Time | Narration |
00:02 | Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on getting started with the First java program. |
00:09 | In this tutorial, we will learn: |
00:11 | * To create a simple Java program |
00:14 | * To compile the program |
00:16 | * To run the program and |
00:19 | * About the naming conventions followed in Java. |
00:23 | Here we are using Ubuntu version 11.10 and jdk 1.6. |
00:32 | To follow this tutorial JDK 1.6 must be installed on your system. |
00:39 | If not, for relevant tutorial, please visit our website which is as shown. |
00:46 | Alright now let us write our first Java program. |
00:51 | For that, you need a Terminal and you need a Text Editor. |
00:56 | I am using gedit as my Text Editor. |
01:01 | In the text editor, we will first create the class HelloWorld. |
01:06 | So type: class HelloWorld. "HelloWorld" is the name of the class. |
01:17 | And open curly bracket. Enter and close curly bracket. |
01:24 | The code between these two curly brackets will belong to the class 'HelloWorld'. |
01:33 | Now save the file by clicking on Save icon at the top. |
01:37 | It is a good practice to save the file frequently. |
01:43 | so Save As Dialog box appears. |
01:46 | Browse the location where you want to save your file. |
01:51 | Here, in the home directory I will create a folder. |
01:57 | Let us name it Demo and press Enter. |
02:02 | Then, inside this folder we will save the file. |
02:08 | In the Name text-box, type the name of the class. |
02:13 | In Java, the name of the class and the file name should be same. |
02:20 | Recall that we created class HelloWorld. |
02:25 | So, we will save the file as HelloWorld dot java. |
02:33 | Dot Java (.java) is the file extension given to the Java file. |
02:39 | Then click on Save button. So the file is now saved. |
02:47 | Inside the class, we write the main method. |
02:53 | So type: |
02:54 | public static void main parentheses inside parentheses String arg square brackets |
03:10 | main function marks the starting point of the program. |
03:15 | We will describe public, static, void and String in a future tutorial. |
03:23 | Then once again, open curly bracket, |
03:27 | press Enter and close curly bracket. |
03:32 | The code between these two curly brackets will belong to the main method. |
03:41 | We will now write a code to display a line on the Terminal. |
03:46 | So, inside main method, type: System dot out dot println parentheses semi-colon. |
03:59 | This is the statement used to print a line, |
04:05 | semi-colon is used to terminate a line. |
04:10 | Now let us tell Java, what to print. |
04:13 | So, within parentheses in double quotes, type: My first Java program exclamation mark. |
04:30 | Let us save the file by clicking on Save icon. |
04:36 | Let's go to the Terminal. |
04:38 | Make sure that you are in the directory where you saved your 'HelloWorld.java' |
04:46 | Remember that I am in my home directory. |
04:50 | So, type: cd Space Demo and hit Enter. |
04:56 | ls, press Enter. |
04:59 | We see 'HelloWorld.java' file present in the Demo folder. |
05:06 | Let's compile this file. So, type: javac Space HelloWorld dot java and hit Enter. |
05:21 | This compiles the file that we have created. |
05:25 | Alright, now the file is compiled as we see no error. |
05:30 | We can see HelloWorld.class file created. |
05:36 | This file can run anywhere. |
05:38 | That is, on any Operating System. |
05:41 | We do not need java compiler as well. |
05:45 | Hence, java is rightly described as “write once, run anywhere.” |
05:51 | So, after successful compilation, run the program using the command, |
05:56 | java(This time no c) space HelloWorld(and no dot java extension) and hit Enter. |
06:07 | You will get the output My first java program! |
06:13 | So, we have written our first java program. Let us go back to the editor. |
06:22 | Now, remove the semicolon which is at the end of the statement. |
06:27 | Click on Save icon. |
06:29 | Let us go back to the Terminal. |
06:33 | Run the command javac HelloWorld dot java. |
06:41 | The compiler gives an error. |
06:44 | It says, a semicolon (;) is expected on the fifth line. |
06:52 | The up-arrow points to the error statement. |
06:57 | Let us go back to the Editor. |
07:01 | In Java, all statements are terminated with semicolons. |
07:06 | So, go to the fifth line and add a semicolon. |
07:13 | Click on the Save icon. It is necessary to save the file before compiling. |
07:22 | Let us go back to the Terminal. |
07:25 | Compile the file using javac HelloWorld dot java. |
07:32 | The file is successfully compiled as we see no errors. |
07:36 | Now, run the program using the command java HelloWorld and |
07:45 | we see the output My first Java program! |
07:49 | This is how you handle errors in java. |
07:54 | As the series progresses, we will learn more about the errors. |
08:02 | We now see what are the naming conventions in java. |
08:06 | The class name should be in CamelCase |
08:10 | which means each new word begins with an upper case. |
08:14 | Example: class HelloWorld, class ChessGame. |
08:19 | So, 'H' of 'Hello' and 'W' of 'World' are in uppercase. |
08:25 | Similarly, 'C' and 'G' of 'ChessGame' respectively are in uppercase. |
08:31 | The method name should be the mixed case. |
08:35 | which means that the first word should begin with a lowercase. |
08:39 | and all new words followed should begin with an uppercase. |
08:44 | Also the method name should be a verb. |
08:48 | For Example: showString(), main(), goToHelp(). Here 's' of show is in lowercase while 'S' of string is in uppercase. |
09:02 | The variable name should not begin with digits. |
09:06 | We cannot use keywords for our class, method or variable name. |
09:13 | For example: cannot use keywords like public, private, void, static and many more. |
09:22 | So in this tutorial, we have learnt to write, compile and run a simple java program. |
09:30 | We also saw the naming conventions followed in java. |
09:35 | For self assessment, write a simple java program to print "Java file name and class name should be same". |
