The const qualifier is used to indicate that a variable's value cannot be modified once it is...
Storage classes are keywords in C programming that define the scope and lifetime of variables.
There are four storage classes in C: auto, register, static, and extern.
Auto variables are local to a function and have a default value of garbage.
Register variables are stored in CPU registers for faster access.
Static variables retain their value between function calls.
Extern variables are declared outside of any functio...
System call is a request made by a program to the operating system for a service or resource.
System calls provide an interface between a program and the operating system.
They allow programs to perform tasks such as reading and writing files, creating new processes, and managing memory.
Examples of system calls include open(), read(), write(), fork(), and exec().
A process is an instance of a program while a thread is a lightweight process that can run concurrently with other threads.
A process is a program in execution
A process has its own memory space and system resources
A thread is a subset of a process
A thread shares the same memory space and system resources as its parent process
Multiple threads can run concurrently within a single process

- Ans.
Two ways to write a sentence in mirror image form in Java: reverse string function and array conversion.
Use the reverse() method of the String class to reverse the sentence
Convert the sentence to a character array, then swap the first and last characters, second and second-to-last characters, and so on until the middle is reached
Example: 'Hello World' becomes 'dlroW olleH'
- Q4. Why static is used in "public static void main"?
- Ans.
Static is used in public static void main to allow the method to be called without creating an instance of the class.
Static methods belong to the class and not to any instance of the class.
The main method is the entry point of a Java program and needs to be called without creating an object of the class.
The static keyword allows the main method to be called directly from the class, without creating an instance of the c...

- Q7. Properties of java(object oriented languages)
- Ans.
Java is an object-oriented language with features like inheritance, encapsulation, and polymorphism.
Inheritance allows classes to inherit properties and methods from other classes.
Encapsulation hides the implementation details of a class from other classes.
Polymorphism allows objects to take on multiple forms or behaviors.
Java also supports abstraction, interfaces, and exception handling.
Example: class Car extends Vehi...
- Q8. Normalization in DBMS (in detail with eg.)
- Ans.
Normalization is a process of organizing data in a database to reduce redundancy and dependency.
Normalization is used to eliminate data redundancy and improve data integrity.
