yazmamız gerekiyor!

Geleneksel Prosedür Odaklı diller

Geleneksel prosedür odaklı programlama dilleri (C, Fortran, Cobol ve Pascal gibi)
yeniden kullanılabilir yazılım bileşenleri oluşturmada bazı önemli dezavantajlara
sahiptir :

1. Prosedür odaklı programlar işlevlerden oluşur. İşlevler daha az yeniden

kullanılabilir . Bir fonksiyonu bir programdan kopyalayıp başka bir programda
yeniden kullanmak çok zordur çünkü fonksiyonun genel değişkenlere ve diğer
fonksiyonlara referans vermesi muhtemeldir. Başka bir deyişle işlevler, kendi
kendine yeten, yeniden kullanılabilen bir birim olarak iyi bir şekilde
kapsüllenmemiştir .
2. Prosedürel diller, gerçek hayat problemlerini çözmek için üst düzey
soyutlamaya uygun değildir . Örneğin C programları, Müşteri İlişkileri Yönetimi
(CRM) sistemi veya bilgisayar futbolu oyunu gibi düşük seviyeli ve soyutlanması
zor gerçek problemler olan if-else, for-loop, dizi, yöntem, işaretçi gibi yapıları
kullanır.

Geleneksel prosedür dilleri veri yapılarını (değişkenleri) ve algoritmaları

(fonksiyonları) ayırır .

1970'lerin başında ABD Savunma Bakanlığı (DoD), BT bütçesinin neden her zaman kontrolden çıktığını araştırmak için bir çalışma
grubu görevlendirdi; ama gösterecek pek bir şey yok. Bulgular şunlardır:
1. Bütçenin %80'i yazılıma (geri kalan %20'si donanıma) gitti.
2. Yazılım bütçesinin %80'inden fazlası bakıma gitti (yalnızca kalan %20'si yeni yazılım geliştirmeye).
3. Donanım bileşenleri çeşitli ürünlere uygulanabiliyordu ve bunların bütünlüğü normalde diğer ürünleri etkilemiyordu.
(Donanım paylaşılabilir ve yeniden kullanılabilir! Donanım hataları izole edilir!)
4. Yazılım prosedürleri çoğunlukla paylaşılamaz ve yeniden kullanılamazdı. Yazılım hataları bilgisayarlarda çalışan diğer
programları etkileyebilir.

Görev gücü, yazılımın donanım OBJECT'i gibi davranmasını önerdi. Daha sonra DoD, daha sonra DoD sistemleri oluşturmak için
kullanılan 450'den fazla bilgisayar dilini Ada adı verilen nesne yönelimli bir dille değiştirir.

Nesneye Yönelik Programlama Dilleri

Nesne yönelimli programlama (OOP) dilleri bu
sorunların üstesinden gelmek için tasarlanmıştır.
1. The basic unit of OOP is a class, which
encapsulates both the static properties
and dynamic operations within a "box",
and specifies the public interface for using
these boxes. Since classes are well-
encapsulated, it is easier to reuse these
classes. In other words, OOP combines
the data structures and algorithms of a
software entity inside the same box.
2. OOP languages permit higher level of
abstraction for solving real-life problems.
The traditional procedural language (such
as C and Pascal) forces you to think in
terms of the structure of the computer
(e.g. memory bits and bytes, array,
decision, loop) rather than thinking in terms of the problem you are trying to solve. The OOP languages (such as Java, C++ and C#)
let you think in the problem space, and use software objects to represent and abstract entities of the problem space to solve the
problem.

As an example, suppose you wish to write a computer

soccer games (which I consider as a complex
application). It is quite difficult to model the game in
procedural-oriented languages. But using OOP
languages, you can easily model the program
accordingly to the "real things" appear in the soccer
games.
Player: attributes include name, number, x and y
location in the field, and etc; operations include
run, jump, kick-the-ball, and etc.
Ball: attributes include x, y, z position in the field,
radius, weight, etc.
Referee:
Field:
Audience:
Weather:

Most importantly, some of these classes (such as Ball and Audience) can be reused in another application, e.g., computer basketball
game, with little or no modification.

Benefits of OOP
The procedural-oriented languages focus on procedures, with function as the basic unit. You need to first figure out all the functions and
then think about how to represent data.

