  Print Statements

  public class Hello {
      public static void main(String[] args) {
          System.out.println("Hello World!");
      }
  }
  

  System accesses a Java class that’s built into the language

  out is short for “output”.

  println is short for “print line”.

algorithm

Step-by-step instructions. <

JAVA

A programming language. Java and javascrip are complete different languages.

object oriented laguage

Object-oriented progamming is a way of writting code where you group related data and actions into reusabel "objects" kind of like organizing tools into labeled boxes.

object oriented languages

Object-oriented progamming is a way of writting code where you group related data and actions into reusabel "objects" kind of like organizing tools into labeled boxes.

procedural languages

procedural languages focuse on proceduers (functions) that operate on data in a linear top-down sequence.

class

in java, a class is like a buleprint that defines the structure and behavior ( data and actions) of objects you can create from it.

meathod

A method in Java is a block of code inside a class that preforms a specific task when it's called.

console

The area of a computer that notes from a program can be printed to. Kind of like a notbook.

varibles

A variable is like that box that holds information you want.

strings

A string is a set of words or number that are surrounded by quotation marks ," here is 1 string," - ## Markdown Style Guide for Coding Notebooks Follow this guide to keep your coding notebook **clear, consistent, and professional**. This ensures your notes are easy for you (and others) to read later. --- ## Headings **When to use:** Organize your notebook into sections (like days, topics, or projects). - `#` for the notebook title (use once at the top). - `##` for each day or major topic. - `###` for subsections (like "Notes", "Practice", "Reflections"). # Example: # My Coding Notebook ## Day 1 ### Notes ### Practice # Text Formatting When to use: Highlight important ideas or add emphasis. Use bold for key terms or definitions. Use italic for emphasis or side comments. Use inline code for keywords, functions, or commands. # Example: **Class** = a blueprint for objects *Remember:* always test your code Use `System.out.println()` to print # Code Blocks When to use: Anytime you write multiple lines of code. Inline code for short snippets. Fenced code blocks with language for full examples. # Example: ```java public class Hello { public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println("Hello World!"); } } ``` # Lists When to use: Organize steps, notes, or key points. Numbered lists for sequences or steps. Bulleted lists for unordered ideas. # Example: Define the class Write the main method Test your program Variables - Loops - Conditionals # Checklists When to use: Track progress on assignments or tasks. # Example: [x] Complete coding warm-up - [ ] Finish project draft - [ ] Reflect on learning # Blockquotes When to use: Call out notes, reminders, or teacher comments. # Example: > 💡 Remember: Loops repeat code until a condition is false. # Tables When to use: Compare values, track progress, or organize data neatly. # Example: | Task | Status | Notes | |--------------|------------|-----------------| | Homework 1 | Done # | Submitted | | Homework 2 | Pending | Needs review | # Links & Images When to use: Add references, resources, or visuals. # Example: [Java Docs](https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/)  To make an image that is a link, paste the image, then add the following before it, replacing website address with the link: And after the image info, add: # Collapsible Sections When to use: Hide solutions, extended notes, or extra details. # Example:

Click to reveal solution

System.out.println("Answer: 42");

# Footnotes When to use: Add references or side notes without cluttering the page. # Example: This concept is related to object-oriented programming.[^1] [^1]: See "Objects and Classes" in your textbook. # Style Rules Consistency matters more than creativity Always use headings to structure your notes. Always use code blocks for multi-line code. Clarity first Bold key terms. Use lists instead of long sentences when outlining steps. Professional tone Don’t mix casual notes with formal work in the same section. Use blockquotes for reflections or teacher feedback. Track your learning Use checklists to mark what’s done. Use collapsible sections if you want to hide answers until review time. # Bottom Line: Headings = Structure Bold/Italic = Emphasis Code blocks = Code Lists = Steps/Ideas Tables = Organization Checklists = Progress Blockquotes = Notes/Tips Collapsible = Hide/Show detail Keep it simple, consistent, and clear.
