Warm-Up: April 21

1. Warm-Up: April 21 • Write a loop (type of your choosing) that prints every 3rd number between 10 and 50.

2. User-Defined Methods Pre-AP Computer Science, Cycle 6

3. Case Study: Sum the integers between 1 and 10, 20 and 30, and 35 to 45. int sum=0; for (inti=1; i <= 10; i++) sum = sum + i; System.out.println(“Sum from 1-10 is “ + sum); sum=0; for (inti=20; i <= 30; i++) sum = sum + i; System.out.println(“Sum from 20-30 is “ + sum); sum=0; for (inti=35; i <= 45; i++) sum = sum + i; System.out.println(“Sum from 35-45 is “ + sum);

4. Case Study: Sum the integers between 1 and 10, 20 and 30, and 35 to 45. int sum=0; for (inti=1; i <= 10; i++) sum = sum + i; System.out.println(“Sum from 1-10 is “ + sum); sum=0; for (inti=20;i <= 30; i++) sum = sum + i; System.out.println(“Sum from 20-30 is “ + sum); sum=0; for (inti=35; i <= 45; i++) sum = sum + i; System.out.println(“Sum from 35-45 is “ + sum);

5. Case Study – Using Methods public static int sum(int start, int end) { int sum=0; for (inti = start; i<= end; i++) sum = sum + i; return sum; } public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println(“Sum from 1-10 is “ + sum(1,10)); System.out.println(“Sum from 20-30 is “ + sum(20,30)); System.out.println(“Sum from 35-45 is “ + sum(35,45)); }

6. Methods • Associated with classes • Define what objects are capable of doing • Actions • Essentially any command that ends with a pair of parentheses (empty or otherwise) • System.out.print() • Math.max() • console.nextInt()

7. User-Defined Methods • The methods we’ve used so far have come pre-written, stored in other files called packages • Usually have to import those files into our programs in order to use those pre-written methods (java.util.* to use Scanner) • However, we can write our own methods! • User-defined methods • Examples of possibly useful methods to write • Sum of integers between two numbers • isPrime • isEven or isOdd

8. Why use methods? • Like loops, they help make code • simpler, • shorter, • more efficient, • and more organized • Modularization!

9. Dissecting a Method public static int sum(int start, int end) { int sum=0; for (inti = start; i <= end; i++) sum = sum + i; return sum; }

10. Dissecting a Method public static int sum(int start, int end) { int sum=0; for (inti = start; i <= end; i++) sum = sum + i; return sum; } Modifier – states whether the method is public or private (for our class, ALWAYS PUBLIC STATIC)

11. Dissecting a Method public static int sum(int start, int end) { int sum=0; for (inti = start; i <= end; i++) sum = sum + i; return sum; } Return type – data type of the information the method will return (int, double, String, void)

12. Dissecting a Method public static intsum(int start, int end) { int sum=0; for (inti = start; i <= end; i++) sum = sum + i; return sum; } Name of the method – this is the name that will be used when we call the method later (use it)

13. Dissecting a Method public static int sum(int start, int end) { int sum=0; for (inti = start; i <= end; i++) sum = sum + i; return sum; } Parameters – list of variables that we will pass to the method for it to use in the body code (may or may not be parameters)

14. Dissecting a Method public static int sum(int start, int end) { int sum=0; for (inti = start; i <= end; i++) sum = sum + i; return sum; } Method body – statements associated with the method to make it perform the necessary task

15. Dissecting a Method public static int sum(int start, int end) { int sum=0; for (inti = start; i <= end; i++) sum = sum + i; return sum; } Method return – variable or value the method should return as its “answer”

16. 4 Types of Methods • Methods may or may not return values • Methods may or may not accept parameters • 4 type of methods • No parameters OR returns (Type I) • No parameters WITH returns (Type II) • Parameters with NO returns (Type III) • Parameters AND returns (Type IV)

17. Calling a Method • Defining a method does not mean it is automatically used • You must call the method within the main method in order to use it • The method executes, then returns to the same spot in the main method where it was called

18. Calling a Method public static int max(int a, int b) { if (a >= b) return a; else return b; } public static void main(String[] args) { int num1=45; int num2=32; int biggest = max(num1, num2); System.out.println(“Biggest was “ + biggest); }

19. Calling a Method public static int max(int a, int b) { if (a >= b) return a; else return b; } public static void main(String[] args) { int num1=45; int num2=32; int biggest = max(num1, num2); System.out.println(“Biggest was “ + biggest); }

20. Calling a Method public static int max(int a, int b) { if (a >= b) return a; else return b; } public static void main(String[] args) { int num1=45; int num2=32; int biggest = max(num1, num2); System.out.println(“Biggest was “ + biggest); }
