sub_ cannot override demo() in Super
C:UsersYugandharDesktopjsp>java Demo
hello

24. Final class
• We cannot extend a final class prevent inheritance
final class Super
{ void demo()
{ System.out.println("hello"); }
}
class Sub_ extends s
{ void demo_1()
{ System.out.println("hello world"); }
}
class Demo
{ public static void main(String[] y)
{ Sub_ s=new Sub_(); }
}
####output####
C:UsersYugandharDesktopjsp>javac Demo.java
Demo.java:9: error: cannot inherit from final Super
class Sub_ extends Super

25. Uses of final keyword
• Using final to define constants
• Using final to prevent inheritance
• Using final to prevent overriding
• Using final for method arguments
