Java programming concepts covered in the document include: - Declaring and assigning variables such as strings and integers - Incrementing and decrementing variable values using shortcuts like += and ++ - Using for and foreach loops to repeat actions - Defining getter and setter methods to access and change variable values - Creating and calling methods to organize code into reusable blocks - Using conditionals like if/else statements to check conditions - Storing and accessing values in data structures like arrays, arraylists, and hashmaps - Implementing event listeners to handle user interactions like mouse clicks - Defining a main method that kicks off the program execution

1. Java Language Notes
@LynnLangit

2. Create and Assign Variables
//the current zipcode is 90210
String zipcode = “90210”;

3. Increment Variables
int age = 15;
age += 1; //shortcut
age = age + 1;

4. Increment Variables again…
int age = 16;
age ++; //another shortcut

5. For Loops
for (int i = 1; i <= stop; i++)
{
//do something many times
}

6. Foreach Loops
for (Turtle turtle : turtles)
{
//do something to each one
}

7. To view a Value -- Getters
GetPenColor ( );
GetPenWidth ( );
GetSpeed ( );

8. To Change a Value -- Setters
SetPenColor (Colors.Reds.Red);
SetPenWidth ( 5 );
SetX ( 10 );

9. Methods are like Verbs
public static void doIt (String s )
{
//do something
}

10. Use a Method
String greeting = “hello”;
//say hello
sayIt ( greeting );

11. Main Method starts it all
public static void main (String[ ]
args)
{
//start by doing something
}

12. Constructor (Method)
public class Animals ( )
{
public Animals ( )
{
//create your Animals here
}
}

13. Conditionals - If
int test = 0;
if (test < 0)
{
//do something
}

14. Conditionals – If / Else
int test = 0;
if (test < 0)
{ //do something }
else
{ //do something else }

15. HashMaps
HashMap<Integer, Color> c =
new HashMap <Integer, Color>(
);
c.put(1,Colors.Reds.Red);
c.get(1);

16. Arrays
String words[ ] =
new String[ ] {“hi”,”Java”};
words.get[1]; //gets “Java”

17. More Arrays
//simpler set up – fixed length
int [ ] coins = {1,5,10,25,50};

18. ArrayList
ArrayList<String> words=
new ArrayList<String>( );
words.add(“Java”); //adds
“Java”
//adjustable length

19. Events and Listeners
public class DoIt implements MouseLeftClickListener
{
…
programWindow.addMouseLeftClickListener(this);
public void onLeftMouseClick(int x, int y)
{
//do something when clicked
}
}
