Q3. What is the difference between functional and object-oriented programming?
Ans. 
Functional programming focuses on functions and immutability, while object-oriented programming focuses on objects and encapsulation.
• Functional programming uses pure functions that do not have side effects.

• Object-oriented programming uses objects that encapsulate data and behavior.

• In functional programming, data is immutable and functions are first-class citizens.

• In object-oriented programming, objects can have state a...read more

Q2. Explain the difference between a stack and a queue . Provide an example of when you would use each?
Ans. 
A stack is a data structure that follows the Last In First Out (LIFO) principle, while a queue follows the First In First Out (FIFO) principle.
• Stack: Last In First Out (LIFO), used for function calls, undo operations.

• Queue: First In First Out (FIFO), used for printing tasks, message queues.

Q2. What is the difference between an interface and an abstract class?
Ans. 
Interface is a contract that defines the methods a class must implement, while an abstract class can have both implemented and abstract methods.
• Interface can only have abstract methods and cannot have any implementation, while abstract class can have both abstract and implemented methods.

• A class can implement multiple interfaces but can only inherit from one abstract class.

• Interfaces are used to achieve multiple inheri...read more

It is easy to solve the Aptitude question and some identifying outputs of program.

Q1. What is class?and write a logic for object in a class.
Ans. 
A class is a blueprint for creating objects in object-oriented programming.
• A class defines the properties and behaviors of objects.

• An object is an instance of a class.

• Example: Class 'Car' can have properties like 'color' and 'model', and behaviors like 'drive' and 'stop'.

Q2. 1.swap two numbers without using temp variable 2.Reverse the string.
Ans. 
Swap two numbers without using temp variable and reverse a string without using built-in functions.
• To swap two numbers without using temp variable, use bitwise XOR operation.

• To reverse a string without using built-in functions, use two pointers approach.

• Example for swapping numbers: a = a ^ b; b = a ^ b; a = a ^ b;

• Example for reversing a string: use two pointers to swap characters from start and end of the string.

Q1. What are oops concepts in java, explain real time scenario
Ans. 
OOPs concepts in Java include inheritance, polymorphism, encapsulation, and abstraction.
• Inheritance allows a subclass to inherit properties and methods from a superclass.

• Polymorphism allows objects to take on multiple forms and behave differently based on their context.

• Encapsulation hides the implementation details of an object and only exposes necessary information.

• Abstraction allows for the creation of abstract class...read more

Q2. Uses of interface, inheritance
Ans. 
Interfaces define contracts for behavior, while inheritance allows for code reuse and polymorphism.
• Interfaces allow for loose coupling and abstraction, enabling multiple implementations of the same behavior.

• Inheritance allows for code reuse and extension of existing classes, reducing code duplication.

• Polymorphism allows objects of different classes to be treated as if they were of the same class, simplifying code and i

Q5. Overloading vs overriding, practical uses
Ans. 
Overloading is having multiple methods with the same name but different parameters. Overriding is having a method in a subclass with the same name and parameters as a method in the superclass.
• Overloading is used to provide different ways to call a method with different parameters

• Overriding is used to provide a specific implementation of a method in a subclass

• Overloading is resolved at compile-time while overriding is r...read more