The object-oriented languages focus on components that the user perceives, with objects as the basic unit. You figure out all the objects
by putting all the data and operations that describe the user's interaction with the data.

27.09.2023 15:18 OOP Basics - Java Programming Tutorial

Object-Oriented technology has many benefits:

Ease in software design as you could think in the problem space rather than the machine's bits and bytes. You are dealing with high-
level concepts and abstractions. Ease in design leads to more productive software development.
Ease in software maintenance: object-oriented software are easier to understand, therefore easier to test, debug, and maintain.
Reusable software: you don't need to keep re-inventing the wheels and re-write the same functions for different situations. The fastest
and safest way of developing a new application is to reuse existing codes - fully tested and proven codes.

2. OOP in Java

2.1 Class & Instances

In Java, a class is a definition of objects of the same kind. In other words, a class is a blueprint, template, or prototype that defines and
describes the static attributes and dynamic behaviors common to all objects of the same kind.

An instance is a realization of a particular item of a class. In other words, an instance is an instantiation of a class. All the instances of a
class have similar properties, as described in the class definition. For example, you can define a class called "Student" and create three
instances of the class "Student" for "Alice", "Ah Beng" and "Ali".

The term "object" usually refers to instance. But it is often used loosely, and may refer to a class or an instance.

2.2 A Class is a 3-Compartment Box Encapsulating Data and Operations

A class can be visualized as a three-compartment box, as illustrated:

1. Name (or identity): identifies the class.

2. Variables (or attribute, state, field): contains the static attributes of the class.
3. Methods (or behaviors, function, operation): contains the dynamic behaviors of the class.

In other words, a class encapsulates the static attributes (data) and dynamic behaviors
(operations that operate on the data) in a box.

The followings figure shows a few examples of classes:

The following figure shows two instances of the class Student, identified as "paul" and "peter".

Unified Modeling Language (UML) Class and Instance Diagrams: The above class diagrams are drawn according to the
UML notations. A class is represented as a 3-compartment box, containing name, variables, and methods, respectively. Class name is
shown in bold and centralized. An instance is also represented as a 3-compartment box, with instance name shown as
instanceName:Classname and underlined.

Brief Summar y
1. A class is a programmer-defined, abstract, self-contained, reusable software entity that mimics a real-world thing.
2. A class is a 3-compartment box containing the name, variables and the methods.

[Link] 3/29
27.09.2023 15:18 OOP Basics - Java Programming Tutorial

3. A class encapsulates the data structures (in variables) and algorithms (in methods). The values of the variables constitute its state.
The methods constitute its behaviors.
4. An instance is an instantiation (or realization) of a particular item of a class.

2.3 Class Definition in Java

In Java, we use the keyword class to define a class. For examples:

public class Circle { // class name

double radius; // variables
String color;

double getRadius() { ...... } // methods

double getArea() { ...... }
}

public class SoccerPlayer { // class name

int number; // variables
String name;
int x, y;

void run() { ...... } // methods

void kickBall() { ...... }
}

The syntax for class definition in Java is:

[AccessControlModifier] class ClassName {

// Class body contains members (variables and methods)
......
}

We shall explain the access control modifier, such as public and private, later.

Class Naming Convention: A class name shall be a noun or a noun phrase made up of several words. All the words shall be initial-
capitalized (camel-case). Use a singular noun for class name. Choose a meaningful and self-descriptive classname. For examples,
SoccerPlayer, HttpProxyServer, FileInputStream, PrintStream and SocketFactory.

2.4 Creating Instances of a Class

To create an instance of a class, you have to:
1. Declare an instance identifier (instance name) of a particular class.
2. Construct the instance (i.e., allocate storage for the instance and initialize the instance) using the "new" operator.

For examples, suppose that we have a class called Circle, we can create instances of Circle as follows:

// Declare 3 instances of the class Circle, c1, c2, and c3

Circle c1, c2, c3; // They hold a special value called null
// Construct the instances via new operator
c1 = new Circle();
c2 = new Circle(2.0);
c3 = new Circle(3.0, "red");

// You can Declare and Construct in the same statement

Circle c4 = new Circle();

When an instance is declared but not constructed, it holds a special value called null.

