Syntax

Main article: Java syntax

Dependency graph of the Java Core classes (created with jdeps and Gephi)
The syntax of Java is largely influenced by C++ and C. Unlike C++, which combines
the syntax for structured, generic, and object-oriented programming, Java was built
almost exclusively as an object-oriented language.[18] All code is written inside
classes, and every data item is an object, with the exception of the primitive data
types, (i.e. integers, floating-point numbers, boolean values, and characters),
which are not objects for performance reasons. Java reuses some popular aspects of
C++ (such as the printf method).

Unlike C++, Java does not support operator overloading[55] or multiple inheritance
for classes, though multiple inheritance is supported for interfaces.[56]

Early November, the Ranking Digital Rights (RDR) project launched its corporate
accountability index, a ranking of 16 of the world�s most powerful
telecommunications and internet companies on their commitments and policies that
affect users� free speech and privacy rights. Orange, MTN, Vodafone and Etisalat,
which all have operations in the Arab region, are included in the ranking. The most
popular internet companies such as Google, Twitter and Facebook are also there.

Violation of user rights in the Arab region is often uniquely blamed on repressive
governments that extensively filter the internet, spy on their citizens, and
prosecute them for merely expressing themselves online.

Over the past few years, however, activists and human rights groups have been
drawing attention to the complicity of companies, either foreign or national, in
violating the rights of users based in the region. Some of these companies, based
in Western Europe or North America, sell internet filtering and surveillance
technologies to governments which use them to crack down on speech and political
dissent.

For instance, several Arab governments including those of Bahrain, Saudi Arabia,
Egypt, Sudan, Morocco and the UAE, purchased the Milan-based Hacking Team�s �Remote
Control System� intrusion software, as was revealed when the company was hacked and
its documents leaked last July. In October, the Toronto-based Citizen Lab released
a report confirming that filtering products by the Canadian company Netsweeper are
being used to filter critical political content in Yemen.

It is not only companies selling spying and filtering technologies that threaten
the rights of users. The practices and policies of internet and telecommunications
companies can put their users� at risk of rights violations. This is what RDR�s
newly released index sheds light on.

RDR assessed the companies according to their publicly disclosed policies, and not
their practices, in three categories: commitment, freedom of expression, and
privacy. For each category, the indicators draw on guidelines established in
international human rights frameworks, including the United Nations Guiding
Principles on Business and Human Rights.

In the ranking, internet companies fare better than the telecommunications

companies. The highest ranked Internet company, Google, obtained a score of 65%,
while the highest ranked telecom company, Vodafone, obtained 54%. In the Internet
companies� ranking, four obtained at least a total score of 50%, while only two
telecom companies obtained a score of 50 and above.

RDR, however, notes that �there are no winners� and that �even companies in the
lead are falling short�, particularly when it comes to disclosing how they handle
user information and enforce terms of service, and the lack of transparency when
it comes to requests for content takedown and user data.

How do companies violate our rights?

RDR explains how companies like Internet Service Providers (ISPs), social
networking sites, and cell phones carriers violate user rights: �people
increasingly depend on Internet and telecommunications services for many facets of
their daily lives, including civic, political, and religious activities. The
services these companies offer connect and empower people in unprecedented ways,
but they can also be misused to undermine freedom of expression and privacy�.

Companies take a number of decisions that could affect user rights including:

� handing over user data at the request of governments, law enforcement agencies or
courts.
� taking down content at the request of governments for violating local laws.
� taking down content or banning users from using their services for violating
their terms of service. (Last August, for instance, Facebook removed a photo album
shared by a Syrian artist showing drowned Syrian and Palestinian refugees off the
coast of Libya after a number of users reported it for violating the company�s
terms of service )
� shutting down networks and services at the requests of governments

There are of course legitimate reasons for which companies need to take similar
decisions such as incitement to violence, hate speech, cyber-bullying or security
concerns. Repressive governments, however, have other less legitimate reasons, such
as requesting the data of an anonymous blogger who has been critical of the
authorities, or shutting down communications during protests.

