Java's Creation and Key Concepts

Java was created by James Gosling at Sun Microsystems in 1995, originally named Oak, and is known for its motto 'Write Once, Run Anywhere' which emphasizes platform independence. The document outlines core concepts of Java including syntax, data types, and object-oriented programming principles such as encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism, and abstraction. Additionally, it highlights advanced Java concepts like interfaces, exception handling, and multithreading, showcasing Java's continued relevance in modern programming.

THE BIRTH OF JAVA – A BIT OF HISTORY

 Created by James Gosling at Sun Microsystems in 1995.

 Originally called Oak, renamed to Java (inspired by coffee).

 Motto: "Write Once, Run Anywhere" – platform independence.

 Initially designed for embedded systems but exploded with the rise of the internet.
CORE CONCEPTS OF JAVA (THE BASICS)
Syntax: Simple and readable, C/C++-inspired.

Data Types: int, float, boolean, char, etc.

Operators: Arithmetic, logical, relational.

Control Statements: if, switch, loops


(for, while, do­while).

Arrays and Strings.


OOP CONCEPTS - PART 1
OOP: The Java Way - Encapsulation & Inheritance
 Encapsulation is about binding data using classes and access modifiers.
This concept helps in restricting direct access to some of the object's components, which is a
fundamental principle of OOP.

 Inheritance allows a child class to inherit properties and behaviours from a parent class.
This promotes code reusability and enhances code clarity.

 Real-world examples illustrate OOP concepts effectively, like a Car being a parent class
for ElectricCar and SportsCar.
These examples help in understanding how OOP can model real-life scenarios.
Code Snippet:
class Animal {
void sound() { [Link]("Sound"); }
}
class Dog extends Animal {
void bark() { [Link]("Bark"); }
OOP CONCEPTS - PART 2
OOP: Polymorphism & Abstraction

Advance Java Concepts

■ Interfaces & Abstract Classes.


■ Exception Handling (try-catch-finally) - keeps applications user-friendly and error-tolerant.
■ Collections Framework - List, Set, Map.
■ Multithreading - Run multiple tasks at once.
■ Code Snippet:
try {
int x = 10 / 0;
} catch (ArithmeticException e) {
[Link]("Can't divide by zero");
