Java: Java Programming Idioms
Introduction
Every programming language has its ways of writing common programming constructions. Sometimes these are used to solve particular problems in a programming language, and other times they are just the "style" that is used in that language.For example, Java has four equivalent ways to add one to an integer variable:
i = i + 1; i++; ++i; i += 1;
