JAVA

Overview

Java is an object oriented programming language that is used to create software for multiple platforms. For more details please click Reference 1.

JVM

JVM stands for Java Virtual Machine. It translates Java bytecode into native instructions. Once translated these bytecodes and interact with an operating system. If a system doesn't have JVM then the system won't be able to convert Java bytecodes.

Note

  • Java is not considered as pure Object Oriented Programming Language because several OOP features are not satisfied by Java. Like operator overloading, multiple inheritance etc...
  • Moreover we are depending on primitive data types which are non-objects.

HashMap, TreeMap and LinkedHashMap difference

Image
Difference HashMap and LinkedHashMap contains data in key value pair. TreeMap also contains data in key value pair but it is sorted according to natural ordering (ascending order). Map<Integer, String> codeCityHashMap = new HashMap<Integer, String>(); codeCityHashMap.put(11, "Delhi"); codeCityHashMap.put(22, "Mumbai"); codeCityHashMap.put(33, "Kolkata"); codeCityHashMap.put(44, "Chennai"); Map<Integer, String> codeCityLinkedHashMap = new LinkedHashMap<Integer, String>(); codeCityLinkedHashMap.put(11, "Delhi"); codeCityLinkedHashMap.put(22, "Mumbai"); codeCityLinkedHashMap.put(33, "Kolkata"); codeCityLinkedHashMap.put(44, "Chennai"); Map<Integer, String> codeCityTreeMap = new TreeMap<Integer, String>(); codeCityTreeMap.put(44, "Chennai"); codeCityTreeMap.put(11, "Delhi"); codeCityTreeMap.put(33, "Kolkata"); codeCityTreeMap.put(22, "Mumbai...

Collections in Java

Image
Overview Array An Array is an indexed collection of fixed number of Homogenous data elements. The main advantage of arrays is we can represent multiple values by using single variable so that readability of the code will be improved.  Limitations of Arrays Arrays are fixed in size i.e. once we create an array there is no chance of increasing or decreasing the size based on our requirement. Due to this, to use arrays concept compulsory we should know the size in advance which may not be possible always. Array can hold only homogenous data type elements. Student[] students = new Student[ 1000 ] ; students[ 0 ] = new Student( "Vim Payne" , 18 , 20 , 540 ) ; /* Prompts a compile time error: Incompatible types found: Teacher required: Student */ students[ 1 ] = new Teacher( "Vim Payne" , 18 , "St. Theressa School" , "9A" ) ; We can solve the above problem by using Object type arrays. Object[] students = new Object[ 1000 ] ; students[ 0 ] = new...

OOPS Concept in Java

Image
Overview Most import aspects of OOPS Data Hiding.  Outside person can't access our internal data directly or our internal data should not go out directly, this OOP feature is nothing but Data Hiding. After validation or authentication outside person can access our internal data. By declaring data member (variable) as private we can achieve Data Hiding. e.g. public class Person { final private String name ; final private int age ; public Person (String name , int age) { this . name = name ; this . age = age ; } public String getName () { // Validation return name ; } public int getAge () { // Validation return age ; } } The main advantage of Data Hiding is security.  e.g.  After providing proper username and password, we can able to access our Gmail inbox information. Even though we are valid customer of the bank, we can able to access our account information but we can't access other's accou...
