Java & Path Variables in Mac OS

To know where Java is installed,

In terminal type the below

/usr/libexec/java_home -v 1.7   [or]
sudo find / -name java
To set any new path to the existing classpath in Mac,

Go to the .profile or .bash_profile found under Documents folder for each user and for example adding android path, type the below lines,
export PATH=${PATH}:<your-android-sdk-path>/platform-tools/
export PATH=${PATH}:<your-android-sdk-path>/tools
Save it. Close the file.

In terminal, type the below
echo $PATH
to confirm whether the path is listed there in environment variable.

Now close and restart the terminal and type the corresponding commands to check if it is working.