Though several governments in the Arab region advocate for a universal access to
internet and mobile phones (the number of internet users in the region is expected
to hit 197 million by 2017, a penetration of 51%), they are wary of online
criticism and dissent, particularly following the so-called Arab Spring protests,
during which protesters across the region made use of these technologies to
document police violence and organize.

Etisalat gets lowest score in telecommunications companies ranking

With a 14% score, the UAE�s Etisalat received the lowest score for
telecommunications companies. In the overall ranking, only Mail.ru, a Russian
company which provides communication and entertainment services online, scored
worse than Etisalat with 13%.

In fact, Etisalat discloses little to no information about its public policies and
practices affecting its users� free speech and privacy rights. Out of six
indicators in the commitment category, Etisalat only received credit for disclosing
processes to receive complaints and grievances from its users (indicator C6). The
company, however, fails to get credit for the five remaining indicators, including
conducting human rights impact assessments (C4) and engaging with a multi
stakeholder initiative promoting freedom of expression and privacy (C5) such as the
Global Network Initiative.
Etisalat has the lowest score of any telecommunications company in the Privacy
category along with MTN, a South African multinational mobile telecommunications
company, which also has operations inside Sudan, Syria and Yemen. Though Etisalat
makes its privacy policies freely available (P1), and provides some information
into what user information it collects and shares, and why (P3 and P4), it does not
say whether it notifies users about third party requests for their information
(P10) or how long it retains user information (P17), nor publishes data about
requests for user information (P11).

Etisalat fares better in the freedom of expression category by making its terms of
service available (F1), committing to notify its users about changes to these
services (F2), and disclosing information about the circumstances under which it
restricts content or access to its services (F3 and F4). Out of a total of 10
indicators in the freedom of expression category, the company gets zero credit for
five indicators. Etisalat fails to reveal information about its process for
responding to requests from governments and other parties to restrict content (F6),
and does not publish data about such requests (F7). In addition, the company does
not reveal whether or not it prioritizes the delivery of certain types of content
over other, aka net neutrality (F10).

What about foreign companies?

Etisalat is not unique in its lack of public commitments to freedom of expression

and privacy in the Arab region, where even private and foreign companies do not
disclose enough information about their policies.

European companies behave differently in their countries of headquarters from

countries where the regulatory environment is restrictive and does not provide
legal protections for user rights.

Take for example the French multinational telecommunications group Orange which has
operations in Egypt, Jordan and Tunisia. In the telecommunications ranking, Orange
came third with a total score of 37 out of 100 after AT&T and Vodafone which
respectively obtained 50 and 54. Though in France, Orange makes its terms of
service available for each of its services on orange.fr, in Tunisia the terms and
conditions are nowhere to be found on orange.tn.

In 2011, Vodafone came under criticism in Egypt when it shut down its network there
during the protests against former president Hosni Mubarak, at the request of the
government. For 24 hours its customers were unable to make phone calls or use the
internet. Although Vodafone said that it was obliged to do so under local Egyptian
law, this case clearly shows how companies favor business interests over human
rights in countries where customers enjoy little to no protections.

It�s about regulation:

RDR notes that the legal and regulatory framework context in which Etisalat
operates �presents challenges for the company to achieve a higher score in the
Index�. The 2015 Freedom on the Net report states that the �UAE maintains an
authoritarian grip on both politics and telecommunications�. In fact, the state has
dominant ownerships in the country�s two telecommunication service providers,
including a 60% stake in Etisalat.

As long as regulation in the region is about controlling users and not protecting
them, it will be challenging for companies to improve their policies and practices.

In Bahrain, for instance, the Telecommunication Regulatory Authority has the power
to revoke the licenses of ISPs if they do not abide by blocking orders from the
government. In Egypt, the telecom industry regulator (NTRA) has been accused of
monitoring social media.

Despite the restrictive regulatory frameworks, there are steps that telcos could
take to further the protection of user rights, including making their terms of
service available in an easy to understand language, disclosing sites and content
they block access to, and revealing how they handle user information (what
information they collect, with which parties they share, and for what purposes and
for how long they retain it). In the RDR ranking, companies also get scored for
informing and educating users about cyberthreats (P14), and for deploying the
latest encryption and security standards (P12), two practices even companies in the
most restrictive environments should be capable of adopting.

