📑 Important Java Programs for ICSE 2026
// Example: Armstrong Number
import java.util.*;
class Armstrong {
public static void main(String args[]) {
Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
int n = sc.nextInt(), sum=0, temp=n;
while(n>0){
int d=n%10;
sum+=d*d*d;
n/=10;
}
if(sum==temp) System.out.println("Armstrong");
else System.out.println("Not Armstrong");
}
}
- Palindrome / Prime number check
- Bubble Sort / Selection Sort
- Vowel and Consonant count in a string
- Binary Search on sorted array
- File handling – word count, copy file
💡 Success Story
Aditya, a Class 10 student, scored only 68 in his prelims due to weak Java practice. After joining Amit Sir’s ICSE tuition, his confidence improved, and he scored 96 in the ICSE 2025 Board Exams. With the right guidance, you can achieve the same in 2026.
📝 Exam Strategy
- Spend 1 hour on coding, 30 minutes on theory, last 15 minutes revising.
- Always dry-run your logic before writing final code.
- Attempt easy questions first, return to tougher ones later.
- Revise Arrays, Strings, and File Handling thoroughly.