2.5 Dot (.) Operator

The variables and methods belonging to a class are formally called member variables and member methods. To reference a member
variable or method, you must:
1. First identify the instance you are interested in, and then,
2. Use the dot operator (.) to reference the desired member variable or method.

For example, suppose that we have a class called Circle, with two member variables (radius and color) and two member methods
(getRadius() and getArea()). We have created three instances of the class Circle, namely, c1, c2 and c3. To invoke the method
getArea(), you must first identity the instance of interest, say c2, then use the dot operator, in the form of [Link]().

For example,

[Link] 4/29
27.09.2023 15:18 OOP Basics - Java Programming Tutorial

// Suppose that the class Circle has variables radius and color,
// and methods getArea() and getRadius().
// Declare and construct instances c1 and c2 of the class Circle
Circle c1 = new Circle ();
Circle c2 = new Circle ();
// Invoke member methods for the instance c1 via dot operator
[Link]([Link]());
[Link]([Link]());
// Reference member variables for instance c2 via dot operator
[Link] = 5.0;
[Link] = "blue";

Calling getArea() without identifying the instance is meaningless, as the radius is unknown (there could be many instances of Circle -
each maintaining its own radius). Furthermore, [Link]() and [Link]() are likely to produce different results.

In general, suppose there is a class called AClass with a member variable called aVariable and a member method called aMethod(). An
instance called anInstance is constructed for AClass. You use [Link] and [Link]().

2.6 Member Variables

A member variable has a name (or identifier) and a type; and holds a value of that particular type (as descried in the earlier chapter).

Variable Naming Convention: A variable name shall be a noun or a noun phrase made up of several words. The first word is in
lowercase and the rest of the words are initial-capitalized (camel-case), e.g., fontSize, roomNumber, xMax, yMin and xTopLeft.

The formal syntax for variable definition in Java is:

[AccessControlModifier] type variableName [= initialValue];

[AccessControlModifier] type variableName-1 [= initialValue-1] [, type variableName-2 [= initialValue-2]] ... ;

For example,

private double radius;

public int length = 1, width = 1;

2.7 Member Methods

A method (as described in the earlier chapter):
1. receives arguments from the caller,
2. performs the operations defined in the method body, and
3. returns a piece of result (or void) to the caller.

The syntax for method declaration in Java is as follows:

[AccessControlModifier] returnType methodName ([parameterList]) {

// method body or implementation
......
}

For examples:

// Return the area of this Circle instance

public double getArea() {
return radius * radius * [Link];
}

Method Naming Convention: A method name shall be a verb, or a verb phrase made up of several words. The first word is in
lowercase and the rest of the words are initial-capitalized (camel-case). For example, getArea(), setRadius(), getParameterValues(),
hasNext().

Variable name vs. Method name vs. Class name : A variable name is a noun, denoting an attribute; while a method name is a
verb, denoting an action. They have the same naming convention (the first word in lowercase and the rest are initial-capitalized).
Nevertheless, you can easily distinguish them from the context. Methods take arguments in parentheses (possibly zero arguments with
empty parentheses), but variables do not. In this writing, methods are denoted with a pair of parentheses, e.g., println(), getArea() for
clarity.

On the other hand, class name is a noun beginning with uppercase.

2.8 Putting them Together: An OOP Example

[Link] 5/29
27.09.2023 15:18 OOP Basics - Java Programming Tutorial

A class called Circle is defined as shown in the class diagram. It contains two private member variables: radius (of type double) and
color (of type String); and three public member methods: getRadius(), getColor(), and getArea().

Three instances of Circles, called c1, c2, and c3, shall be constructed with their respective data members, as shown in the instance
diagrams.

The source codes for [Link] is as follows:

[Link]
1 /**
2 * The Circle class models a circle with a radius and color.
3 */
4 public class Circle { // Save as "[Link]"
5 // Private instance variables
6 private double radius;
7 private String color;
8
9 // Constructors (overloaded)
10 /** Constructs a Circle instance with default radius and color */
11 public Circle() { // 1st Constructor (default constructor)
12 radius = 1.0;
13 color = "red";
14 }
15 /** Constructs a Circle instance with the given radius and default color*/
16 public Circle(double r) { // 2nd Constructor
17 radius = r;
18 color = "red";
19 }
20 /** Constructs a Circle instance with the given radius and color */
21 public Circle(double r, String c) { // 3rd Constructor
22 radius = r;
23 color = c;
24 }
25
26 // Public methods
27 /** Returns the radius */
28 public double getRadius() { // getter for radius
29 return radius;
30 }
31 /** Returns the color */
32 public String getColor() { // getter for color
33 return color;
34 }
35 /** Returns the area of this circle */
36 public double getArea() {
37 return radius * radius * [Link];