For social media companies, regulation can be a bit tricky because of the
borderless nature of the Internet. Though it is understandable for companies to
respect the local legislation of countries inside which they operate, this does not
mean that they should not assess the risks that come with opening an office in a
restrictive environment. When Twitter launched its office in Dubai, a spokesperson
for the company said: �We do not make special arrangements with governments
regarding censorship�, in response to an inquiry from BuzzFeed News about the
agreements Twitter made with the government in order to be able to operate inside
the UAE.

In addition, Internet companies take down content at the request of courts or

government agencies for violating local laws. For instance, during the first half
of 2014, Facebook restricted seven pieces of content inside Saudi Arabia for
violating local laws that prohibit criticism of the royal family. This is a policy
that Facebook and other new media companies need to review, because legislation
under undemocratic regimes does not usually enshrine free speech protections in
accordance with international human rights standards.

The role of civil society

Despite the restrictions placed on civil society in several countries in the

region, groups

and activists working to advance digital rights protections can still do much. They
can use the RDR ranking in their advocacy work, or if possible conduct a similar
study focusing on ISPs and telcos operating inside the region. They can also raise
awareness and educate users about companies� practices and policies in order to
allow users to make informed choices and know which rights they give away when they
agree to the terms and conditions.

And in countries where civil society is not grappling with draconian restrictions
such as Lebanon and Tunisia, organizations and activists should lobby the
government and legislators to improve laws regulating the telecom industry, in a
way that they respect user rights.

Java uses comments similar to those of C++. There are three different styles of
comments: a single line style marked with two slashes (//), a multiple line style
opened with /* and closed with */, and the Javadoc commenting style opened with /**
and closed with */. The Javadoc style of commenting allows the user to run the
Javadoc executable to create documentation for the program and can be read by some
integrated development environments (IDEs) such as Eclipse to allow developers to
access documentation within the IDE.

We are providing learning materials for students of class 6 to 12 based on the

syllabus. In these classes, students set their foot into the world of all the
important theories in Maths, like whole numbers, basic geometry, integers,
decimals, algebra, ratio and proportion, etc. Since kids are more receptive to
learning, when it is associated more with play than with work, it is a good idea

Basic Maths
The basics of Mathematics deals with simple arithmetic operations, which are:

Addition (+)
Subtraction (-)
Multiplication (x)
Division (�)
To become expert in these basic concepts students need to practice questions and
solve worksheets based on them. There will few more basics such as multiples,
factors, HCF and LCM, which will be introduced to the students in their secondary
classes.

Multiplication tables are also one of the fundamentals of Maths. Students will have
to learn tables from 1 to 10 in their primary school to solve multiplication
problems.

Hii nice class we understand easily and good keep it up

Hello world example

The traditional Hello world program can be written in Java as:[57]

public class HelloWorldApp {

public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Hello World!"); // Prints the string to the console.
}
}
All source files must be named after the public class they contain, appending the
suffix .java, for example, HelloWorldApp.java. It must first be compiled into
bytecode, using a Java compiler, producing a file with the .class suffix
(HelloWorldApp.class, in this case). Only then can it be executed or launched. The
Java source file may only contain one public class, but it can contain multiple
classes with a non-public access modifier and any number of public inner classes.
When the source file contains multiple classes, it is necessary to make one class
(introduced by the class keyword) public (preceded by the public keyword) and name
the source file with that public class name.

A class that is not declared public may be stored in any .java file. The compiler
will generate a class file for each class defined in the source file. The name of
the class file is the name of the class, with .class appended. For class file
generation, anonymous classes are treated as if their name were the concatenation
of the name of their enclosing class, a $, and an integer.
The keyword public denotes that a method can be called from code in other classes,
or that a class may be used by classes outside the class hierarchy. The class
hierarchy is related to the name of the directory in which the .java file is
located. This is called an access level modifier. Other access level modifiers
include the keywords private (a method that can only be accessed in the same class)
and protected (which allows code from the same package to access). If a piece of
code attempts to access private methods or protected methods, the JVM will throw a
SecurityException

The keyword static[19] in front of a method indicates a static method, which is

associated only with the class and not with any specific instance of that class.
Only static methods can be invoked without a reference to an object. Static methods
cannot access any class members that are not also static. Methods that are not
designated static are instance methods and require a specific instance of a class
to operate.

