Java Basics: Main Method & Data Types

The document discusses the main method in Java, which is static and can receive command line arguments as a String array. It also covers correct usage of System.out.println() to print variables and strings, and explains that the + operator appends a number to a string. Additionally, it lists the primary data types in Java including integer, floating point, character, and boolean, and describes automatic and explicit type conversion between types.

JAVA

Public static void main(String args[])


Static => called without having to instantiate particular instance of the object.
String args[] => to receive command line arguments.
System.out.println("This is num: " + num); -> correct
System.out.println("This is num: " num); -> wrong
System.out.println(num); -> correct
System.out.println(+num); -> correct

+ appends the num to the string.
Using + we can append n no of string in a single statement.
DATA TYPE:

INTEGER=> short,int,long,byte
FLOATING POINT NUMBER => float(32 bit),double(64 bit)
CHAR(8 bit)
BOOLEAN(o or 1)
Automatic type conversion => destination type is larger than the source type.
Explicit type conversion => (target-type)value