[Link] 6/29
27.09.2023 15:18 OOP Basics - Java Programming Tutorial
38 }
39 }

Compile "[Link]" into "[Link]".

cd \path\to\project-directory
javac [Link]

Notice that the Circle class does not have a main() method. Hence, it is NOT a standalone program and you cannot run the Circle
class by itself. The Circle class is meant to be a building block - to be used in other programs.

[Link]
We shall now write another class called TestCircle, which uses the Circle class. The TestCircle class has a main() method and can
be executed.

1 /**
2 * A Test Driver for the "Circle" class
3 */
4 public class TestCircle { // Save as "[Link]"
5 public static void main(String[] args) { // Program entry point
6 // Declare and Construct an instance of the Circle class called c1
7 Circle c1 = new Circle(2.0, "blue"); // Use 3rd constructor
8 [Link]("The radius is: " + [Link]()); // use dot operator to invoke member methods
9 //The radius is: 2.0
10 [Link]("The color is: " + [Link]());
11 //The color is: blue
12 [Link]("The area is: %.2f%n", [Link]());
13 //The area is: 12.57
14
15 // Declare and Construct another instance of the Circle class called c2
16 Circle c2 = new Circle(2.0); // Use 2nd constructor
17 [Link]("The radius is: " + [Link]());
18 //The radius is: 2.0
19 [Link]("The color is: " + [Link]());
20 //The color is: red
21 [Link]("The area is: %.2f%n", [Link]());
22 //The area is: 12.57
23
24 // Declare and Construct yet another instance of the Circle class called c3
25 Circle c3 = new Circle(); // Use 1st constructor
26 [Link]("The radius is: " + [Link]());
27 //The radius is: 1.0
28 [Link]("The color is: " + [Link]());
29 //The color is: red
30 [Link]("The area is: %.2f%n", [Link]());
31 //The area is: 3.14
32 }
33 }

Compile [Link] into [Link].

javac [Link]

Run the TestCircle and study the outputs (shown in blue).

java TestCircle

2.9 Constructors
A constructor is a special method that has the same method name as the class name. That is, the constructor of the class Circle is called
Circle(). In the above Circle class, we define three overloaded versions of constructor Circle(...). A constructor is used to construct
and initialize all the member variables. To construct a new instance of a class, you need to use a special "new" operator followed by a call
to one of the constructors. For example,

Circle c1 = new Circle(); // use 1st constructor

Circle c2 = new Circle(2.0); // use 2nd constructor
Circle c3 = new Circle(3.0, "red"); // use 3rd constructor

A constructor method is different from an ordinary method in the following aspects:

[Link] 7/29
27.09.2023 15:18 OOP Basics - Java Programming Tutorial

The name of the constructor method must be the same as the classname. By classname's convention, it begins with an uppercase
(instead of lowercase for ordinary methods).
Constructor has no return type in its method heading. It implicitly returns void. No return statement is allowed inside the
constructor's body.
Constructor can only be invoked via the "new" operator. It can only be used once to initialize the instance constructed. Once an
instance is constructed, you cannot call the constructor anymore.
Constructors are not inherited (to be explained later). Every class shall define its own constructors.

Default Constructor : A constructor with no parameter is called the default constructor. It initializes the member variables to their
default values. For example, the Circle() in the above example initialize member variables radius and color to their default values.

2.10 Revisit Method Overloading

Method overloading means that the same method name can have different implementations (versions). However, the different
implementations must be distinguishable by their parameter list (either the number of parameters, or the type of parameters, or their
order).

Example: The method average() has 3 versions, with different parameter lists. The caller can invoke the chosen version by supplying
the matching arguments.

