Q1. Explain Abstraction and Encapsulation
Ans. 
Abstraction focuses on hiding implementation details, while encapsulation bundles data and methods into a single unit.
• Abstraction allows us to focus on the essential features of an object while hiding unnecessary details.

• Encapsulation helps in data hiding by restricting access to certain components of an object.

• Abstraction is achieved through abstract classes and interfaces in Java.

• Encapsulation is implemented using ac...read more

Q2. Explain the use of Final keyword
Ans. 
Final keyword is used in Java to declare constants, prevent method overriding, and prevent class inheritance.
• Used to declare constants - value cannot be changed once assigned

• Prevents method overriding - method cannot be overridden in child classes

• Prevents class inheritance - class cannot be extended

Q3. Difference between == operator and equals method
Ans. 
The == operator compares memory addresses, while the equals method compares the actual content of objects.
• The == operator checks if two object references point to the same memory address.

• The equals method checks if two objects have the same content.

• Example: String str1 = new String("hello"); String str2 = new String("hello"); str1 == str2 will return false, but str1.equals(str2) will return true.

Q4. Explain about Hash Table
Ans. 
Hash table is a data structure that stores key-value pairs and allows for fast retrieval of values based on keys.
• Hash table uses a hash function to map keys to indexes in an array.

• It provides constant time complexity O(1) for insertion, deletion, and retrieval operations.

• Collisions can occur when two keys hash to the same index, which can be resolved using techniques like chaining or open addressing.

Q5. What is Synchronized keyword
Ans. 
Synchronized keyword is used in Java to control access to shared resources by multiple threads.
• Synchronized keyword is used to create a synchronized block of code, ensuring only one thread can access it at a time.

• It can be applied to methods or code blocks to prevent concurrent access by multiple threads.

• Example: synchronized void myMethod() { // synchronized code block }

Q6. What is the use of volatile keyword
Ans. 
The volatile keyword in Java is used to indicate that a variable's value will be modified by different threads.
• Ensures visibility of changes to variables across threads

• Prevents compiler optimizations that could reorder code and affect variable values

• Useful for variables accessed by multiple threads without synchronization

• Example: volatile int count = 0;

Q7. What are checked and unchecked exceptions
Ans. 
Checked exceptions are checked at compile time, while unchecked exceptions are not.
• Checked exceptions must be either caught or declared in the method signature using 'throws' keyword

• Unchecked exceptions do not need to be caught or declared

• Examples of checked exceptions: IOException, SQLException

• Examples of unchecked exceptions: NullPointerException, ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException
