ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

It is said that behind the accomplishment of any effort there are some dedicated individuals who give their best to get the job done. During the course of my project I came across many personalities and without their help and guidance I would not have been able to complete and present my project report in this form. First of all, I would like to express my deepest gratitude and sincere thanks to Mr. Vijay Thadani for his proper guidance and invaluable suggestions that were very much the heart and soul of the project. Secondly I would like to express my extreme thanks to my Project Manager Mrs. Rakshindha kumari who provided me the complete details of the project. He made me understand the exact requirements of our clients and also supervised my project throughout the six weeks. Last but not the least, I would like to thank my college authorities and all those who have been involved in the completion of this report.

PREFACE

Excellence is an attitude that the whole of the human race is born with. It is the environment that makes sure that whether the result of this attitude is visible or otherwise. The well planned, properly executed and evaluated industrial training help a lot in including the good work culture. It provides linkage between the student and industry in order to develop the awareness of industrial approach to problem solving based on broad understanding of the process and of operation of an organization. During this period, the students get their first real hand experience on working in the real environment. Most of the theoretical knowledge that they have gained during the course of their studies is put to test here. Apart from this the students get the opportunity to learn the latest technology, which immensely help them in their career. This also benefits the organization as many students doing their projects perform very well and henceforth are offered a job in the same company. I had the opportunity to have the real practical experience, which has increased my sphere of knowledge to a great extent. Now, I am better equipped to handle the real problems effectively and efficiently. During the training period, I learnt how an actual project progresses, what sort of problems actually arise during the developments of such real time projects, how to design and produce quality products and so on. I really had great experience working with NIIT Technologies.

Innovation has remained a growth catalyst for NIIT, leading us to think out-of-the-box, and bring to market products and training solutions that have often been global firsts. We have constantly transformed unique ideas into on-the-ground solutions that bring real benefits to learners. Our Franchisee network has earned us the soubriquet of McDonalds of the Training sector. One of the innovative solutions offered by NIIT is the synchronous learning based Executive Management programs from Indias top B schools through NIIT Imperia. The Industry-endorsed GNIIT curriculum has proved to be a trailblazing 12-month Professional Practice offering. Another epitome of novelty by NIIT was a breakthrough innovation in teaching strategies in schools for which it was honoured by UNESCO for innovation in ICT in Education. The leading Global Talent Development Corporation is committed to create a large pool of well trained, industry ready, worldclass IT professionals through its presence in 40 countries. The unique NIIT Inside model allows us to offer industry acclaimed IT training programs in partnership with Universities and Colleges in countries like China and Nigeria. Our focus and investments in Research have led to initiatives that have earned us global acclaim. The HiWELs revolutionary experiment of Minimally Invasive Education launched in 1999 and termed as Hole in the Wall by media, brings learning to the disadvantaged. The experiment proved that any set of children can acquire computing skills through incidental learning and access to suitable computing facilities, even in the absence of a direct input. Besides India, Hole in the Wall kiosks dot the landscape of countries such as Egypt, Vietnam, Uganda and South Africa, among others. Following the tradition of innovation, NIIT conceptualized Model District Learning Center at Chhindwara, to provide high quality IT training for graduates from semi-rural towns. Leadership in Global Talent Development In todays globalised, fast-changing world, the importance of Global Talent Development can not be underscored. With time, the demand for skilled talent is expected to grow faster. The existing skills shortages, along with issues such as the quality, reach and relevance of our education system, have huge ramifications for the Indian economy. However,

18

demographics are in Indias favour. As per a BCG study, by 2020 the world will have a shortage of 47 million working people and the Indian workforce will have a surplus of 56 million people. Whats needed is to develop skills, so that this surplus manpower is equipped to meet the needs of talent across geographies. Recognizing this opportunity NIITs mission is to attain leadership in Global Talent Development, by launching innovative, market-driven products and enhancing its reach globally. The Global Talent Development Corporation had set up its first overseas education centre in 1991 and today reaches out to 5 million learners across 40 countries. Our global presence facilitates cutting-edge Learning Solutions to Fortune 100 companies, universities, technology majors, training corporations and publishing houses through our subsidiary Element K. Through our subsidiary, CognitiveArts, we offer nearly three decades of experience and represent the highest achievement in research, education and experience in learning design architecture having developed over 300 innovative Experience Learning Solutions for major corporations and institutions.