1 /**
2 * Example to illustrate "Method Overloading"
3 */
4 public class MethodOverloadingTest {
5 public static int average(int n1, int n2) { // version 1
6 [Link]("Run version 1");
7 return (n1+n2)/2;
8 }
9 public static double average(double n1, double n2) { // version 2
10 [Link]("Run version 2");
11 return (n1+n2)/2;
12 }
13 public static int average(int n1, int n2, int n3) { // version 3
14 [Link]("Run version 3");
15 return (n1+n2+n3)/3;
16 }
17
18 public static void main(String[] args) {
19 [Link](average(1, 2));
20 //Run version 1
21 //1
22 [Link](average(1.0, 2.0));
23 //Run version 2
24 //1.5
25 [Link](average(1, 2, 3));
26 //Run version 3
27 //2
28 [Link](average(1.0, 2));
29 //Run version 2 (int 2 implicitly casted to double 2.0)
30 //1.5
31
32 //average(1, 2, 3, 4);
33 //compilation error: no suitable method found for average(int,int,int,int)
34 }
35 }

Overloading Circle Class' Constructor

Constructor, like an ordinary method, can also be overloaded. The above Circle class has three overloaded versions of constructors
differentiated by their parameter list, as followed:

Circle() // the default constructor

Circle(double r)
Circle(double r, String c)

Depending on the actual argument list used when invoking the method, the matching constructor will be invoked. If your argument list
does not match any one of the methods, you will get a compilation error.

Note : C language does not support method overloading. You need to use different method names for each of the variations. C++, Java,
C# support method overloading.

2.11 The Access Control Modifiers: public/private

An access control modifier can be used to control the visibility of a class, or a member variable or a member method within a class. We
begin with the following two access control modifiers:
1. public: The class/variable/method is accessible and available to ALL the other objects in the system.
2. private: The class/variable/method is accessible and available within this class only.

For example, in the above Circle definition, the member variable radius is declared private. As the result, radius is accessible inside
the Circle class, but NOT in the TestCircle class. In other words, you cannot use "[Link]" to refer to c1's radius in TestCircle.
Try inserting the statement "[Link]([Link])" in TestCircle and observe the error message (error: radius has
private access in Circle).
Try changing radius to public in the Circle class, and re-run the above statement.

On the other hand, the method getRadius() is declared public in the Circle class. Hence, it can be invoked in the TestCircle class,
e.g., [Link]().

UML Notation: In UML class diagram, public members are denoted with a "+"; while private members with a "-".
More access control modifiers will be discussed later.

2.12 Information Hiding and Encapsulation

A class encapsulates the name, static attributes and dynamic behaviors into a "3-compartment box". Once a class is defined, you can seal
up the "box" and put the "box" on the shelve for others to use and reuse. Anyone can pick up the "box" and use it in their application.
This cannot be done in the traditional procedural-oriented language like C, as the static attributes (or variables) are scattered over the
entire program and header files. You cannot "cut" out a portion of C program, plug into another program and expect the program to run
without extensive changes.

Member variables of a class are typically hidden from the outside word (i.e., the other classes), with private access control modifier.
Access to the member variables are provided via public assessor methods, e.g., getRadius() and getColor().

This follows the principle of information hiding. That is, objects communicate with each others using well-defined interfaces (public
methods). Objects are not allowed to know the implementation details of others. The implementation details are hidden or encapsulated
within the class. Information hiding facilitates reuse of the class.

Rule of Thumb: Do not make any variables public, unless you have a good reason.

2.13 The public Getters/Setters for private Variables

To allow other classes to read the value of a private variable say xxx, we provide a get method (or getter or accessor method) called
getXxx(). A get method needs not expose the data in raw format. It can process the data and limit the view of the data others will see.
The getters shall not modify the variable.

To allow other classes to modify the value of a private variable say xxx, we provide a set method (or setter or mutator method) called
setXxx(). A set method could provide data validation (such as range checking), or transform the raw data into the internal
representation.

For example, in our Circle class, the variables radius and color are declared private. That is to say, they are only accessible within the
Circle class and not visible in any other classes, including the TestCircle class. You cannot access the private variables radius and
color from the TestCircle class directly - via say [Link] or [Link]. The Circle class provides two public accessor methods,
namely, getRadius() and getColor(). These methods are declared public. The class TestCircle can invoke these public accessor
methods to retrieve the radius and color of a Circle object, via say [Link]() and [Link]().

