8 Interview questions

A Java Developer Intern was asked
Q. What is the difference between RDBMS and NoSQL?
Ans. 

RDBMS is a relational database management system that uses structured data, while NoSQL is a non-relational database that uses unstructured data.

  • RDBMS stores data in tables with predefined schemas, while NoSQL stores data in various formats like key-value, document, columnar, or graph.

  • RDBMS supports ACID (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, Durability) properties, while NoSQL sacrifices some of these properties for...

A Java Developer Intern was asked
Q. How do you create an immutable class in Java?
Ans. 

An immutable class in Java is a class whose state cannot be modified after it is created.

  • Declare the class as final to prevent inheritance

  • Declare all fields as private and final

  • Do not provide any setter methods

  • Ensure that any mutable objects within the class are not accessible or modifiable

  • Provide only getter methods to access the fields

  • If a field is mutable, return a copy of it instead of the original object

A Java Developer Intern was asked
Q. What are the differences between HashMap and LinkedHashMap?
Ans. 

HashMap is an unordered collection while LinkedHashMap maintains insertion order.

  • HashMap uses hash table to store key-value pairs.

  • LinkedHashMap uses doubly-linked list to maintain the insertion order.

  • HashMap provides faster access and retrieval time complexity.

  • LinkedHashMap provides predictable iteration order based on insertion order.

  • Example: HashMap - {1=A, 2=B, 3=C}, LinkedHashMap - {1=A, 2=B, 3=C}

A Java Developer Intern was asked
Q. How do you create a singleton class in a multi-threaded environment?
Ans. 

To create a singleton class in a multi-threaded environment, we can use double-checked locking or synchronized block.

  • Use double-checked locking to minimize the use of synchronization and improve performance.

  • In double-checked locking, check if the instance is null, then synchronize the block and create the instance.

  • Use volatile keyword to ensure visibility of the instance across threads.

  • Alternatively, use synchroni...

A Java Developer Intern was asked
Q. Why do we have a wait method in the Object class?
Ans. 

The wait method in the Object class is used for inter-thread communication and synchronization.

  • wait() is used to make a thread wait until another thread notifies it.

  • It is used in multi-threaded applications to coordinate the execution of threads.

  • wait() releases the lock held by the current thread, allowing other threads to acquire it.

  • It is typically used in conjunction with notify() and notifyAll() methods.

  • Example...

A Java Developer Intern was asked
Q. How do you implement a circular linked list in Java?
Ans. 

A circular linked list is a linked list where the last node points back to the first node, forming a loop.

  • Create a Node class with data and next pointer

  • Initialize the head and tail pointers to null

  • When adding a node, if the list is empty, set head and tail to the new node

  • If the list is not empty, set the next pointer of the tail to the new node and update the tail

  • To traverse the circular linked list, start from th...

A Java Developer Intern was asked
Q. Are Generics only limited to collections?
Ans. 

No, generics are not limited to collections.

  • Generics can be used with any type of class or interface, not just collections.

  • They provide type safety and allow for code reusability.

  • For example, generics can be used with classes like ArrayList, LinkedList, HashMap, etc.

  • They can also be used with interfaces like Comparable, Iterator, etc.

A Java Developer Intern was asked
Q. What is normalization?
Ans. 

Normalization is the process of organizing data in a database to eliminate redundancy and improve data integrity.

  • Normalization helps in reducing data redundancy by breaking down a database into multiple tables.

  • It ensures that each table has a single purpose and avoids data duplication.

  • Normalization follows a set of rules called normal forms, such as First Normal Form (1NF), Second Normal Form (2NF), etc.