Notepad is a basic Windows utility. Its used for creating and/or editing unformatted text (.TXT) files. It has limitations, but its surprisingly useful - so much so that I always put a shortcut to it on my desktop. Notepad strips all formatting from text that is pasted into it. Boldface, italics, hyperlinks...all of it disappears, and you get the plain text instead. When youre copying and pasting in some applications (particularly Microsoft Office), theres a "Paste Special - Unformatted" option. Unfortunately this often fails to remove formatting, and the result can screw up your documents. By pasting the text into Notepad first, and then copying and pasting that Notepad text into your new document, you absolutely remove any and all text formatting - guaranteed clean text. Notepad is also useful for replacing characters which are wildcards to most Windows applications. For example, the asterisk is used as a general wildcard in most Windows applications (again, Office springs to mind). If you have a file which contains asterisks and you want to delete or replace them with a "Replace All", youre pretty much out of luck in Excel and Word. Searching and replacing * with nothing will delete all of your text. The same thing happens with the question mark, which is a wildcard that represents a single character (as opposed to the *, which can represent any number of characters). But Notepad doesnt use wildcards. So if you take your text and paste it into Notepad, you can search and replace all the *s or ?s, and then paste the text back into your original file. Of course, all other text formatting will have been removed too! But if you work with large Excel files (as I do) and sometimes get data with asterisks sprinkled throughout, Notepad is a godsend. Notepad is also handy to store a quick copy of any text. For example, say that Im writing a comment on a site that isnt always reliable. Or say that Im concerned that my connection to the net might crash. Its easy to pop open Notepad and throw a copy of my comment into it before hitting the "Submit" button. That way if something goes wrong, I

22

have a copy saved. And Notepad starts up more more quickly and uses far fewer system resources than Word. Because Notepad makes no changes to files that it opens (unless youmake changes, of course), its useful for examining and editing files which could be screwed up by more advanced programs. It can be used on HTML code quite nicely, for example. Likewise, if you have a file of unknown type because the extension has been deleted, opening it in Notepad is a good way to make sure that you dont screw it up merely by opening it. That way, you can example the contents of the file and possibly figure out what type of file it actually is. The file type name can often be found amongst the code at the beginning or end of the file. Older versions of Notepad did have a file size limitation. The WordPad utility was eventually added to Windows because of this; it has more features and can handle larger files. Notepad itself can now open and edit files of virtually any size, I believe (within hardware limitations, of course). Personally, I use Notepad every day, and havent used WordPad in years. As for whether or not you "need" it...well, it IS a basic Windows utility. I certainly wouldnt delete it, if I were you! But youll have to decide for yourself if you want to make use of it.

Notepad supports both left-to-right and right-to-left based languages, and one can alternate between these viewing formats by using the right or left Ctrl+Shift keys to go to right-to-left format or left-to-right format, respectively.

Unlike WordPad, Notepad does not treat newlines in Unix- or Mac-style text files correctly.

23

Early versions of Notepad offered only the most basic functions, such as finding text. Newer versions of Windows include an updated version of Notepad with a search and replace function (Ctrl + H), as well as Ctrl + F for search and similar keyboard shortcuts. Notepad makes use of a built-in window class named "EDIT". In older versions such as those included with Windows 95, Windows 98,Windows Me and Windows 3.1, there is a 64k limit on the size of the file being edited, an operating system limit of the EDIT class. Up to Windows 95, Fixedsys was the only available font for Notepad. Windows NT 4.0 and 98 introduced the ability to change this font. As ofWindows 2000, the default font was changed to Lucida Console. The font setting, however, only affects how the text is shown to the user, not how the file is saved to disk. Up to Windows Me, there were almost no keyboard shortcuts and no line-counting feature. Starting with Windows 2000, shortcuts for common tasks like new, open and save were added, as well as a status-bar with a line counter (available only when wordwrap is disabled). In the Windows NT-based versions of Windows, Notepad can edit traditional 8-bit text files as well as Unicode text files (both UTF-8 and UTF-16, and in case of UTF-16, both little-endian and big-endian). Notepad also has a simple built-in logging function. Each time a file that starts with .LOG is opened, the program inserts a text timestamp on the last line of the file.[1][2] Notepad accepts text from the Windows clipboard. When clipboard data with multiple formats is pasted into Notepad, the program will only accept text in the CF_TEXT format.[3] This is useful for stripping embedded font type and style codes from formatted text, such as when copying text from a web page and pasting into an email message or other WYSIWYG text editor. The formatted text is temporarily pasted into Notepad, and then immediately copied again in stripped format to be pasted into the other program. Simple text editors like Notepad may be used to edit text with markup, such as HTML. However, because they lack many features (such assyntax highlighting), web developers may favor more specialized editors for this purpose (see List of text editors).