There is no way you can change the radius or color of a Circle object, after it is constructed in the TestCircle class. You cannot issue
statements such as [Link] = 5.0 to change the radius of instance c1, as radius is declared as private in the Circle class and is
not visible to other classes including TestCircle.

If the designer of the Circle class permits the change the radius and color after a Circle object is constructed, he has to provide the
appropriate set methods (or setters or mutator methods), e.g.,

// Setter for color

public void setColor(String newColor) {
color = newColor;
}

// Setter for radius

public void setRadius(double newRadius) {

[Link] 9/29
27.09.2023 15:18 OOP Basics - Java Programming Tutorial
radius = newRadius;
}

With proper implementation of information hiding, the designer of a class has full control of what the user of the class can and cannot do.

2.14 Keyword "this"

You can use keyword "this" to refer to this instance inside a class definition.

One of the main usage of keyword this is to resolve ambiguity.

public class Circle {

double radius; // member variable called "radius"
public Circle(double radius) { // method's parameter also called "radius"
[Link] = radius;
// "radius = radius" does not make sense!
// "[Link]" refers to this instance's member variable
// "radius" resolved to the method's parameter.
}
...
}

In the above codes, there are two identifiers called radius - a member variable of the class and the method's parameter. This causes
naming conflict. To avoid the naming conflict, you could name the method's argument r instead of radius. However, radius is more
approximate and meaningful in this context. Java provides a keyword called this to resolve this naming conflict. "[Link]" refers to
the member variable; while "radius" resolves to the method's argument.

Using the keyword "this", the constructor, getter and setter methods for a private variable called xxx of type T are as follows:

public class Ccc {

// A private variable named xxx of the type T
private T xxx;

// Constructor
public Ccc(T xxx) {
[Link] = xxx;
}

// A getter for variable xxx of type T receives no argument and return a value of type T
public T getXxx() {
return xxx; // or "return [Link]" for clarity
}

// A setter for variable xxx of type T receives a parameter of type T and return void
public void setXxx(T xxx) {
[Link] = xxx;
}
}

For a boolean variable xxx, the getter shall be named isXxx() or hasXxx(), which is more meaningful than getXxx(). The setter
remains as setXxx().

// private boolean variable

private boolean xxx;

// getter
public boolean isXxx() {
return xxx; // or "return [Link]" for clarity
}

// setter
public void setXxx(boolean xxx) {
[Link] = xxx;
}

More on "this"
[Link] refers to varName of this instance; [Link](...) invokes methodName(...) of this instance.
In a constructor, we can use this(...) to call another constructor of this class.
Inside a method, we can use the statement "return this" to return this instance to the caller.

2.15 Method toString()

[Link] 10/29
27.09.2023 15:18 OOP Basics - Java Programming Tutorial

Every well-designed Java class shall have a public method called toString() that returns a string description of this instance. You
can invoke the toString() method explicitly by calling [Link](), or implicitly via println() or String
concatenation operator '+'. That is, running println(anInstance) invokes the toString() method of that instance implicitly.

For example, include the following toString() method in our Circle class:

// Return a String description of this instance

public String toString() {
return "Circle[radius=" + radius + ",color=" + color + "]";
}

In your TestCircle class, you can get a description of a Circle instance via:

Circle c4 = new Circle();

[Link]([Link]()); // Explicitly calling toString()
//Circle[radius=1.0,color=red]
[Link](c4); // Implicit call to [Link]()
//Circle[radius=1.0,color=red]
[Link]("c4 is: " + c4); // '+' invokes toString() to get a String before concatenation
//Circle[radius=1.0,color=red]

The signature of toString() is:

public String toString() { ...... }

2.16 Constants (final)

Constants are variables defined with the modifier final. A final variable can only be assigned once and its value cannot be modified
once assigned. For example,

public final double X_REFERENCE = 1.234;

private final int MAX_ID = 9999;

MAX_ID = 10000; //compilation error: cannot assign a value to final variable MAX_ID

// You need to initialize a final member variable during declaration

private final int SIZE; //compilation error: variable SIZE might not have been initialized

Constant Naming Convention: A constant name is a noun, or a noun phrase made up of several words. All words are in uppercase
separated by underscores '_', for examples, X_REFERENCE, MAX_INTEGER and MIN_VALUE.

