Solutions 1

public static int getMinIndex(int[] values) {

int minValue = Integer.MAX_VALUE; int minIndex = -1;

for(int i=0; i<values.length; i++) if (values[i] < minValue) { minValue = values[i]; minIndex = i;

}

return minIndex;

}

Solutions 2

public static int getSecondMinIndex(int[] values) { int secondIdx = -1; int minIdx= getMinIndex(values);

for(int i=0; i<values.length; i++) { if (i == minIdx) continue;

if (secondIdx == -1 || values[i] < values[secondIdx]) secondIdx = i;

} return secondIdx;

}

•  What happens if values = {0}?  values = {0, 0}?  values = {0,1}?


•  Array Index vs Array Value

int[] values = {99, 100, 101};

System.out.println(values[0] ); // 99

Values        

Indexes       0        1                         2

•  Curly braces { … } after if/else, for/while

for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++)

System.out.println(“Hi”); System.out.println(“Bye”);

•  What does this print?

•  Variable initialization

int getMinValue(int[] vals) { int min = 0; for (int i = 0; i < vals.length; i++) {

if (vals[i] < min) { min = vals[i]

}

}

}

•  What if vals = {1,2,3}?  Problem?

•  Set min = Integer.MAX_VALUE or vals[0]

•  Variable Initialization – secondMinIndex

int minIdx = getMin(vals) int secondIdx = 0;

for (int i = 0; i < vals.length; i++) { if (i == minIdx) continue; if (vals[i] < vals[secondIdx]) secondIdx = i;

}

•  What if vals = {0, 1, 2}?

•  See solutions

Defining a method inside a method

public static void main(String[] arguments) { public static void foobar () {


Debugging Notes 1

•  Use System.out.println throughout your code to see what it’s doing

for ( int i=0; i< vals.length; i++) {

if ( vals[i] < minVal) {

System.out.println(“cur min: ” + minVal); System.out.println(“new min: ” + vals[i]); minVal = vals[i];

}

}

Debugging Notes 2

•  Formatting

•  Ctrl-shift-f is your friend

for (int i = 0; i < vals.length; i++) { if (vals[i] < vals[minIdx]) {

minIdx=i;}  return minIdx;}

•  Is there a bug?  Who knows!  Hard to read

Object Orien ed Pr

• Objects group together

–  Primitives (int, double, char, etc..)

–  Objects (String, etc…)

Baby

String name boolean isMale double weight

double decibels int numPoops


•  Why not just primitives?

// little baby alex String nameAlex; double weightAlex;

// little baby david String nameDavid; double weightDavid;

•  Why not just primitives?

// little baby alex String nameAlex; double weightAlex;

// little baby david String nameDavid; double weightDavid;

// little baby david

David2?

String nameDavid2;

double weightDavid2;           Terrible

Defining classes

Class - overview

public class Baby { String name; boolean isMale; double weight; double decibels;

int numPoops = 0;

Class

Definition

void poop() {

numPoops += 1;

System.out.println(“Dear mother, ”+

“I have pooped. Ready the diaper.”); }

}

Class - overview

Class

Baby myBaby = new Baby();

Instance

Let’s declare a baby!

public class Baby {

}

Let’s declare a baby!

public class Baby {

fields

methods

}

Note

•  Class names are Capitalized

•  1 Class = 1 file

•  Having a main method means the class can be run


Baby fields

public class Baby {

TYPE var_name;

TYPE var_name = some_value;

Baby fields

public class Baby { String name; double weight = 5.0; boolean isMale; int numPoops = 0;

Baby Siblings?

public class Baby { String name; double weight = 5.0; boolean isMale; int numPoops = 0; XXXXX YYYYY;

Baby Siblings?

public class Baby { String name; double weight = 5.0; boolean isMale; int numPoops = 0; Baby[] siblings;


Ok, let’s make this baby!

Baby ourBaby = new Baby();

But what about it’s name? it’s sex?

