 Recap
Structure of Java Program:
class class-name {
public static void main(String args[]) {
statements;
}
}

Printing messages to the screen:

System.out.println(“Hello World”);
System.out.print(“Hello World”);

nlp-ai@cse.iitb
 Recap…
Data Types:
Numbers – int (whole no.s), double (no.s with decimal point)
eg. int i = 23;
double d = 33.23
Character – char
eg. char c = ‘a’;
String – String
eg. String s = “Hi”;
Boolean – boolean
eg. boolean b = false;
Variable declaration:
data-type variable-name
eg. int i = 23;
nlp-ai@cse.iitb
 Recap…
Expression:
An expression is a combination of literals (like 100), operators
(like +), variables and parentheses used to calculate a value.
eg. 2 + 6 / (2 – 9)
Operators:
Arithmetic –
eg. ‘-’, ‘+’, ‘/’, ‘++’ etc.
Relational –
eg. ‘<’, ‘>=’, ‘!=’ etc.
Conditional –
eg. ‘&&’ (AND), ‘||’ (OR)
Control constructs like‘if’ and ‘if else’:

 Assignment

Write a program that averages the synsets

created for three months April, May and
June. Declare and initialize variable to
the synset entered for each month.
Compute the average and write out the
results, something like this:
Synsets Entered for April: 12
Synsets Entered for May : 14
Synsets Entered for June: 8
Average Synset Entered: 11.333333

nlp-ai@cse.iitb
 Solution
class synset {
public static void main(String args[]) {
int april = 12;
int may = 14;
int june = 8;
double avg;
avg = ( april + may + june ) / 3.0;
System.out.println("Synsets Entered for April " + april);
System.out.println("Synsets Entered for May " + may);
System.out.println("Synsets Entered for June " + june);
System.out.println("Average Synset Entered " + avg);
}
}

 Assignment

int a_number=1; (range is 1 to 5 both including)

Print the value in a_number in word with and without using
equality (= =) operator. For example it should print “Four” if
a_number contains 4.

nlp-ai@cse.iitb
 Solution
class assign1 {
public static void main(String args[]) {
int a_number;
a_number = 5;
if(a_number == 1) System.out.println("One");
if(a_number == 2) System.out.println("Two");
if(a_number == 3) System.out.println("Three");
if(a_number == 4) System.out.println("Four");
if(a_number == 5) System.out.println("Five");
}
}

 Arrays

Definition:
An array is a group/collection of variables of the same type
that are referred to by a common name and an index

Examples:
• Collection of numbers
• Collection of names
• Collection of suffixes

nlp-ai@cse.iitb
 Examples

Array of numbers:

10 23 863 8 229

Array of names:

Sholay Shaan Shakti

Array of suffixes:

ment tion ness ves

nlp-ai@cse.iitb
 Analogy
Array is like a pen box with fixed no. of slots of same size.