The keyword void indicates that the main method does not return any value to the
caller. If a Java program is to exit with an error code, it must call System.exit()
explicitly.

The method name main is not a keyword in the Java language. It is simply the name
of the method the Java launcher calls to pass control to the program. Java classes
that run in managed environments such as applets and Enterprise JavaBeans do not
use or need a main() method. A Java program may contain multiple classes that have
main methods, which means that the VM needs to be explicitly told which class to
launch from.

The main method must accept an array of String objects. By convention, it is

referenced as args although any other legal identifier name can be used. Since Java
5, the main method can also use variable arguments, in the form of public static
void main(String... args), allowing the main method to be invoked with an arbitrary
number of String arguments. The effect of this alternate declaration is
semantically identical (to the args parameter which is still an array of String
objects), but it allows an alternative syntax for creating and passing the array.

The Java launcher launches Java by loading a given class (specified on the command
line or as an attribute in a JAR) and starting its public static void
main(String[]) method. Stand-alone programs must declare this method explicitly.
The String[] args parameter is an array of String objects containing any arguments
passed to the class. The parameters to main are often passed by means of a command
line.

Printing is part of a Java standard library: The System class defines a public
static field called out. The out object is an instance of the PrintStream class and
provides many methods for printing data to standard out, including println(String)
which also appends a new line to the passed string.

The string "Hello World!" is automatically converted to a String object by the

compiler.

Example with methods

// This is an example of a single line comment using two slashes

/*
* This is an example of a multiple line comment using the slash and asterisk.
* This type of comment can be used to hold a lot of information or deactivate
* code, but it is very important to remember to close the comment.
*/
package fibsandlies;

import java.util.Map;
import java.util.HashMap;

/**
* This is an example of a Javadoc comment; Javadoc can compile documentation
* from this text. Javadoc comments must immediately precede the class, method,
* or field being documented.
* @author Wikipedia Volunteers
*/
public class FibCalculator extends Fibonacci implements Calculator {
private static Map<Integer, Integer> memoized = new HashMap<>();

/*
* The main method written as follows is used by the JVM as a starting point
* for the program.
*/
public static void main(String[] args) {
memoized.put(1, 1);
memoized.put(2, 1);
System.out.println(fibonacci(12)); // Get the 12th Fibonacci number and
print to console
}

/**

* Given a non-negative number FIBINDEX, returns
* the Nth Fibonacci number, where N equals FIBINDEX.
*
* @param fibIndex The index of the Fibonacci number
* @return the Fibonacci number
*/
public static int fibonacci(int fibIndex) {
if (memoized.containsKey(fibIndex)) return memoized.get(fibIndex);
else {
int answer = fibonacci(fibIndex - 1) + fibonacci(fibIndex - 2);
memoized.put(fibIndex, answer);
return answer;
}

Applet
Main article: Java applet
Java applets were programs that were embedded in other applications, typically in a
Web page displayed in a web browser. The Java applet API is now deprecated since
Java 8 in 2017.[58][59]

Servlet
Main article: Java servlet
Java servlet technology provides Web developers with a simple, consistent mechanism
for extending the functionality of a Web server and for accessing existing business
systems. Servlets are server-side Java EE components that generate responses to
requests from clients. Most of the time, this means generating HTML pages in
response to HTTP requests, although there are a number of other standard servlet
classes available, for example for WebSocket communication.

The Java servlet API has to some extent been superseded (but still used under the
hood) by two standard Java technologies for web services:

the Java API for RESTful Web Services (JAX-RS 2.0) useful for AJAX, JSON and REST
services, and
the Java API for XML Web Services (JAX-WS) useful for SOAP Web Services.
Typical implementations of these APIs on Application Servers or Servlet Containers
use a standard servlet for handling all interactions with the HTTP requests and
responses that delegate to the web service methods for the actual business logic.

