Learning Java Day02

6. Method

Method: a piece of code associated with a class or object to perform a task.

Benefit: improve the reusability and readability of the code.

6.1 how to define a method

The format:

method modifier + return type modifier +method name ( type modifier +arguments ,…) {

//method’s context;

return +return value;

}

public class Getmax {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int a = 33;
        int b = 66;
        int max = getMax(a,b);//call the "getMax" method to get the maximum
        System.out.println(max);// print the maximum
    }   
    
    public static int getMax(int i,int j){// define the Getmax method
        if(i>j){
            return i;
        }else
            return j;
    }
}

note:

the return’s value and the arguments can be the reference data-type. Such as Classes, Interface, arrays, Strings,etc.
the return’s type can be void.
the construct method does not have any return’s type(include the “void”) .

6.2 method’s overload

method’s overload: in a class ,there are some methods which have same name; their args have same number ,type and order. We call it overload. As bellows shows:

public class Add3 {
    public static int add1(int a,int b,int c){
        return a+b+c;
    }
    public static double add1(double double b,double c){
        return a+b+c;
    }
}

benefit of overload: we only remember one method’s name can solve different issue.

note: Overload is not related to the return value’s type.

// this is not the method overload.
// this is not the method overload.
public class Add3 {
    public static int add1(int a,int b,int c){
        return a+b+c;
    }
    // this is not the method overload.
    public static double add1(int a,int b,int c){
        return (double)(a+b+c);
    }
}

7. java memory model

Heap Memory, stack memory, Method Area.

VM stack: While running methods the results and local variables are stored in the stack memory.

Q: when and how to define the memory of stack?

A: You can define the size of your stack in linking time.As I know, windows app default stack size is 2MB. You can change the size of stack in your project setting. But when App is built, stack size is fixed.And OS would set guard page for stack overflow. If any operation try to access the guard page would trigger EXCEPTION.
heap: The Java objects are stored in this area. and after JDK7, the runtime constant pool is store in the heap,too.
method area: the .class file will be loaded to this area. This area stores the non-static method() and variable in classes.