Constructors

public class CLASSNAME{

CLASSNAME ( ) {

}

CLASSNAME ([ARGUMENTS]) {

}

}

CLASSNAME obj1 = new CLASSNAME();

CLASSNAME obj2 = new CLASSNAME([ARGUMENTS])

Constructors

•  Constructor name == the class name

•  No return type – never returns anything • Usually initialize fields

•  All classes need at least one constructor

– If you don’t write one, defaults to

CLASSNAME () {

}

Baby constructor

public class Baby { String name; boolean isMale;

Baby(String myname, boolean maleBaby){ name = myname; isMale = maleBaby;

}

}

Baby methods

public class Baby {

String name = “Slim Shady”; ...

void sayHi() {

System.out.println(

“Hi, my name is.. “ + name);

}

}

Baby methods

public class Baby { String weight = 5.0;

void eat(double foodWeight) { if (foodWeight >= 0 && foodWeight < weight) {

weight = weight + foodWeight;

}

}

}

Baby class

public class Baby { String name; double weight = 5.0; boolean isMale; int numPoops = 0; Baby[] siblings;

void sayHi() {…} void eat(double foodWeight) {…}

}

Using classes

Classes and Instances

// class Definition public class Baby {…}

// class Instances

Baby shiloh = new Baby(“Shiloh Jolie-Pitt”, true);

Baby knox = new Baby(“Knox Jolie-Pitt”, true);

Accessing fields

• Object.FIELDNAME

Baby shiloh = new Baby(“Shiloh Jolie-Pitt”, true)

System.out.println(shiloh.name);

System.out.println(shiloh.numPoops);

Calling Methods

•  Object.METHODNAME([ARGUMENTS])

Baby shiloh = new Baby(“Shiloh Jolie-Pitt”, true)

shiloh.sayHi();   // “Hi, my name is ...” shiloh.eat(1);

References vs Values

Primitives vs References

•  Primitive types are basic java types

–  int, long, double, boolean, char, short, byte, float

–  The actual values are stored in the variable

•  Reference types are arrays and objects

–  String, int[], Baby, …

How java stores primitives

•  Variables are like fixed size cups

•  Primitives are small enough that they just fit into the cup

int              double     char            boolean

How java stores objects

• Objects are too big to fit in a variable

–  Stored somewhere else

–  Variable stores a number that locates the object

How java stores objects

•  Objects are too big to fit in a variable

–  Stored somewhere else

–  Variable stores a number that locates the object


•  The object’s location is called a reference • == compares the references

Baby shiloh1 = new Baby(“shiloh”);

Baby shiloh2 = new Baby(“shiloh”); Does shiloh1 == shiloh2?

•  The object’s location is called a reference • == compares the references

Baby shiloh1 = new Baby(“shiloh”);

Baby shiloh2 = new Baby(“shiloh”); Does shiloh1 == shiloh2?

no

Baby shiloh1 = new Baby(“shiloh”);

Baby shiloh2 = new Baby(“shiloh”);

shiloh1                            shiloh2

Baby mybaby = new Baby(“davy”, true) mybaby.name = “david”

Baby mybaby = new Baby(‘davy’, true) mybaby.name = ‘david’

•  Using = updates the reference.

baby1 = baby2

baby1                             baby2

•  Using = updates the reference.

baby1 = baby2

•  using [ ] or

–  Follows the reference to the object

–  May modify the object, but never the reference

•  Imagine

–  Following directions to a house

–  Moving the furniture around

•  Analogous to

–  Following the reference to an object

–  Changing fields in the object


Methods and references

void doSomething(int x, int[] ys, Baby b) { x = 99; ys[0] = 99;

b.name = “99”;

}

...

int i = 0; int[] j = {0};

Baby k = new Baby(“50”, true); doSomething(i, j, k);

i=? j=? k=?

static types and methods

static

• Applies to fields and methods • Means the field/method
