#FF000000#FFFFFFFFScrollView ExampleKotlin is a statically typed,
general-purpose programming language developed
by JetBrains, that has built world-class IDEs
like IntelliJ IDEA, PhpStorm, Appcode, etc.
It was first introduced by JetBrains in 2011
and a new language for the JVM. Kotlin is
object-oriented language, and a “better language”
than Java, but still be fully interoperable
with Java code. Kotlin is sponsored by Google,
announced as one of the official languages for
Android Development in 2017.
Advantages of Kotlin language:
Easy to learn – Basic is almost similar to java.
If anybody worked in java then easily understand
in no time. Kotlin is multi-platform – Kotlin is
supported by all IDEs of java so you can write
your program and execute them on any machine
which supports JVM. It’s much safer than Java.
It allows using the Java frameworks and libraries
in your new Kotlin projects by using advanced
frameworks without any need to change the whole
project in Java. Kotlin programming language,
including the compiler, libraries and all the
tooling is completely free and open source and
available on github. Here is the link for
Github https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin
Applications of Kotlin language:
You can use Kotlin to build Android Application.
Kotlin can also compile to JavaScript, and making
it available for the frontend. It is also designed
to work well for web development and server-side
development.Kotlin is a statically typed, general-purpose

is a special member function that is invoked when
an object of the class is created primarily to initialize
variables or properties. A class needs to have a constructor
and if we do not declare a constructor, then the compiler
generates a default constructor.
Kotlin has two types of constructors –
Primary Constructor
Secondary Constructor
A class in Kotlin can have at most one primary
constructor, and one or more secondary constructors.
The primary constructor
initializes the class, while the secondary
constructor is used
to initialize the class and introduce some extra logic.
Explanation:
When we create the object add for the class then
the values 5 and 6
passes to the constructor. The constructor
parameters a and b
initialize with the parameters 5 and 6 respectively.
The local variable c contains the sum of variables.
In the main, we access the property of
constructor using ${add.c}.
Explanation:
Here, we have initialized the constructor
parameters with some
default values emp_id = 100 and emp_name = “abc”.
When the object emp is created we passed the values for
both the parameters so it prints those values.
But, at the time of object emp2 creation,
we have not passed
the emp_name so initializer block uses
the default values and
print to the standard output.
