Summary of "Java Full Course for free ☕ (2025)"
1. Introduction to Java
- Setup requirements:
- Install JDK (Java Development Kit) from Oracle.
- Install an IDE (IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition recommended).
- Create a new Java project and main class.
- Write and run your first Java program with a
main
method. - Use
System.out.print
andSystem.out.println
for console output. - Use comments (
//
for single line,/* */
for multi-line). - IntelliJ shortcuts (e.g.,
sout
+ Tab for print statement).
2. Variables and Data Types
- Variables are containers for values.
- Primitive data types:
int
(whole numbers)double
(decimal numbers)char
(single characters, enclosed in single quotes)boolean
(true or false)
- Reference data types:
String
(sequence of characters, enclosed in double quotes)
- Declaration and assignment explained.
- Naming conventions: camelCase.
- String concatenation with
+
. - Boolean usage and simple if-statement example.
3. User Input with Scanner
- Import
java.util.Scanner
. - Create a Scanner object to read input from the console.
- Methods:
nextLine()
for strings with spaces.next()
for strings without spaces.nextInt()
for integers.nextDouble()
for doubles.nextBoolean()
for booleans.
- Handle input buffer issues (clearing new line after numeric input).
- Exercises:
- Calculate area of rectangle with user input.
- Mad Libs game using multiple user inputs.
4. Operators and Expressions
- Arithmetic operators:
+
,-
,*
,/
,%
(modulus). - Augmented assignment operators:
+=
,-=
,*=
,/=
,%=
for shorthand. - Increment (
++
) and decrement (--
) operators. - Order of operations (PEMDAS).
- Example: simple shopping cart program using user input and arithmetic.
5. Control Flow: If Statements
- Basic
if
,else if
,else
constructs. - Comparison operators:
==
,!=
,<
,>
,<=
,>=
. - Logical operators:
&&
(and),||
(or),!
(not). - Nested if statements.
- Using booleans in conditions.
- Example: age categorization, student status, name input validation.
6. Random Numbers
- Import
java.util.Random
. - Create Random object.
- Generate Random integers within bounds (
nextInt(bound)
). - Generate Random doubles (
nextDouble()
). - Generate Random booleans (
nextBoolean()
). - Example: dice roll simulation.
7. Math Class Utilities
- Constants:
Math.PI
,Math.E
. - Methods:
Math.pow()
,Math.abs()
,Math.sqrt()
Math.round()
,Math.ceil()
,Math.floor()
Math.max()
,Math.min()
- Exercises:
- Calculate hypotenuse of a right triangle.
- Calculate circumference, area, and volume of circle/sphere.
- Introduction to
printf
formatting for output precision.
8. printf
Statement and Formatting
- Format specifiers:
%s
for strings%c
for characters%d
for integers%f
for floating-point numbers%b
for booleans
- Precision and width formatting (e.g.,
%.2f
for 2 decimal places). - Flags for padding, signs, and alignment.
- Examples with various data types and formatted output.
9. Projects
- Compound Interest Calculator: user inputs principal, rate, times compounded, years; calculates final amount.
- Shopping Cart: user inputs item, price, quantity; calculates total.
- Mad Libs Game: user inputs adjectives, nouns, verbs to fill in a silly story.
- Dice Rolling Simulator: user inputs number of dice; outputs dice rolls with ASCII art.
- Number Guessing Game: Random number generated; user guesses until correct; counts attempts.
- Rock Paper Scissors Game: user vs computer with input validation and replay option.
- Slot Machine Game: user bets, Random emojis generated, payout calculated.
- Banking Program: deposit, withdraw, show balance with input validation.
- Temperature and Weight Conversion Programs using ternary operators.
- Calculator Program using enhanced switch statements.
- Hangman Game: user guesses letters, ASCII hangman displayed.
