java class syntax code example

Example 1: java class

public class Lightsaber {
  // properties
  private boolean isOn;
  private Color color;
  
  // constructor
  public Lightsaber(Color color) {
    this.isOn = false;
    this.color = color;
  }
  
  // getters
  public Color getColor() {
    return color;
  }
  public boolean getOnStatus() {
    return isOn;
  }
  
  // setters
  public void turnOn() {
    isOn = true;
  }
  public void turnOff() {
    isOn = false;
  }
}



// Implementation in main method:
public class test {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    Lightsaber yoda = new Lightsaber(green);
    yoda.turnOn();
  }
}

Example 2: classes in java

// this might help you understand how classes work
public class MathTest {

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        class MathAdd {

            int num1;
            int num2;

            public int addNumbers() {

                int addThemUp = num1 + num2;
                return addThemUp;
            }
        }

        MathAdd addition = new MathAdd(); // create a new instance of the class

        // you can access variables from the class 
        addition.num1 = 10; 
        addition.num2 = 20;

        // and use the method from the class to add them up
        System.out.println(addition.addNumbers());

    }
}

Example 3: using class in java

public class HelloWorld {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    
    // how to use class in java
    class User{
    	
    	int score;
    }
    
    User dave = new User();
    
    dave.score = 20;
    
    System.out.println(dave.score);
    
 
  }
}

Example 4: using class in java

public class HelloWorld {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    
    // how to use class in java
    class User{
    	
    	int score;
    	
    	// method that can be used outside the class
    	public boolean hasWon(){
    		if(score >= 100){
    			return true;
    		} else {
    			return false;
    		}
    	}
    }
    
    User dave = new User();
    
    dave.score = 20;
    
    System.out.println(dave.hasWon());
    
 
  }
}

Example 5: how to make a class in java

// Public creates avaliability to all classes/files
public class Object {
  // Instance of a variable per each class created
  public int a = 1;
  // Private restricts in local space (within these brackets)
  private int b = 5;
  
  // Defaults as public
  int c = 0;
  
  // Method Examples
  void setB(int B)
  {
  	b = B;
    // No return b/c 'void'
  }
  int getA()
  {
    return b;
    // Return b/c 'int' in front of method
  }
}