24

Unicode detection The Windows NT version of Notepad, installed by default on Windows

2000 and Windows XP, has the ability to detect Unicode files even when they are missing a byte order mark. To do this, it utilizes a Windows API function called IsTextUnicode(). However, this function is imperfect, incorrectly identifying some all-lowercase ASCII text as UTF-16. As a result, Notepad interprets a file containing a phrase like "aaaa aaa aaa aaaaa" ("4-3-3-5") as two-byte Unicode text file and attempts to display it as such. If a font with support for Chinese is installed, nine Chinese characters are displayed; otherwise, it will display squares instead of Chinese characters. A few people misinterpreted this issue for an easter egg.[citation needed] Many phrases which fit the pattern (including this app can break, Bush hid the facts and acre vai pra globo) appeared on the web as hoaxes. Windows expert Raymond Chen correctly attributed it to the Unicode detection algorithm.[6] This issue has been resolved in the Windows Vista and Windows 7 versions of Notepad. Competing software Notepad does not require a lock on the file it opens, so it can open files already opened by other processes, users, or computers, whereas WordPad cannot. Also, since Notepad lacks advanced formatting functionality, many people find its simple interface faster and easier to use for basic text operations. The MS-DOS Editor, especially as updated in Windows 95, where it became an MDI application, also provides many features never offered by Notepad. There are many third-party replacements for Notepad with additional functionality, including both free software (e.g. Notepad++ and Notepad2) and freeware (e.g. TED Notepad). Notepad lacks many features available in other text editors, such as Unixformat newlines, code folding, regular expressions, macros, block-select, and MDI.

PLATFORM DESCRIPTION
JAVA:
Java is a programming language originally developed by James Gosling at Sun Microsystems(which is now a subsidiary of Oracle Corporation) and released in 1995 as a core component of Sun Microsystems' Java platform. The language derives much of its syntax from C and C++ but has a simpler object model and fewer low-level facilities. Java applications are typically compiledto bytecode (class file) that can run on any Java Virtual Machine (JVM) regardless of computer architecture. Java is a general-purpose, concurrent, class-based, object-oriented language that is specifically designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible. It is intended to let application developers "write once, run anywhere." Java is currently one of the most popular programming languages in use, particularly for client-server web applications.[9][10] The original and reference implementation Java compilers, virtual machines, and class librarieswere developed by Sun from 1995. As of May 2007, in compliance with the specifications of theJava Community Process, Sun relicensed most of its Java technologies under the GNU General Public License. Others have also developed alternative implementations of these Sun technologies, such as the GNU Compiler for Java, GNU Classpath, and Dalvik.

Java Platform:
One characteristic of Java is portability, which means that computer programs written in the Java language must run similarly on any hardware/operating-system platform. This is 27

achieved by compiling the Java language code to an intermediate representation called Java bytecode, instead of directly to platform-specific machine code. Java bytecode instructions are analogous to machine code, but are intended to be interpreted by a virtual machine (VM) written specifically for the host hardware. Endusers commonly use a Java Runtime Environment(JRE) installed on their own machine for standalone Java applications, or in a Web browser for Java applets. Standardized libraries provide a generic way to access host-specific features such as graphics, threading, and networking. A major benefit of using bytecode is porting. However, the overhead of interpretation means that interpreted programs almost always run more slowly than programs compiled to native executables would. Just-in-Time compilers were introduced from an early stage that compile bytecodes to machine code during runtime.

Implementations:
Sun Microsystems officially licensed the Java Standard Edition platform for Linux,
[21]

Mac OS X,[22] and Solaris. In the past Sun licensed Java to Microsoft but the license

expired without renewal.[23] Because Windows does not ship with a Java software platform, a network of third-party vendors and licensees develop them for Windows and other operating system/hardware platforms. Sun's trademark license for usage of the Java brand insists that all implementations be "compatible". This resulted in a legal dispute with Microsoft after Sun claimed that the Microsoft implementation did not support RMI or JNI and had added platform-specific features of their own. Sun sued in 1997, and in 2001 won a settlement of US$20 million, as well as a court order enforcing the terms of the license from Sun.[25] As a result, Microsoft no longer ships Java with Windows, and in recent versions of Windows, Internet Explorer cannot support Java applets without a third-party plugin. Sun, and others, have made available free Java runtime systems for those and other versions of Windows. Platform-independent Java is essential to the Java EE strategy, and an even more rigorous validation is required to certify an implementation. This environment enables portable server-side applications, such as Web services, Java Servlets, and Enterprise JavaBeans, as well as withembedded systems based on OSGi, using Embedded Java environments. 28

Through the GlassFish project, Sun is working to create a fully functional, unified open source implementation of the Java EE technologies.Sun also distributes a superset of the JRE called the Java Development Kit (commonly known as the JDK), which includes development tools such as the Java compiler, Javadoc, Jar, and debugger.

