Java Syntax

Java syntax refers to the rules that define how programs written in the Java language are structured and written. These rules determine how code should be formatted, how statements should be constructed, and how various components of a Java program interact.

Key Points of Java Syntax

Case Sensitivity

This means that myVariable and MyVariable are considered different identifiers.

Class Declaration

Every Java program begins with a class declaration:

public class ClassName {
    // Code goes here
}

The file name must match the class name (e.g., ClassName.java).

Main Method

The main method serves as the entry point for any Java application.

public static void main(String[] args) {
    // Program execution starts here
}

Statements

Java code is organized into statements, which are terminated by a semicolon (;)

System.out.println("Hello, World!");

Blocks

Code blocks are enclosed within curly braces {}

public class Example {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Inside a block");
    }
}
