Java Basics

This section covers fundamental Java concepts that form the building blocks for writing Java programs.

1. **Keywords and Identifiers**

- Keywords are reserved words with predefined meanings in Java (e.g., `class`, `public`, `static`, `int`, `if`,

`else`).

- Identifiers are names given to classes, methods, variables, etc. They must begin with a letter, underscore

(_) or dollar sign ($).

2. **Data Types and Variables**

- Data types define the type of data a variable can hold.

-> Primitive: byte, short, int, long, float, double, char, boolean

-> Non-primitive: String, Arrays, Classes

- Variables store data values. Syntax: `int age = 25;`

3. **Operators**

- Java supports various operators:

-> Arithmetic: +, -, *, /, %

-> Relational: ==, !=, >, <, >=, <=

-> Logical: &&, ||, !

-> Assignment: =, +=, -=, *=, /=

-> Unary: ++, --

-> Ternary: condition ? expr1 : expr2

4. **Type Casting**

- Converting one data type to another.

-> Implicit (widening): int to long

-> Explicit (narrowing): double to int

Example: `int a = (int) 3.14;`

5. **Input and Output**

- `[Link]()` is used to print output to the console.

- To take input, use the Scanner class:

import [Link];

Scanner sc = new Scanner([Link]);

int num = [Link]();

6. **Comments in Java**

- Single-line: `// This is a single-line comment`

- Multi-line: `/* This is a

multi-line comment */`

- Used for documentation and making code more understandable.