JavaServer Pages
Main article: JavaServer Pages
JavaServer Pages (JSP) are server-side Java EE components that generate responses,
typically HTML pages, to HTTP requests from clients. JSPs embed Java code in an
HTML page by using the special delimiters <% and %>. A JSP is compiled to a Java
servlet, a Java application in its own right, the first time it is accessed. After
that, the generated servlet creates the response.[60]

Swing application
Main article: Swing (Java)
Swing is a graphical user interface library for the Java SE platform. It is
possible to specify a different look and feel through the pluggable look and feel
system of Swing. Clones of Windows, GTK+, and Motif are supplied by Sun. Apple also
provides an Aqua look and feel for macOS. Where prior implementations of these
looks and feels may have been considered lacking, Swing in Java SE 6 addresses this
problem by using more native GUI widget drawing routines of the underlying
platforms.[61]

JavaFX application
Main article: JavaFX
JavaFX is a software platform for creating and delivering desktop applications, as
well as rich Internet applications (RIAs) that can run across a wide variety of
devices. JavaFX is intended to replace Swing as the standard GUI library for Java
SE, but both will be included for the foreseeable future. JavaFX has support for
desktop computers and web browsers on Microsoft Windows, Linux, and macOS. JavaFX
does not have support for native OS look and feels.[62]

Generics
Main article: Generics in Java
In 2004, generics were added to the Java language, as part of J2SE 5.0. Prior to
the introduction of generics, each variable declaration had to be of a specific
type. For container classes, for example, this is a problem because there is no
easy way to create a container that accepts only specific types of objects. Either
the container operates on all subtypes of a class or interface, usually Object, or
a different container class has to be created for each contained class. Generics
allow compile-time type checking without having to create many container classes,
each containing almost identical code. In addition to enabling more efficient code,
certain runtime exceptions are prevented from occurring, by issuing compile-time
errors. If Java prevented all runtime type errors (ClassCastExceptions) from
occurring, it would be type safe.

In 2016, the type system of Java was proven unsound.[63]

Criticism
Main article: Criticism of Java
Criticisms directed at Java include the implementation of generics,[64] speed,[65]
the handling of unsigned numbers,[66] the implementation of floating-point
arithmetic,[67] and a history of security vulnerabilities in the primary Java VM
implementation HotSpot.[68]

Class libraries
Main article: Java Class Library
The Java Class Library is the standard library, developed to support application
development in Java. It is controlled by Oracle in cooperation with others through
the Java Community Process program.[69] Companies or individuals participating in
this process can influence the design and development of the APIs. This process has
been a subject of controversy during the 2010s.[70] The class library contains
features such as:

The core libraries, which include:

IO/NIO
Networking (NOTE: new HTTP Client since Java 11)
Reflection
Concurrency
Generics
Scripting/Compiler
Functional programming (Lambda, Streaming)
Collection libraries that implement data structures such as lists, dictionaries,
trees, sets, queues and double-ended queue, or stacks[71]
XML Processing (Parsing, Transforming, Validating) libraries
Security[72]
Internationalization and localization libraries[73]
The integration libraries, which allow the application writer to communicate with
external systems. These libraries include:
The Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) API for database access
Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI) for lookup and discovery
RMI and CORBA for distributed application development
JMX for managing and monitoring applications
User interface libraries, which include:
The (heavyweight, or native) Abstract Window Toolkit (AWT), which provides GUI
components, the means for laying out those components and the means for handling
events from those components
The (lightweight) Swing libraries, which are built on AWT but provide (non-native)
implementations of the AWT widgetry
APIs for audio capture, processing, and playback
JavaFX
A platform dependent implementation of the Java virtual machine that is the means
by which the bytecodes of the Java libraries and third party applications are
executed
Plugins, which enable applets to be run in web browsers
Java Web Start, which allows Java applications to be efficiently distributed to end
users across the Internet
Licensing and documentation
Documentation
Main article: Javadoc
Javadoc is a comprehensive documentation system, created by Sun Microsystems. It
provides developers with an organized system for documenting their code. Javadoc
comments have an extra asterisk at the beginning, i.e. the delimiters are /** and
*/, whereas the normal multi-line comments in Java are set off with the
delimiters /* and */, and single-line comments start off the line with //.[74]