Advanced notes for final:

1. A final primitive variable cannot be re-assigned a new value.
2. A final instance cannot be re-assigned a new object.
3. A final class cannot be sub-classed (or extended).
4. A final method cannot be overridden.

2.17 Putting Them Together in the Finalized Circle Class

We shall include constructors, getters, setters, toString(), and use the keyword "this". The class diagram for the final Circle class is as
follows:

A method setXY(), which sets the x and y of the point; and a method getXY(), which returns the x and y in a 2-element int array.
A toString(), which returns "(x,y)".
3 versions of overloaded distance():
distance(int x, int y) returns the distance from this instance to the given point at (x,y).
distance(Point another) returns the distance from this instance to the given Point instance (called another).
distance() returns the distance from this instance to (0,0).

In this example, we shall validate the inputs to ensure that 0≤hour≤23, 0≤minute≤59, and 0≤second≤59. We re-write our Time class as
follows. Take note that all the validations are done in the setters. All other methods (such as constructors and setTime() invoke the
setters to perform input validations - so as to avoid duplication of codes.

/**
* The Time class models a time instance with second, minute and hour.
* This class performs input validations.

public class Time {
// The private instance variables - with input validations.
private int second; // valid range is [0, 59]

// Input validations are done in the setters.

// All the other methods (such as constructors and setTime()) invoke
// these setters to perform input validations to avoid code duplication.
/** Sets the second to the given value with input validation */
public void setSecond(int second) {
if (second >=0 && second <= 59) {
[Link] = second;
} else {
[Link] = 0; // Set to 0 and print error message
[Link]("error: invalid second");
}
}
/** Sets the minute to the given value with input validation */

}

Exercise : Write a Test Driver to test the above Time class with various valid and invalid values.

3.5 EG. 5 (Advanced): The Time Class with Input Validation via Exception Handling
In the previous example, we print a error message and set the variable to 0, if the input is invalid. This is less than perfect. The proper way
to handle invalid inputs is via the so-called exception handling mechanism.

The revised [Link] that uses exception handling mechanism is as follows:

1 /**
2 * The Time class models a time instance with second, minute and hour.
3 * This class performs input validations using exception handling.
4 */
5 public class Time {
6 // The private instance variables - with input validations.
7 private int second; // valid range is [0, 59]
8 private int minute; // valid range is [0, 59]
9 private int hour; // valid range is [0, 23]

14 /** Sets the second to the given value with input validation */
15 public void setSecond(int second) {
16 if (second >=0 && second <= 59) {
17 [Link] = second;
18 } else {
19 throw new IllegalArgumentException("invalid second");
20 }
21 }
22 /** Sets the minute to the given value with input validation */
23 public void setMinute(int minute) {
24 if (minute >=0 && minute <= 59) {
25 [Link] = minute;
26 } else {
27 throw new IllegalArgumentException("invalid minute");
28 }
29 }
30 /** Sets the hour to the given value with input validation */
31 public void setHour(int hour) {
32 if (hour >=0 && hour <= 23) {
33 [Link] = hour;
34 } else {
35 throw new IllegalArgumentException("invalid hour");
36 }
37 }
38
39 /** Sets second, minute and hour to the given values with input validation */
40 public void setTime(int second, int minute, int hour) {

77 /** Advances this Time instance by one second and returns this instance to support chaining */
78 public Time nextSecond() {
79 ++second;
80 if (second == 60) { // We are sure that second <= 60 here because of the input validation

87 hour = 0;
88 }
89 }
90 }
91 return this; // Return this instance, to support chaining
92 }
93 }

Exception Handling
What to do if an invalid hour, minute or second was given as input argument? Print an error message? Terminate the program abruptly?
Continue operation by setting the parameter to its default? This is a really hard decision and there is no perfect solution that suits all
situations.

In Java, instead of printing an error message, you can throw an so-called Exception object (such as IllegalArgumentException) to the
caller, and let the caller handles the exception gracefully.

