Q1. Explain the difference between ArrayList and LinkedList in Java. ArrayList is implemented as a dynamic array, while LinkedList is a doubly linked list. ArrayList provides fast random access (O(1) complexit...read more
Ans. 
ArrayList is preferred for frequent retrieval operations due to fast random access, while LinkedList is suitable for frequent insertions/deletions.
• Use ArrayList when frequent retrieval operations are required, such as searching for elements in a large collection.

• Choose LinkedList when frequent insertions/deletions are needed, like maintaining a queue or stack.

• Consider memory overhead and performance trade-offs when dec...read more

Q2. What are the advantages and disadvantages of using Java’s synchronized keyword for thread synchronization? The synchronized keyword ensures that only one thread can access a block of code at a time. It pre...read more
Ans. 
ReentrantLock should be used instead of synchronized when more flexibility and control over locking mechanisms is needed.
• Use ReentrantLock when you need to implement custom locking strategies or require advanced features like tryLock() and lockInterruptibly().

• ReentrantLock supports fair locking mechanisms, ensuring that threads acquire the lock in the order they requested it.

• Explicit unlocking in ReentrantLock reduces ...read more

Q3. What is the difference between == and .equals() in Java? == checks for reference equality, meaning it compares memory addresses. equals() checks for value equality, which can be overridden in user-defined ...read more
Ans. 
In Java, == checks for reference equality while equals() checks for value equality. Misuse of == can lead to logical errors.
• Override equals() when you want to compare the values of objects instead of their references

• Override hashCode() alongside equals() to ensure proper functioning in collections like HashMap

• Consider implementing Comparable interface for natural ordering in collections

Q5. What are the main features of Java 8? Java 8 introduced lambda expressions, enabling functional-style programming. The Stream API allows efficient data processing with map, filter, and reduce operations. D...read more
Ans. 
Lambda expressions in Java 8 improve readability and maintainability by enabling concise and functional-style programming.
• Lambda expressions allow writing more compact code by reducing boilerplate code.

• They enable passing behavior as arguments to methods, making code more modular and flexible.

• Example: (a, b) -> a + b is a lambda expression that adds two numbers.
