Q & A in Java basics Part-1

 

Q & A in Java basics Part-1

1.    What is Java?

Java is a widely used, high-level programming language known for its portability and ability to run on multiple platforms.

2.    What are the key features of Java?

Java is known for its platform independence, object-oriented nature, robustness, security, and automatic memory management.

3.    How do you define a class in Java?

To define a class in Java, you use the "class" keyword followed by the class name and curly braces containing class members

4.    What is a constructor in Java?

A constructor is a special method used to initialize the object's state when it is created. It has the same name as the class.

5.    How do you create an object in Java?

To create an object in Java, you use the "new" keyword followed by the constructor of the class as shown below:



6.    What is the difference between an instance variable and a class variable?

An instance variable is associated with an instance of a class and has a separate value for each object. A class variable, also known as a static variable, is shared among all objects of the class.

7.    Explain the main method in Java.

The main method is the entry point of a Java program. It has the signature as shown below:


8.    How do you print output to the console in Java?

You can use the System.out.println() method to print output to the console as shown below.


9.    What are Java data types?

Java has two categories of data types: primitive data types (e.g., int, double) and reference data types (e.g., String, Array).

10. Explain the difference between "==" and ".equals()" for comparing objects in Java.

"==" compares object references, while ".equals()" compares the content of objects. In most cases, you should use ".equals()" to compare objects for equality.

11. What is a package in Java?

A package is a collection of related classes and interfaces. It helps organize code and provides access control.

12. How do you import a package in Java?

You use the "import" statement followed by the package name at the top of your Java file to import a package as shown in the following figure:

13. What is method overloading in Java?

Method overloading allows you to have multiple methods with the same name in a class, but with different parameter lists.

14. What is method overriding in Java?

Method overriding occurs when a subclass provides a specific implementation for a method that is already defined in its superclass.

15. How do you handle exceptions in Java?

Exceptions are handled using try-catch blocks. The code that might raise an exception goes inside the "try" block, and the exception handling code goes inside the "catch" block.

16. What is the purpose of the "finally" block in exception handling?

The "finally" block is used to specify code that should be executed regardless of whether an exception occurs or not.


17. What is a static method in Java? 

      A static method belongs to the class rather than an instance of the class. It can be called using the class name.

18. How do you declare constants in Java?

     You can declare constants using the "final" keyword.


19. Explain the "this" keyword in Java.

The "this" keyword refers to the current instance of the class and is often used to distinguish between instance variables and method parameters with the same name.

20. What is method chaining in Java?

Method chaining is a technique where you call multiple methods on an object in a single line by returning the object from each method.



21. What is a static block in Java?

A static block is a block of code that runs when the class is loaded into memory, before the creation of any object.

Part 8:What is DOM Manipulation in JavaScript?

What is DOM Manipulation in JavaScript? Welcome to Part 8 of our JavaScript Step by Step series! In this part, we will find out, what is DOM Manipulation in JavaScript? DOM (Document Object Model) manipulation using JavaScript is a programming interface for web documents. It represents the page so that programs can change the document structure, style, and content. What is the DOM? The DOM is a tree-like structure that represents the HTML of a web page. Each element in the HTML document is represented as a node in the DOM tree. These nodes are organized in a hierarchical structure, with the document itself at the root and the HTML elements as its branches and leaves. Here's a simple example of the DOM tree structure for a basic HTML document: <! DOCTYPE html > < html > < head >         < title > My Web Page </ title > </ head > < body >         < h1 > Hello, World! </ h1 >      ...

Learning JavaScript Step by Step - Part 7: Objects

Part 7: Objects in JavaScript What Are Objects? Objects in JavaScript are collections of key-value pairs. They're used to represent entities with properties and behaviors. Here's how you create an object: let person = {     name : " Alice " ,     age : 30 ,     isStudent : false }; 1. Curly braces {} define an object. 2. Each property is a key-value pair separated by a colon. Accessing Object Properties You can access object properties using dot notation or bracket notation: console . log (person . name) ; // Output: "Alice" console . log (person[ " age " ]) ; // Output: 30 Modifying Object Properties To change the value of an object property, simply assign a new value to it: person . age = 31 ; console . log (person . age) ; // Output: 31 Adding and Deleting Properties You can add new properties to an object or delete existing ones as needed: person . country = " USA " ; // Adding a new property delete person . isStudent ; /...

Learning JavaScript Step by Step - Part 6: Arrays

Part 6: Arrays in JavaScript Welcome back to our JavaScript learning journey! In this part, we'll dive into one of the essential data structures: arrays. These are fundamental building blocks in JavaScript that enable you to work with collections of data and create more complex data structures. Creating Arrays An array is a collection of values, which can be of any data type, stored in a single variable. There are two methods of creating arrays in JavaScript: Method 1: Using Array Literals In this method, you directly list the elements you want to include within the array.This is the most common and convenient way to create an array. You define the array by enclosing a list of values inside square brackets []. Example: / Creating an array of numbers let numbers = [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 ] ; // Creating an array of strings let fruits = [ " apple " , " banana " , " cherry " ] ; // Creating an array of mixed data types let mixedArray = [ 1 , ...

Learn JavaScript Step by Step Part 4 Control Flow

Part 4: Control Flow in JavaScript Welcome to the next part of our JavaScript journey! In this segment, we'll explore control flow in JavaScript. Control flow allows you to make decisions in your code and execute specific blocks of code based on conditions. It's a fundamental concept in programming. At the end of this blog you will get a quiz to test your understanding of this topic. Let's dive in! Conditional Statements: Making Decisions Conditional statements are used to make decisions in your code. They allow your program to take different actions depending on whether a certain condition is true or false. 1. If Statement:  The if statement is the most basic conditional statement. It executes a block of code if a specified condition evaluates to true. let age = 18 ; if (age >= 18 ) {     console . log ( " You are an adult. " ) ; } If you run the code in VS Code, the output will be: Output: You are an adult. 2. Else Statement:  You can use the else stateme...

Learn JavaScript Step by Step Part 5 Functions

Part 5: Functions in JavaScript In this part, we'll dive into the exciting world of functions in JavaScript. Functions are like superpowers for your code. They allow you to encapsulate reusable pieces of logic, making your code more organized, efficient, and easier to maintain. We'll explore what functions are, how to declare them, and how to use them effectively. What Is a Function? Imagine a function as a mini-program within your program. It's a self-contained block of code that performs a specific task or calculation. Functions are designed to be reusable, so you can call them whenever you need that specific task done without writing the same code over and over. Declaring a Function: To declare a function, you use the function keyword followed by a name for your function. Here's a simple function that adds two numbers: function addNumbers ( a , b ) {     let result = a + b ;     return result ; } function: The keyword that tells JavaScript you're creating...