For example, we validate the hour input as follows:

// Throw an exception if input is invalid

public void setHour(int hour) {
if (hour >= 0 && hour <= 23) {
[Link] = hour;
} else {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("invalid hour");
}
}

If the caller provides an invalid hour without handling the exception, the program terminates with a runtime error. For example,

Time t11 = new Time(58, 59, 24);

//[Link]: invalid hour

The caller can choose to handle the exception using the try-catch construct to process the exception gracefully. For example,

/**
* A Test Driver for the Time class
*/
public class TestTime {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// Case 1: valid input
//int hour = 23, minute = 58, second = 58;
// Case 2: invalid input
int hour = 24, minute = 58, second = 58;
Time t12;

//t12 = new Time(second, minute, hour);

// Without try-catch, the program will terminate abruptly if exception thrown

try {
t12 = new Time(second, minute, hour);
// If input is invalid, throw exception. Skip the rest, goto "catch".
// Else complete "try", skip "catch"
[Link]("valid input");
} catch (IllegalArgumentException ex) {
// You have the opportunity to do something to recover from the error.
[Link](); // print error messages
[Link]("Error in input. Set to default value");
// You should ask the user to provide the valid input instead!
t12 = new Time();
}

[Link]("Time is " + t12);

[Link]("Life goes on...");

// Case 1 output
//valid input
//Time is 23:58:58
//Life goes on...

// Case 2 output
//[Link]: invalid hour
//Error in input. Set to default value

[Link] 22/29
27.09.2023 15:18 OOP Basics - Java Programming Tutorial
//Time is 00:00:00
//Life goes on...
}
}

The statements in the try-clause will be executed. If all the statements in the try-clause are successful, the catch-clause is ignored, and
execution continues to the next statement after try-catch. However, if one of the statement in the try-clause throws an exception (in
this case, an IllegalArgumentException), the rest of try-clause will be skipped, and the execution will be transferred to the catch-
clause. The program always continues to the next statement after the try-catch (instead of abruptly terminated).

3.6 EG. 6: The Account Class

A class called Account, which models a bank account, is designed as shown in the class diagram. It contains the following members:
Two private instance variables: accountNumber (int), and balance (double) which maintains the current account balance.
Constructors (overloaded).
Getters and Setters for the private instance variables. There is no setter for accountNumber as it is not designed to be changed.
public methods credit() and debit(), which adds/subtracts the given amount to/from the balance, respectively.
A toString(), which returns "A/C no:xxx, Balance=$[Link]", with balance rounded to two decimal places.

Write the Account class and a test driver to test all the public methods.

Tr y : Re-design the methods credit(), debit() and transferTo() to return this instance, so that these methods can be chained, e.g.,
[Link](10).credit(20).debit(5).transferTo(5.5, a2). For debit() and transferTo() you need to throw an exception
instead printing an error message. See the above Time class.

3.7 EG. 7: The Ball class

A Ball class models a moving ball, is designed as shown in the class diagram. It contains the following members:
4 private variables x, y, xStep, yStep, which maintain the position of the ball and the displacement per move step.
Constructors, getters and setters.
Method setXY() and setXYStep(), which sets the position and step size of the ball; and getXY() and getXYSpeed().

A toString(), which returns "Ball@(x,y),speed=(xStep,yStep)".

A method move(), which increases x and y by xStep and yStep respectively; and returns this instance to support chaining
operation.

3.8 EG. 8: The Student Class

Suppose that our application requires us to model students. A student has a name and an address. We are required to keep track of the
courses taken by each student, together with the grades (between 0 and 100) for each of the courses. A student shall not take more than
30 courses for the entire program. We are required to print all course grades, and also the overall average grade.

We can design the Student class as shown in the class diagram. It contains the following members:
private instance variables name (String), address (String), numCourses (int), course (String[30]) and grades (int[30]). The
numCourses keeps track of the number of courses taken by this student so far. The courses and grades are two parallel arrays,
storing the courses taken (e.g., {"IM101", "IM102", "IM103"}) and their respective grades (e.g. {89, 56, 98}).
A constructor that constructs an instance with the given name and Address. It also constructs the courses and grades arrays and set
the numCourses to 0.
Getters for name and address; setter for address. No setter is defined for name as it is not designed to be changed.
A toString(), which prints "name(address)".
A method addCourseGrade(course, grade), which appends the given course and grade into the courses and grades arrays,
respectively; and increments numCourses.
A method printGrades(), which prints "name course1:grade1, course2:grade2,...".
A method getAverageGrade(), which returns the average grade of all the courses taken.
