How to Java Installation and Object-Oriented Design Principles (OOP
Newcomer this is an intro of Java programming! As you begin on your journey into Java, it may be confusing to grasp not only how to set up your environment but also the core principles that will guide you in designing some software. First, we will begin, starting with Java installation and then knowing the object-oriented design principles.
Simple and Quick Guide for Java Installation
To get started with Java, you'll need to install the Java Development Kit (JDK), which provides everything necessary to running Java. While I won’t provide each step tutorial here, I can show you to some resources that will guide you through the process:
- Oracle's Official JDK Download Page: This page offers the latest version of the JDK and installation instructions.
- OpenJDK Installation Guide: OpenJDK is an open-source alternative to Oracle's JDK and is widely used in the industry.
- How to Install Java (with Screenshots): This tutorial provides a comprehensive guide with visuals for installing Java on Windows systems.
Once you've installed the JDK, you can verify the installation by creating your first "Hello World" program. Here’s a resource that offers a visual walkthrough: Java Hello World Tutorial. First Program | Hello World | Java Tutorial - YouTube
Object-Oriented Design Principles also known as OOP
Knowing object-oriented design principles is important for making codes. These principles are the backbone of Java and maintain the quality of your software. Here are some concepts:
Encapsulation: Encapsulation is the bundling the data and the methods that operate on the data into a single unit. This principle helps to protect the data and reduce complexity.
Abstraction: Abstraction involves hiding complex details and showing only the essential features of an object.
Inheritance: Inheritance is a mechanism where one class inherits properties and behaviors from another class. This principle promotes code reusability and establishes a natural hierarchy between classes.
Composition: Composition involves building objects from simpler ones. It is a design principle where a class is composed of one or more objects of other classes, it provides better flexibility and reusability.

By review and learning more OOP, you will become well verse in Java as a beginner like me.
