Need Insights – Choosing Between Companies
Hi all, Currently have offers from Capgemini, Tech Mahindra, LTIMindTree, Zen&Art, CitiusTech, Nagarro & Persistent. Before making a decision, I need some clarity: 1. Do you get admin access on laptop or need IT for every install? 2. Are office hours flexible or fixed 9 AM login? 3. Is 9 hrs of active laptop time mandatory? 4. What's the leave policy — casual or strict approval? 5. Do projects use the latest technologies or older versions? Thanks in advance!

A Java Developer was asked
Q. Explain the principles of Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) in Java.
Ans. 

OOP in Java is a programming paradigm based on objects, enabling modular, reusable, and organized code through four main principles.

  • Encapsulation: Bundling data and methods, e.g., using private variables and public getters/setters.

  • Inheritance: Creating new classes from existing ones, e.g., class Dog extends Animal.

  • Polymorphism: Allowing methods to do different things based on the object, e.g., method overriding.

  • Ab...

A Java Developer was asked
Q. Explain polymorphism in Java.
Ans. 

Polymorphism in Java allows methods to perform differently based on the object that invokes them, enhancing flexibility and reusability.

  • Types of polymorphism: Compile-time (method overloading) and runtime (method overriding).

  • Example of method overloading: Same method name with different parameters.

  • Example of method overriding: Subclass provides a specific implementation of a method already defined in its superclas...

A Java Developer was asked
Q. What are the SOLID principles?
Ans. 

SOLID principles are five design principles aimed at making software designs more understandable, flexible, and maintainable.

  • S - Single Responsibility Principle: A class should have one reason to change. Example: A class handling user data should not also handle logging.

  • O - Open/Closed Principle: Software entities should be open for extension but closed for modification. Example: Use interfaces to add new features...

  • Q1. What is singleton
  • Q2. Difference between arraylist and linkedlist
  • Ans. 

    ArrayList and LinkedList are both implementations of the List interface in Java, differing in performance and memory usage.

    • ArrayList is backed by a dynamic array, while LinkedList uses a doubly linked list structure.

    • ArrayList provides faster random access (O(1)) due to its array nature, e.g., list.get(5).

    • LinkedList excels in insertions and deletions (O(1)) at both ends, e.g., list.addFirst(value).

    • ArrayList has a fixed ...
