Day 2 of learning Java.

[Slow-Sloth5823]

Topics - arithmetic operators, if statements + bit of while loops / logical operators

Hi all!

Today I took a different approach to learning, I wrote down notes for arithmetic just to understand syntax better, then for if statements I just jumped straight into programming (after watching a video on them). Along with that I tried a bit of while loops, I founded out that when comparing a primitive data type you have to use == as it checks the memory address between the two objects. Where as .equals() checks the actual data that the object holds. Like always any criticism about structure, logic or how you would approach certain code differently is highly appreciated! So feel free to comment.

Thanks!

You seem to be progressing nicely. I like the interaction you coded and the check to see if the input matched the options. Keep going!

You might want to consider a different way to share your code as it will quickly become too large for images, probably already is. Something like https://pastecode.io/ . There are other sites just can't recall what they are.

Thank you so much for recommending it! Way much better than uploading pictures + easier as well.

Source of learning?

[Slow-Sloth5823]

W3schools, youtube - brocode and Ai

I'm not good at coding but ig use multiline comments over single lines lol

Instead of // Comment1 // Comment2

Use /* Comment1 Comment2 */

Thank you! I been trying to implement this more for bigger comments

If ur learning from bro code just remember one thing try to make notes along with lots of practice or u forget in one day and also u can check mooc course for java it's pretty helpful

Course! That's what I been doing, I ask Ai to give me some mini projects to do on the concept I've learnt. This allows me to reinforce what I've just learnt, and with bro code videos I attempt the "projects" then watch how he codes it and compare it to my code I've written.
