Didnβt study Java all semester?
This guide will take you from zero β exam-ready β confident pass in a few days.
π― HOW TO USE THIS
- Day 1 β Unit 1
- Day 2 β Unit 2
- Day 3 β Unit 3
- Day 4 β Unit 4 + 5
- Day 5 β Revision
π Focus on VVI ββββ topics
π§ UNIT I β JAVA BASICS
β C++ vs Java (VVI ββββ)
Short Para:
Java is platform-independent and secure, while C++ is platform-dependent and faster but less secure.
| C++ | Java |
|---|---|
| Platform dependent | Platform independent |
| Uses pointers | No pointers |
| Manual memory | Automatic (Garbage Collection) |
β Java & Internet / WWW
Short Para:
Java is widely used for web development and works well with internet applications using browsers and servers.
β Java Environment
π Includes:
- JDK (Java Development Kit)
- JRE (Java Runtime Environment)
- JVM (Java Virtual Machine)
β JVM (VVI ββββ)
Short Para:
JVM is a virtual machine that runs Java bytecode and makes Java platform-independent.
β Java Program Structure
class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Hello");
}
}
β Tokens
π Smallest unit of Java:
- Keywords
- Identifiers
- Literals
- Operators
β Data Types
- int, float, char, boolean
β Variables & Constants
- Variable β value changes
- Constant β fixed value (
final)
β Type Casting
int a = (int) 10.5;
β Operators
- Arithmetic β + - *
- Relational β > <
- Logical β && ||
- Assignment β =
β Decision Making
if(x > 0) {
System.out.println("Positive");
}
β Loops (VVI ββββ)
for(int i=0; i<5; i++) {
System.out.println(i);
}
β Jump Statements
- break β exit loop
- continue β skip iteration
β Labeled Loop
outer:
for(int i=0;i<3;i++){
for(int j=0;j<3;j++){
break outer;
}
}
π§ UNIT II β OOP IN JAVA (MOST IMPORTANT)
β Class & Object (VVI ββββ)
Short Para:
Class is a blueprint, object is its instance.
class Student {
int age;
}
β Constructors
Student() {
System.out.println("Constructor");
}
β Method Overloading
Same method name, different parameters
β Static Members
Shared by all objects
β Inheritance (VVI ββββ)
class A {}
class B extends A {}
β Method Overriding
Child class modifies parent method
β Final Keyword
- final variable β constant
- final method β cannot override
- final class β cannot inherit
β Abstract Class
Cannot create object
β Visibility Control
- public
- private
- protected
π§ UNIT III β ARRAYS, INTERFACES, PACKAGES
β Arrays (VVI ββββ)
int arr[] = {1,2,3};
β 2D Array
int arr[][] = {{1,2},{3,4}};
β Strings
String s = "Java";
β Vector
Dynamic array
β Wrapper Classes
Convert primitive β object
Example: Integer, Double
β Interfaces (VVI ββββ)
interface A {
void show();
}
β Packages
Used to organize classes
π§ UNIT IV β THREADS
β Thread
Short Para:
Thread is a lightweight process used for multitasking.
β Creating Thread
class A extends Thread {
public void run() {
System.out.println("Thread");
}
}
β Life Cycle
- New
- Runnable
- Running
- Dead
β Synchronization
Used to control multiple threads
β Runnable Interface
Alternative way to create thread
π§ UNIT V β APPLETS
β Applet
Short Para:
Applet is a Java program that runs inside a web browser.
β Applet vs Application
| Applet | Application |
|---|---|
| Runs in browser | Runs standalone |
| Needs HTML | No HTML |
β Applet Life Cycle
- init()
- start()
- stop()
- destroy()
β Applet Tag
<applet code="Test.class" width="300" height="300"></applet>
β Passing Parameters
Using HTML tag
β Getting Input
Using UI elements
π₯ MUST PREPARE (HIGH SCORE)
- C++ vs Java ββββ
- JVM ββββ
- Loops ββββ
- Class & Object ββββ
- Inheritance ββββ
- Interfaces ββββ
- Arrays ββββ
- Threads ββββ
- Applet Life Cycle ββββ
π 5-DAY PLAN
