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

Q1. What are the 4 principles of oops?
Ans. 
The 4 principles of OOP are Inheritance, Encapsulation, Abstraction, and Polymorphism.
• Inheritance allows a class to inherit properties and behavior from another class.

• Encapsulation restricts access to certain components within a class, protecting the data.

• Abstraction hides complex implementation details and only shows the necessary features.

• Polymorphism allows objects to be treated as instances of their parent class.

Q2. What is the difference between string buffer and string builder?
Ans. 
String buffer is synchronized and thread-safe, while string builder is not synchronized and faster.
• String buffer is synchronized, making it thread-safe for use in multi-threaded environments.

• String builder is not synchronized, providing better performance in single-threaded applications.

• String builder is faster than string buffer due to lack of synchronization overhead.

• Example: StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer(); Str

Q3. Why strings are immutable?
Ans. 
Strings are immutable in order to ensure data integrity and security.
• Immutable strings prevent accidental data modification, ensuring data integrity.

• Immutable strings enhance security by preventing unauthorized access or tampering.

• Immutable strings allow for more efficient memory management and optimization.

• Example: 'Hello' cannot be changed to 'Hella' directly, a new string must be created.

Q4. What are the different types of exception in java?
Ans.

• Checked exceptions are checked at compile time and must be handled using try-catch or throws keyword.

• Unchecked exceptions are not checked at compile time and include RuntimeException and its subclasses.

• Examples of checked exceptions include IOException, SQLException, and ClassNotFoundException.

• Examples of unchecked exceptions include...read more

Q5. Explain linear search algorithm.
Ans. 
Linear search is a simple searching algorithm that sequentially checks each element in a list until a match is found.
• Iterate through each element in the list

• Compare the current element with the target value

• Return the index if a match is found, otherwise return -1
