Philosophy

Computers do what you tell them to do, not what you want them to do.

Different results mean either the software, the system, or the data has changed

Reuse ideas, libraries, and code.Test and debug systematically with as much

information as possible.Programming is not art it is engineering. The

standards and process are essential to success.

Object Oriented

Consider an airport system in the real world. It consists of many different parts which work together to get work done Control tower, airplane, runways, fuel trucks, security

agent, …When we build a software systems, some of

the software objects have corresponding names Class ControlTower, class Airplane, class Runway, …

Reduces “representation gap” between software model and solution we are building Improves comprehension, communication, and

predictability

Object Oriented – Real World Object

Consider an airplane in the airport system. What is important?

Real world objects have information Airplanes have a model number, serial number, speed,

altitudeReal world objects also do things

Airplanes can land, take off, change speed, turn, …

Object Oriented – Software Object

Have names corresponding to the real world system Class Airplane

Store information – attributes modelNumber, serialNumber, speed, altitude

Perform actions – methods land(), takeOff(), changeSpeed(), turn()

Object Oriented – Software Object

An object bundles data (attributes) and code to perform actions (methods) into one, cohesive unitAirplan

espeedmodel

land()takeOff()

//Java source codeclass airplane{ private int speed; private int model; public void land() { … }

public void takeOff() { … }

Object Oriented – Project

Simple dice game Each player rolls two dice ten times The player rolling seven or more the most times is the

winner

Object Oriented – Project

Identify the real world objects in the game Game Player Die

Object Oriented – Project

Identify the attributes of each object in the game

Game dice players

Player name score

Die value

Object Oriented – Project

Identify the methods of each object in the game

Game play

Player takeTurn incrementScore getScore

Die roll

Object Oriented – Class and Instance

Class Definer: A blueprint

that stores the definition for instances

Creator: A factory for creating software objects of one kind

Instance Instantiated (created)

by a class Occupies space in

computer memory Retains values of

attributes Has behavior

An object bundles data (attributes) and code to perform actions (methods) into one, cohesive unit

Die

value

roll()die1:Dievalue=3

Java Syntax - Attributes

Java is strongly typed

Two basic types in Java Primitive – int, double, boolean, char, etc

private int value; Object – created from classes

private Die die1;

Variables– attributes which can change valuesConstants – attributes which do not change values

private final int SIDES = 6;

Java Syntax - Methods

Methods can perform actions, have parameters, and return values

Public void setName(String playerName){ name = playerName;}

public int roll(){ value = (int)(Math.random()*SIDES) + 1; return value;}

Java Syntax – Control Structures - Conditional

If statements handle boolean (true or false) conditions

if (i == 3) doSomething();

if (i == 2) doSomething(); else doSomethingElse();

if (i == 3) { doSomething(); } else if (i == 2) { doSomethingElse(); } else { doSomethingDifferent();}

Java Syntax – Control Structures - loops

Loops repeat a segment of code

// validate a boolean condition then executewhile (i < 10) { doSomething(); }

// execute then validate a boolean condition (always // run at least oncedo { doSomething(); } while (i < 10);

// execute a specific number of timesfor (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) { doSomething();}

Java Syntax – Project

public class Game {

private Player player1; private Player player2; private Die die1; private Die die2; private int score;

public void play() { for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) { score = die1.roll() + die2.roll(); if (score > 7) { player1.incrementScore(); } }

for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) { score = die1.roll() + die2.roll(); if (score > 7) { player2.incrementScore(); } }

if (player1.getScore() > player2.getScore()) { System.out.print("Player 1 wins"); } else { System.out.print("Player 2 wins"); } }}

Java Syntax - Methods

Setters and Getters Setters are a public method to set the value of private

attributes Getters are a public method to get the value of private

attributes

PlayerPublic void setName(String playerName)Public String getName()Public void setScore(int playerScore)Public int getScore()

Object Oriented – Concepts

Cohesion – strongly related responsibilities of a software component

Encapsulation – hide information or details Attributes are private (only exposed to the class) Methods are public (exposed to the world)

Polymorphism – multiple methods with the same name which operate on different data print(file) print(integer)

Inheritance – a generalization, specialization hierarchy. Extend or override functionality and data from a parent (super) class boy is a human is a mammal

Rolls

Dice Game Code - Die

public class Die { private final int SIDES = 6; int value;

public int getValue() { return value; }

public int roll() { value = (int)(Math.random()*SIDES) + 1; return value; }}

Dice Game Code - Player

public class Player { private String name; private int score = 0;

public void setName(String playerName) { name = playerName; } public String getName() { return name; } public int getScore() { return score; }

public void takeTurn(Die die1, Die die2) { int roll; score = 0; for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) { roll = die1.roll() + die2.roll(); if (roll > 7) { incrementScore(); } } } public void incrementScore() { score += 1; }}

Dice Game Code - Game

public class Game {

private static Player player1 = new Player(); private static Player player2 = new Player(); private static Die die1 = new Die(); private static Die die2 = new Die(); public static void play() { player1.takeTurn(die1, die2); player2.takeTurn(die1, die2);

if (player1.getScore() > player2.getScore()) { System.out.print("Player 1 wins " + player1.getScore() + " to " + player2.getScore()); } else if (player1.getScore() < player2.getScore()){ System.out.print("Player 2 wins " + player2.getScore() + " to " + player1.getScore()); } else { System.out.print("It's a tie " + player2.getScore() + " to " + player1.getScore()); } }}

Java Syntax – Control Structures - Conditional

Switch statements handle multiple cases

switch (ch) { case 'A': doSomething(); // Triggered if ch == 'A' break; case 'B': case 'C': doSomethingElse(); // Triggered if ch == 'B' or ch ==

'C' break; default: doSomethingDifferent(); // Triggered in any other case break; }

Java Syntax – Arrays

Arrays are an ordered collection A dozen eggs The passengers on an airplane

// one dimensional arrayint[] numbers = new int[5]; numbers[0] = 2; numbers[1] = 5; int x = numbers[0];

// multi dimensional arrayint[][] numbers = new int[3][3]; number[1][2] = 2;
