89. What are methods.

1. Idea of methods:
a. Monolithic problems: Whole program is one.
b. Then program was divided into sub modules.
c. To reduce complexity of modules people using
classes.
d. Method is a write term for Object Oriented
Programming.
2. Syntax:
(signature of method)=> returnType
methodName(parameter List)
{
//body of method
}
3. Example:
int max(int x, int y)
{
if(x > y)
{
return x;
} else
{
return y;
}
}
4. A main method is static it can called only static methods.
5. When method is called respective parameters are copied
and operation in methods are only performed on copies of
original variables (only parameter passing method in
java).

90. Writing Methods.


1. Static methods can call only static methods.
91. Passing objects as
parameters.
1. While passing object address of the object is passed.
2. Which modifies actual object.
3. A method can have return type as an object if it returns
object.

92. Practicing passing objects as


parameters.

93. Parameter passing.


1. The parameters of actual method is called Formal
parameters.
2. The parameters of called method is called Actual
parameters.
3. There is only one method of parameter passing that is
content of actual parameter is copied into actual parameter.
4. Primitives are passed by values and objects are passed
by reference.
5. Java has only one parameter passing.

94. Student Challenge: Find Prime


number.
1. Local must be initialized before used.
2. Static and Instance variables are automatically initialized
to their default value(0).

95. Method Overloading.


1. Writing two or more methods with same name but
difference mut be in parameter list.
2. Either datatype of parameter must be different or number
of parameters must be different.
3.Polymorphism: Same name but different behaviour.
4. You cannot have methods with same signature.
5. return type is not considered while comparing two
methods.
96. Practicing Method
Overloading.
97. Student Challenge:
Overloaded Validate-method.
1. Overloaded method to calculate areas.
2. Overloaded method to reverse a int or array.
3. Overloaded method to validate name and age.

98. Variable Arguments vargs(…)


1. All parameters must be of same datatype.
2. Example:
void show(int…x)
{}
*You can take mix of mandatory arguments and variable
arguments.
3. We can as many arguments as we want in above code.
4. Variable arguments should be the last parameter.
5. You can’t take multiple variable arguments.
6. printf() of C language uses ellipse so it can take as many
arguments we want.
7. We can use System.out.printf() in java.
8. vargs and array passing is similar but not same.
9. Can’t create vargs of array.
10. We can use variable arguments in main function
parameters.
99. Practicing variable arguments.
100. Student Challenge: Calculate
Discount.
1. Maximum of numbers using varargs
2. Sum of all elements using varargs
3. Calculate Discount using varargs

1. Integer.MIN_VALUE;
Capital because it is final value.
101. Command Line Arguments.
1. Passing arguments while executing the file on command
line.
2. For example: java a arg1 arg2 …;
3. java CommandTest hello;
Here jvm is using CommandTest as command line
argument.
4. Command line arguments are accessed through main
function.

102. Student Challenge: Sum of


Numbers from Command Line.
1. Adding Numbers using Command Line.
2. Double.parseDouble() this method is used to convert
string to double.
3. if (x.matches("[0-9\\.]"))
\\. because it will say only . can between digits.

103. Recursion
1. A method calling itself is called recursive method.
2. Recursion creates series of function waiting for last
function return value so they can return.
3. It like rubber band.
4. The code after the recursive statement is execute after
execution of after the recursive statement.
5. Recursion is not used in programming.
6. It takes extra time and extra space.
7. Recursion is used in problem solving. Math have
recursion to solve the problem.
