(8 Questions)

  • Q1. Pillars of Object Oriented Programming. Real Life Example of Pillars of OOPS.
  • Ans. 

    Pillars of OOP are Inheritance, Encapsulation, Abstraction, and Polymorphism. Real life example: Vehicles.

    • Inheritance: Car and Bike classes inheriting from Vehicle class.

    • Encapsulation: Data hiding in a class to protect it from outside interference.

    • Abstraction: Using a remote control to operate a TV without knowing its internal workings.

    • Polymorphism: Overloading a method with different parameters in a class.

  • Answered by AI
  • Q2. Is Function Overloading the Only Example of Compile Time Polymorphism ?
  • Ans. 

    No, Function Overloading is not the only example of Compile Time Polymorphism.

    • Function Templates are another example of Compile Time Polymorphism where a single function can operate on different data types.

    • Operator Overloading is also an example of Compile Time Polymorphism where operators can be overloaded to work with different data types.

    • Static Polymorphism achieved through method overloading is another example of C

  • Q3. Difference Between Arrays and LinkedLists. Cons and Pros of Using Them. Which Out of Both Would be Preferable in Different Situations ?
  • Ans. 

    Arrays store elements in contiguous memory locations, while LinkedLists store elements in nodes with pointers to the next element.

    • Arrays have constant time access to elements using index, while LinkedLists have O(n) access time as they need to traverse from the beginning.

    • Arrays have fixed size, while LinkedLists can dynamically grow and shrink in size.

    • Arrays are better for random access and search operations, while Lin...

    • Insertion: Add a new node at the beginning, end, or at a specific position in the LinkedList.

    • Deletion: Remove a node by updating references to skip over it.

    • Reversing: Traverse the LinkedList and reverse the links between nodes.

    • Sorting: Implement a s...

  • Q5. Questions Based on Binary Trees , Binary Search Trees and Recursion.
  • Q6. Reverse a String without Using Any Loop or Using Any Other Data Structure.
  • Ans. 

    Use recursion to reverse the string without using loops or other data structures.

    • Create a recursive function that takes the string as input.

    • In the function, check if the string is empty or has only one character, return the string in that case.

    • Otherwise, call the function recursively with the substring excluding the first character and concatenate the first character at the end.

  • Answered by AI
  • Q7. Program to Find the Maximum Occurring Number in an Array. Which Data Structure can be Used for Making the Code More Efficient ?
  • Ans. 

    Use a hashmap to store frequency of each number in the array for efficient retrieval of maximum occurring number.

    • Use a hashmap to store the frequency of each number in the array.

    • Iterate through the array and update the frequency count in the hashmap.

    • Find the number with the highest frequency in the hashmap to get the maximum occurring number.

  • Q8. What is Multi-Threading in Java ? What are Generics ?
  • Ans. 

    Multi-Threading in Java allows multiple threads to execute concurrently. Generics in Java enable type-safe collections and classes.

    • Multi-Threading in Java allows for concurrent execution of multiple threads.

    • Generics in Java enable type-safe collections and classes by allowing the use of parameterized types.
