Installing Java Development Kit (JDK)

Installing Java Development Kit (JDK)

Step 1: Download JDK:

  1. Go to the Oracle JDK download page: https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase/javase-jdk8-downloads.html (Note: The link might change over time, so it's best to search for "Oracle JDK download" if the link is no longer valid.)
  2. Accept the license agreement by clicking on the checkbox.
  3. Download the appropriate JDK version for your Windows operating system. Choose the latest version available (e.g., JDK 8, JDK 11, JDK 16, etc.). Make sure to select the correct architecture (32-bit or 64-bit) based on your computer's configuration.

Step 2: Run the JDK installer:

  1. Locate the downloaded JDK installer file (it will be an executable file with a .exe extension) and double-click on it to start the installation.

Step 3: Set up JDK:

  1. The installation wizard will guide you through the setup process. Follow the on-screen instructions.
  2. Choose the destination folder where you want the JDK to be installed. The default location is usually fine, but you can change it if you prefer.
  3. Complete the installation process by clicking "Next" or "Install."

Step 4: Verify the installation:

  1. Once the installation is complete, open the Command Prompt (Windows Terminal) by pressing the Windows key, typing "cmd," and hitting Enter.
  2. In the Command Prompt, type java -version and press Enter. This will display the installed Java version if the installation was successful.
  3. Additionally, type javac -version and press Enter to verify that the Java compiler (javac) is also installed.
That's it! You have now successfully installed the Java Development Kit (JDK) on your Windows computer. You can start developing Java applications and running Java programs on your machine. Remember that when you start writing and running Java code, you'll need a text editor or an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) like Eclipse or IntelliJ IDEA to make your development process smoother.I followed the above instructions and confirmed the JDK installation as shown below:

Part 8:What is DOM Manipulation in JavaScript?

What is DOM Manipulation in JavaScript? Welcome to Part 8 of our JavaScript Step by Step series! In this part, we will find out, what is DOM Manipulation in JavaScript? DOM (Document Object Model) manipulation using JavaScript is a programming interface for web documents. It represents the page so that programs can change the document structure, style, and content. What is the DOM? The DOM is a tree-like structure that represents the HTML of a web page. Each element in the HTML document is represented as a node in the DOM tree. These nodes are organized in a hierarchical structure, with the document itself at the root and the HTML elements as its branches and leaves. Here's a simple example of the DOM tree structure for a basic HTML document: <! DOCTYPE html > < html > < head >         < title > My Web Page </ title > </ head > < body >         < h1 > Hello, World! </ h1 >      ...

Learning JavaScript Step by Step - Part 7: Objects

Part 7: Objects in JavaScript What Are Objects? Objects in JavaScript are collections of key-value pairs. They're used to represent entities with properties and behaviors. Here's how you create an object: let person = {     name : " Alice " ,     age : 30 ,     isStudent : false }; 1. Curly braces {} define an object. 2. Each property is a key-value pair separated by a colon. Accessing Object Properties You can access object properties using dot notation or bracket notation: console . log (person . name) ; // Output: "Alice" console . log (person[ " age " ]) ; // Output: 30 Modifying Object Properties To change the value of an object property, simply assign a new value to it: person . age = 31 ; console . log (person . age) ; // Output: 31 Adding and Deleting Properties You can add new properties to an object or delete existing ones as needed: person . country = " USA " ; // Adding a new property delete person . isStudent ; /...

Learning JavaScript Step by Step - Part 6: Arrays

Part 6: Arrays in JavaScript Welcome back to our JavaScript learning journey! In this part, we'll dive into one of the essential data structures: arrays. These are fundamental building blocks in JavaScript that enable you to work with collections of data and create more complex data structures. Creating Arrays An array is a collection of values, which can be of any data type, stored in a single variable. There are two methods of creating arrays in JavaScript: Method 1: Using Array Literals In this method, you directly list the elements you want to include within the array.This is the most common and convenient way to create an array. You define the array by enclosing a list of values inside square brackets []. Example: / Creating an array of numbers let numbers = [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 ] ; // Creating an array of strings let fruits = [ " apple " , " banana " , " cherry " ] ; // Creating an array of mixed data types let mixedArray = [ 1 , ...

Learn JavaScript Step by Step Part 4 Control Flow

Part 4: Control Flow in JavaScript Welcome to the next part of our JavaScript journey! In this segment, we'll explore control flow in JavaScript. Control flow allows you to make decisions in your code and execute specific blocks of code based on conditions. It's a fundamental concept in programming. At the end of this blog you will get a quiz to test your understanding of this topic. Let's dive in! Conditional Statements: Making Decisions Conditional statements are used to make decisions in your code. They allow your program to take different actions depending on whether a certain condition is true or false. 1. If Statement:  The if statement is the most basic conditional statement. It executes a block of code if a specified condition evaluates to true. let age = 18 ; if (age >= 18 ) {     console . log ( " You are an adult. " ) ; } If you run the code in VS Code, the output will be: Output: You are an adult. 2. Else Statement:  You can use the else stateme...

Learn JavaScript Step by Step Part 5 Functions

Part 5: Functions in JavaScript In this part, we'll dive into the exciting world of functions in JavaScript. Functions are like superpowers for your code. They allow you to encapsulate reusable pieces of logic, making your code more organized, efficient, and easier to maintain. We'll explore what functions are, how to declare them, and how to use them effectively. What Is a Function? Imagine a function as a mini-program within your program. It's a self-contained block of code that performs a specific task or calculation. Functions are designed to be reusable, so you can call them whenever you need that specific task done without writing the same code over and over. Declaring a Function: To declare a function, you use the function keyword followed by a name for your function. Here's a simple function that adds two numbers: function addNumbers ( a , b ) {     let result = a + b ;     return result ; } function: The keyword that tells JavaScript you're creating...
