Slide 1
Welcome |
Welcome to the spoken tutorial on Arithmetic Operations in Java. |
Slide 2
Learning Outcomes |
In this tutorial, you will learn about the various Numeric Operators in Java that are
Addition Subtraction Multiplication Division and How to use them. |
Slide 3
Tools Used |
For this tutorial we are using
Ubuntu 11.10, JDK 1.6 and Eclipse 3.7 |
Slide 4
Prerequisites |
For this tutorial, you should have
Eclipse installed on your system and should know how to create, save and run a file in Eclipse.
|
Slide 5
Operators |
Here is a list of operators and the mathematical operations they perform
We shall look at each of them in detail. |
Minimize Slides and open Eclipse
Eclipse should contain the following code public class ArithmeticOperations{ public static void main(String[] args){ } } |
We have Eclipse IDE and the skeleton required for the rest of the code.
|
Type in main method
int x = 5; int y = 10; int result; |
We have created three variable.
|
Type in main method
result = x + y; System.out.println(result); |
Let us add them and print the result.
|
Save and Run. | Now let us Run the code.
|
Point to output. | As we can see, the result now has the sum of values in x and y. |
Change x = 5 to x = 75 and y = 10 to y = 15 | Let us change the values now.
And 10 in place of 15 |
Save and Run. | Save and Run |
Point to output | As we can see the output changes as we change the values. |
Change y = 15 to y = -25. | Now let us try negative values.
So type -25 in place of 15 |
Save and Run. | Save and Run. |
Point to output | As we can see, the effect is same as subtracting y from x. |
Change y = -25 to y = 5 and x + y to x – y
|
Now let us try subtraction.
And minus in place of plus |
Save and Run. | Save and Run. |
Point to output | As we can see, we can perform subtraction using the minus operator. |
Change x – y to x * y | Let us try the multiplication.
So type asterisk in place of minus. |
Save and Run. | Save and Run. |
Point to output | As we can see, the asterisk symbol is used to perform multiplication. |
Change x * y to x / y
|
So type front slash in place of asterisk.
|
Save and Run. | Save and Run. |
Point to output | As we can see, the output is as expected. |
Change y = 5 to y = 10
|
Now let us see what happens when the expected result is a decimal point number.
So let us change the result to float.
|
Change int result to float result | Change int to float |
Save and Run.
Point to output. |
Note that although the expected result is 7.5, we get the output as 7.0 |
Point to the operands. | This is because both the operands involved in the division are integers. |
Change y = 10 to y = 10f | Let us change y to a float.
|
Save and Run. Point to output. | Save and Run.
|
Remove everything inside the main function, except the print line and add the following, before
Int result = 8 + 4 – 2;
|
Now let us see what happens when there is more than one operator. |
Save and Run.
|
The result we would expect is 10.
|
Change 8 + 4 – 2 to 8 + 4 / 2
|
Change minus to front slash
|
Change 8 + 4 / 2 to (8 + 4) / 2
|
Add parentheses around 8 + 4
|
Minimize the Eclipse window and switch to slides.
Summary |
We have come to the end of this tutorial.
In this tutorial we have learnt How to perform basic mathematical operations in Java. About operator precedence, and, How to override it. |
Slide 7Assignment
