This repository was created as part of a foundational programming course. It focuses on essential programming principles like data types, control structures, loops, methods, and object-oriented programming concepts. The exercises are designed to build proficiency in Java programming step by step.

• Hands-On Exercises: Includes practical exercises to reinforce learning.
• Organised Structure: Files are clearly separated into source code and compiled binaries.
• Beginner-Friendly: Designed for those new to Java programming.
• Real-World Examples: Exercises demonstrate concepts through relatable scenarios.
• Extensible: Contributions are welcome to expand and improve the content.

The repository contains two main folders:

• src: Contains the source code files (.java) for all exercises. Editable and viewable in any text editor or IDE.
• bin: Contains the compiled class files (.class). These are the executable versions of the programs.

Each folder includes the following exercises:

1. ArithmeticCalculations
2. CelsiusToFahrenheit
3. CuboidVolume
4. FahrenheitToCelsius
5. InchesToCentimeters
6. MetersToInches
7. RectangleArea
8. StringOutput
9. UserInputCalculations

To work with this repository, ensure the following are set up:

1. Java Development Kit (JDK): Version 8 or above.
   • Download JDK
2. IDE/Text Editor: Any Java-compatible IDE (e.g., IntelliJ IDEA, Eclipse, NetBeans) or a basic text editor.
3. Basic knowledge of how to compile and run Java programs.

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/nurulashraf/ur-fop-jav-ex1.git

2. Navigate to the repository folder:

   cd ur-fop-jav-ex1

3. Open the src folder in your IDE or text editor to view and edit the source code.

4. To run an exercise, navigate to the src folder and compile the desired .java file:

   javac ArithmeticCalculations.java

   Then run the compiled program:

   java ArithmeticCalculations

5. Use the bin folder to directly run the compiled .class files if needed.

The repository also includes a PDF file named Questions.pdf, which provides the requirements and descriptions for each exercise. This document serves as a guide to understand what each program is supposed to achieve. Refer to this file to get a clear idea of the objectives and expected outputs for each task.
