UML (Unified Modeling Language) is a unified modeling language. I learned about UML from a wonderful forum story by alex8894 Review of CASE tools for constructing UML diagrams. The book “ UML for Java Programmers ” by Robert Cecil Martin, as far as I understand, uses UML 1 standards, since the current UML came into effect after its publication. However, I believe that the basic principles of constructing such block diagrams remained without significant changes. Teaching example from lecture:

// файл Main.java
public class Main
{
private static void printRes(MyResult r)
{
if(r.hasResult())
{
System.out.print("Результат исполнения: ");
System.out.println(r.getResult());
}
else
{
System.out.println("Результат отсутствует");
}
}
public static void main(String[] args)
{
MyCalculator c1 = new MyCalculator('/');
MyResult r = c1.calculate(4, 2);
printRes(r);
r = c1.calculate(40, 13);
printRes(r);
r = c1.calculate(1, 0);
printRes(r);
c1 = new MyCalculator('^');
r = c1.calculate(2, 25);
printRes(r);
}
}
// файл MyCalculator.java
public class MyCalculator
{
private class ResultClass implements MyResult
{
boolean valid;
int result = 0;
public ResultClass()
{
valid = false;
}
public ResultClass(int result)
{
this.result = result;
valid = true;
}
public int getResult()
{
return result;
}
public boolean hasResult()
{
return valid;
}
}
private char operation;
public MyCalculator(char operation)
{
this.operation = operation;
}
public MyResult calculate(int a, int b)
{
MyResult res;
switch(operation)
{
case '*':
res = new ResultClass(a*b);
break;
case '/':
if(b!=0)
{
res = new ResultClass(a/b);
}
else
{
res = new ResultClass();
}
break;
case '+':
res = new ResultClass(a+b);
break;
case '-':
res = new ResultClass(a-b);
break;
default:
res = new ResultClass();
break;
}
return res;
}
}
// файл MyResult.java
public interface MyResult
{
public int getResult();
public boolean hasResult();
}
And, using one of the free versions of the programs, I quickly drew the following block diagram of this program on a smartphone (with errors, of course, since I just started to become interested in UML): It would be interesting to see and compare with what UML diagram/diagram of the same Intellij IDEA will build the programs.