Performance:
Programs written in Java have a reputation for being slower and requiring more memory than those written in C. However, Java programs' execution speed improved significantly with the introduction of Just-in-time compilation in 1997/1998 for Java 1.1, the addition of language features supporting better code analysis (such as inner classes, StringBuffer class, optional assertions, etc.), and optimizations in the Java Virtual Machine itself, such as HotSpot becoming the default for Sun's JVM in 2000. Currently, Java 2.0 code had approximately half the performance of C code. However, Java 5.0 has been shown to run at native speeds that sometimes match and occasionally beat the speed of C and C++.Some platforms offer direct hardware support for Java; there are microcontrollers that can run Java in hardware instead of a software JVM, and ARM based processors can have hardware support for executing Java bytecode through its Jazelle option.

Automatic memory management:

Java uses an automatic garbage collector to manage memory in the object lifecycle. The programmer determines when objects are created, and the Java runtime is responsible for recovering the memory once objects are no longer in use. Once no references to an object remain, the unreachable memory becomes eligible to be freed automatically by the garbage collector. Something similar to a memory leak may still occur if a programmer's code holds a reference to an object that is no longer needed, typically when objects that are no longer needed are stored in containers that are still in use. If methods for a nonexistent object are called, a "null pointer exception" is thrown. One of the ideas behind Java's automatic memory management model is that programmers can be spared

29

the burden of having to perform manual memory management. In some languages, memory for the creation of objects is implicitly allocated on the stack, or explicitly allocated and deallocated from the heap. In the latter case the responsibility of managing memory resides with the programmer. If the program does not deallocate an object, a memory leak occurs. If the program attempts to access or deallocate memory that has already been deallocated, the result is undefined and difficult to predict, and the program is likely to become unstable and/or crash. This can be partially remedied by the use of smart pointers, but these add overhead and complexity. Note that garbage collection does not prevent "logical" memory leaks, i.e. those where the memory is still referenced but never used. Garbage collection may happen at any time. Ideally, it will occur when a program is idle. It is guaranteed to be triggered if there is insufficient free memory on the heap to allocate a new object; this can cause a program to stall momentarily. Explicit memory management is not possible in Java. Java does not support C/C++ style pointer arithmetic, where object addresses and unsigned integers (usually long integers) can be used interchangeably. This allows the garbage collector to relocate referenced objects and ensures type safety and security. As in C++ and some other object-oriented languages, variables of Java's primitive data types are not objects. Values of primitive types are either stored directly in fields (for objects) or on the stack (for methods) rather than on the heap, as commonly true for objects (but seeEscape analysis). This was a conscious decision by Java's designers for performance reasons. Because of this, Java was not considered to be a pure objectoriented programming language. However, as of Java 5.0, autoboxing enables programmers to proceed as if primitive types were instances of their wrapper class. Java contains multiple types of garbage collectors. By default, HotSpot uses the Concurrent Mark Sweep collector, also known as the CMS Garbage Collector. However, there are also several other garbage collectors that can be used to manage the Heap. For 90% of applications in Java, the CMS Garbage Collector is good enough.

Syntax:
The syntax of Java is largely derived from C++. Unlike C++, which combines the syntax for structured, generic, and object-oriented programming, Java was built almost exclusively as an object-oriented language. All code is written inside a class, and everything is an object, with the exception of the primitive data types (integers, floatingpoint numbers, boolean values, and characters), which are not classes for performance reasons. Unlike C++, Java does not support operator overloading or multiple

inheritance for classes. This simplifies the language and aids in preventing potential errors and anti-pattern design. Java uses similar commenting methods to C++. There are three different styles of comments: a single line style marked with two slashes (//), a multiple line style opened with /* and closed with */, and the Javadoc commenting style opened with /** and closed with */. The Javadoc style of commenting allows the user to run the Javadoc executable to compile documentation for the program.

Example:
// This is an example of a single line comment using two slashes /* This is an example of a multiple line comment using the slash and asterisk. This type of comment can be used to hold a lot of information or deactivate code but it is very important to remember to close the comment. */ /** * This is an example of a Javadoc comment; Javadoc can compile documentation * from this text. */ Examples: Hello world The traditional Hello world program can be written in Java as: 31

class HelloWorldApp { public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println("Hello World!"); // Display the string. } }
