Course Overview

Lectures

Lecture Topic Lecture Slides Readings
Lecture 00 (Last Semester)
(1) Introduction: History of Java, Java Features, First Sample Program, Java Virtual Machine(JVM) Architecture.

(2) OOPs Principles: Object, Class, Encapsulation, Abstraction, Inheritance, Polymorphism.
(3) Data Types, Variables, Arrays, Operators, Control Statements: The Primitive Data Types(Integers, Floating-Point Types, Characters, Booleans). Variables and their scope and lifetime. Type Conversion and Casting. Arrays (One-dimensional Arrays, Multidimensional Arrays) declaration, initialization, and usage. Operators (Arithmetic, Increment and Decrement, The Bitwise Operators, Compound Assignments, Relational Operators, Ternary Operator, Operator Precedence). Control Statements (Selection Statements-if, switch, Interation Statements - for, while, and do-while. The Enhanced For Loop (For-Each Loop). Jump Statements (break, continue, return).
(4) Introducing Classes: Class Fundamentals, Declaring Objects, Introducing Methods, Constructors(Default, No-argument, Parameterized), The this keyword, Garbage Collection, The finalize( ) Method.

(5) A Closer Look at Methods and Classes: Overloading Methods, Automatic Type Conversions in Method Overloading. Overloading Constructors. Using Objects as Parameters. Copy Constructor. A Closer Look at Argument Passing(Call-by-Value, Call-by-Reference). Returning Objects. Recursion (Base Condition, Progressive Approach). Introducing Access Control (public, private, protected, default (package-private)). Understanding Static(static variable, methods, and blocks). Introducing Final. Nested and Inner Classes (how to define and use an inner class). Exploring the String Class. Using Command-Line Argument. Varargs: Variable-Length Arguments(self-study)

Exception Handling: Exception Handling Fundamentals(five keywords:try, catch, throw, throws, finally). Exception Types. Uncaught Exception.Using try and catch. Displaying a Description of an Exception. Multiple catch Clauses. Nested try Statements. throw. throws. throw vs. throws. finally. final vs. finally vs. finalize. Java’s Built-in Exceptions. Hierarchy of Java Exception Classes. Creating your own Exception Subclass