Implementations
See also: Free Java implementations
Oracle Corporation is the current owner of the official implementation of the Java
SE platform, following their acquisition of Sun Microsystems on January 27, 2010.
This implementation is based on the original implementation of Java by Sun. The
Oracle implementation is available for Microsoft Windows (still works for XP, while
only later versions are currently officially supported), macOS, Linux, and Solaris.
Because Java lacks any formal standardization recognized by Ecma International,
ISO/IEC, ANSI, or other third-party standards organizations, the Oracle
implementation is the de facto standard.

The Oracle implementation is packaged into two different distributions: The Java
Runtime Environment (JRE) which contains the parts of the Java SE platform required
to run Java programs and is intended for end users, and the Java Development Kit
(JDK), which is intended for software developers and includes development tools
such as the Java compiler, Javadoc, Jar, and a debugger. Oracle has also released
GraalVM, a high performance Java dynamic compiler and interpreter.

OpenJDK is another notable Java SE implementation that is licensed under the GNU
GPL. The implementation started when Sun began releasing the Java source code under
the GPL. As of Java SE 7, OpenJDK is the official Java reference implementation.

The goal of Java is to make all implementations of Java compatible. Historically,

Sun's trademark license for usage of the Java brand insists that all
implementations be compatible. This resulted in a legal dispute with Microsoft
after Sun claimed that the Microsoft implementation did not support RMI or JNI and
had added platform-specific features of their own. Sun sued in 1997, and, in 2001,
won a settlement of US$20 million, as well as a court order enforcing the terms of
the license from Sun.[75] As a result, Microsoft no longer ships Java with Windows.

Platform-independent Java is essential to Java EE, and an even more rigorous

validation is required to certify an implementation. This environment enables
portable server-side applications.

Use outside the Java platform

The Java programming language requires the presence of a software platform in order
for compiled programs to be executed.

Oracle supplies the Java platform for use with Java. The Android SDK is an
alternative software platform, used primarily for developing Android applications
with its own GUI system.

Android

The Android operating system makes extensive use of Java-related technology

The Java language is a key pillar in Android, an open source mobile operating
system. Although Android, built on the Linux kernel, is written largely in C, the
Android SDK uses the Java language as the basis for Android applications but does
not use any of its standard GUI, SE, ME or other established Java standards.[76]
The bytecode language supported by the Android SDK is incompatible with Java
bytecode and runs on its own virtual machine, optimized for low-memory devices such
as smartphones and tablet computers. Depending on the Android version, the bytecode
is either interpreted by the Dalvik virtual machine or compiled into native code by
the Android Runtime.

Android does not provide the full Java SE standard library, although the Android
SDK does include an independent implementation of a large subset of it. It supports
Java 6 and some Java 7 features, offering an implementation compatible with the
standard library (Apache Harmony).

Controversy
See also: Oracle America, Inc. v. Google, Inc.
The use of Java-related technology in Android led to a legal dispute between Oracle
and Google. On May 7, 2012, a San Francisco jury found that if APIs could be
copyrighted, then Google had infringed Oracle's copyrights by the use of Java in
Android devices.[77] District Judge William Haskell Alsup ruled on May 31, 2012,
that APIs cannot be copyrighted,[78] but this was reversed by the United States
Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in May 2014.[79] On May 26, 2016, the
district court decided in favor of Google, ruling the copyright infringement of the
Java API in Android constitutes fair use.[80] In March 2018, this ruling was
overturned by the Appeals Court, which sent down the case of determining the
damages to federal court in San Francisco.[81] Google filed a petition for writ of
certiorari with the Supreme Court of the United States in January 2019 to challenge
the two rulings that were made by the Appeals Court towards Oracle's favor.[82]
