Java Diploma Short Notes

JAVA LAB MANUAL – SHORT NOTES FOR DIPLOMA EXAM

WEEK 1 – Java Installation & First Program


• Install Java JDK and Eclipse IDE
• Create Java Project → Create Class → Run Program
• Java file (.java) → Bytecode (.class) → JVM → Machine Code
• WORA = Write Once Run Anywhere

WEEK 2 – Variables & Datatypes


Primitive Datatypes:
int, float, double, char, byte, short, boolean, long

Increment Operators:
i++ = Post Increment
++i = Pre Increment

Boxing: Primitive → Wrapper


Unboxing: Wrapper → Primitive

WEEK 3 – Constructors
Constructor initializes object.
Types:
1. Default Constructor
2. Parameterized Constructor

Features:
• Same name as class
• No return type
• Called automatically

WEEK 4 – JVM Memory


JConsole monitors JVM memory.
JVM loads class files, verifies bytecode and converts to machine code.

WEEK 5 – Control Statements


Decision Making:
• if
• if-else
• else-if ladder
• switch

Loops:
• while
• do-while
• for
WEEK 6 – Encapsulation
Wrapping data and methods into single unit.

Advantages:
• Data hiding
• Security
• Easy testing

SRP:
Single Responsibility Principle means one class should perform one task.

WEEK 7 – Arrays & Strings


Array:
Collection of similar datatype elements.

Advantages:
• Fast access
• Code optimization

Disadvantage:
• Fixed size

String Methods:
length(), equals(), substring(), replace(), trim(), toUpperCase()

WEEK 8 – Inheritance
Inheritance means acquiring properties of parent class.

Types:
1. Single Inheritance
2. Multilevel Inheritance
3. Hierarchical Inheritance

Advantages:
• Code reuse
• Method overriding

WEEK 9 – Binding
Static Binding:
Compile-time binding.

Dynamic Binding:
Runtime binding using method overriding.

WEEK 10 – Abstraction
Abstraction hides implementation details.
Ways:
1. Abstract Class
2. Interface

WEEK 11 – Exception Handling


Exception = Runtime error.

Types:
1. Checked Exception
2. Unchecked Exception
3. Error

Advantages:
• Prevents crash
• Maintains normal flow

IMPORTANT VIVA QUESTIONS


1. Why Java is platform independent?
Because JVM executes bytecode on any OS.

2. Difference between constructor and method?


Constructor initializes object; method performs operation.

3. Difference between abstract class and interface?


Abstract class can contain normal methods; interface contains abstract methods.

4. Difference between while and do-while?


while checks condition first; do-while executes once first.

5. What is encapsulation?
Wrapping data and methods into one unit.
