The Von Neumann Architecture | Computer architecture and organisation | CAO

All computers more or less based on the same basic design, the Von Neumann Architecture!

Model for designing and building computers, based on the following three characteristics:

1)The computer consists of four main sub-systems:

•Memory

•ALU (Arithmetic/Logic Unit)

•Control Unit

•Input/Output System (I/O)

2)Program is stored in memory during execution.

3)Program instructions are executed sequentially.

Vector class example in JAVA | Explanatory code

The Vector class implements a growable array of objects.The size of a Vector can grow or shrink.
You can insert or delete element from the Vector.
Following is a self explanatory program to explain working of Vectors in JAVA

import java.util.*;

class VectorTest{

public static void main(String[] args){

Vector

Why do we make main function static in JAVA ?

main is the first function to be executed when execution of program starts. In JAVA everything that exists is part of object. main function is declared static so that it can act as class method and can be called without creation of any object. As there are no object when execution has just started so it is required to make it static.

It is convention to make main method public so that it can be assessed from anywhere (Outside class).

Arguments passed in main is String args[] which is actually command line argument and can be passed from command prompt when you run your program using syntax java ProgName ListOfArguments
