Write down the syntax with reference to Java

Programming
Question 1
to accept an integral value 'p' through Stream Class
InputStreamReader read = new InputStreamReader(System.in);
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(read);
int p = Integer.parseInt(in.readLine());

Question 2
to accept a fractional value (float) 'm' through Scanner Class
Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
float m = in.nextFloat();
Question 3
to accept a character 'd' through Stream Class
InputStreamReader read = new InputStreamReader(System.in);
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(read);
char d = (char)in.read();

Question 4
to accept a fraction value 'n' in double data type through Stream Class
InputStreamReader read = new InputStreamReader(System.in);
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(read);
double n = Double.parseDouble(in.readLine());

Question 5
to accept a word 'wd' through Stream Class
InputStreamReader read = new InputStreamReader(System.in);
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(read);
String wd = in.readLine();

Question 6
to create a scanner object
Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);

Differentiate between the following

Question 1
nextInt( ) and nextFloat( ) methods

nextInt( ) nextFloat( )

Scans the next token of input as an int Scans the next token of input as a float

Answer the following

Question 1
What do you mean by scanner class?
Scanner class is used to get user input. It is present in java.util package.

Question 2
What are the different ways to give inputs in a Java Program?
Java provides the following ways to give input in a program:
1. Using Function Argument.
2. Using InputStreamReader class.
3. Using Scanner class.
4. Using Command Line Arguments.

Question 3
What is the use of the keyword import?
import keyword is used to import built-in and user-defined packages into our Java
program.

Question 4
What is a package? Give an example.
In Java, a package is used to group related classes. Packages are of 2 types:
1. Built-In packages — These are provided by Java API
2. User-Defined packages — These are created by the programmers to
efficiently structure their code.
java.util, java.lang are a couple of examples of built-in packages.

Question 5
What is the use of the keyword 'import' in Java programming?
import keyword is used to import built-in and user-defined packages into our Java
program.
Question 6
What is a compound statement? Give an example.
Two or more statements can be grouped together by enclosing them between
opening and closing curly braces. Such a group of statements is called a compound
statement.
if (a < b) {

/*
* All statements within this set of braces
* form the compound statement
*/

System.out.println("a is less than b");

a = 10;
b = 20;
System.out.println("The value of a is " + a);
System.out.println("The value of b is " + b);

Question 7
Write down the syntax to input a character through scanner class with an example.
Syntax:
char <variable name> = <Scanner Object>.next().charAt(0);
Example:
Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
char ch = in.next().charAt(0);

Question 8
What do you understand by 'Run Time' error? Explain with an example
Errors that occur during the execution of the program primarily due to the state of
the program which can only be resolved at runtime are called Run Time errors.
Consider the below example:
import java.util.Scanner;
class RunTimeError
{
public static void main(String args[]) {
Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.print("Enter a number: ");
int n = in.nextInt();
int result = 100 / n;
System.out.println("Result = " + result);
}
}
This program will work fine for all non-zero values of n entered by the user. When
the user enters zero, a run-time error will occur as the program is trying to perform
an illegal mathematical operation of division by 0. When we are compiling the
program, we cannot say if division by 0 error will occur or not. It entirely depends
on the state of the program at run-time.

Question 9
What are the different types of errors that take place during the execution of a program?
Logical errors and Run-Time errors occur during the execution of the program.

Question 10
Distinguish between:
(a) Testing and Debugging
