  • Overloading is resolved at compile-time while overriding is resolved at runti...

A Backend Engineer Lead was asked
Q. What features did you implement?
Ans. 

I implemented various features including X, Y, and Z.

  • Implemented feature X which improved system performance by 20%

  • Developed feature Y which allowed for real-time data analysis

  • Added feature Z which improved user experience by simplifying the interface

A Backend Engineer Lead was asked
Q. Explain each pillar of OOPS with a real-life example
Ans. 

Explanation of OOPS pillars with real-life examples

  • Abstraction: Hiding implementation details, e.g. using a TV remote without knowing how it works

  • Encapsulation: Grouping related data and functions, e.g. a car's engine and transmission

  • Inheritance: Creating new classes from existing ones, e.g. a sports car class inheriting from a car class

  • Polymorphism: Using a single interface to represent multiple classes, e.g. a s...

A Backend Engineer Lead was asked
Q. How is a HASHMAP internally stored in Java?
Ans. 

HashMap in Java is internally stored as an array of linked lists.

  • HashMap uses hashing to store key-value pairs

  • Each key is hashed to an index in the array

  • If there are collisions, a linked list is used to store multiple values at the same index

  • The default initial capacity of HashMap is 16 and load factor is 0.75

  • HashMap is not thread-safe and requires synchronization for concurrent access

A Backend Engineer Lead was asked
Q. Write a program to print the Fibonacci sequence.
Ans. 

Print Fibonacci series

  • Fibonacci series is a sequence of numbers where each number is the sum of the two preceding ones

  • The first two numbers of the series are always 0 and 1

  • The series can be generated using a loop or recursion

  • Example: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377, 610, 987, 1597, 2584, 4181

A Backend Engineer Lead was asked
Q. How do you create an ArrayList and add 5 numbers to it?
Ans. 

Create an ArrayList and add 5 numbers to it.

  • Declare an ArrayList variable and initialize it

  • Use the add() method to add numbers to the ArrayList

  • Numbers can be of any data type (int, double, etc.)

  • Example: ArrayList<Integer> numbers = new ArrayList<>(); numbers.add(1);

  • Make sure to import the ArrayList class
