This page inlcudes syntax only and is intended for those with some programming experience. You will not learn when to use the code, why it works, or how to incorporate it into your program.

You may include any or all of the following syntax into your program to make your code handle increasingly complex problems.

Note: Notice how close Java and C++ are in their syntax!

• Comments

  // This is a single-line comment.
  
  /* This comment spans across
  
  more than one line. */
  

• Conditional Statements

  if (boolean expression)
  {
  	statement 1;
  	statement 2;
  	statement 3;
  }
  else if (boolean expression)
  {
  	statement 1;
  }
  else
  {
  	statement 1;
  	statement 2;
  }
  

• While Loop

  while (condition)
  {
  	statement 1;
  	statement 2;
  }
  

• For Loop

  for (initialize ; condition ; update )
  {
  	statements;
  }
  

• Do Loop

  do
  {
  	statement 1;
  	// notice semicolon at the bottom
  	statement 2;
  } while (condition);
  

• Arrays

  int [] my_array = new int[10];
  	// Declaring Array w/10 Integers
  my_array[0]=12;
  my_array[1]=35;
  	// Initializing Array elements
  
  int [] my_array2 = {3,1,9,3,7,5,8,7,1,8};
  	// Declaration & Initialization
  

• Strings

  String my_string = new String();
  	// Declaration
  my_string = "Hello World";
  	// Initialization
  
  String my_string = "Hello World";
  	// Declaration & Initialization
  

• Functions (Static Methods)

  public static rtrn_type methodName (args)
  {
  	statemets;
  }
  
  /* example **************************
  public static int square (int n)
  {
  	int sq=0;
  	sq = n*n;
  	return sq;
  }
