Interview Questions and Answers for 'Deloitte' - 47 question(s) found - Order By Newest | ||||
Advanced level question. Frequently asked in High end product companies. Frequently asked in Google , Cognizant and Deloitte ( Based on 2 feedback ) | ||||
| ||||
Ans. 1. String Pool - When a string is created and if it exists in the pool, the reference of the existing string will be returned instead of creating a new object. If string is not immutable, changing the string with one reference will lead to the wrong value for the other references. Example - String str1 = "String1"; String str2 = "String1"; // It doesn't create a new String and rather reuses the string literal from pool // Now both str1 and str2 pointing to same string object in pool, changing str1 will change it for str2 too 2. To Cache its Hashcode - If string is not immutable, One can change its hashcode and hence it's not fit to be cached. 3. Security - String is widely used as parameter for many java classes, e.g. network connection, opening files, etc. Making it mutable might possess threats due to interception by the other code segment. | ||||

Ans. If the Object value will not change, use String Class because a String object is immutable. If the Object value can change and will only be modified from a single thread, use StringBuilder because StringBuilder is unsynchronized(means faster). If the Object value may change, and can be modified by multiple threads, use a StringBuffer because StringBuffer is thread safe(synchronized). | ||||

Very frequently asked. Favorite question in Walk in Drive of many Indian service companies. | ||||
| ||||
Ans. Underlying data structure for ArrayList is Array whereas LinkedList is the linked list and hence have following differences - 1. ArrayList needs continuous memory locations and hence need to be moved to a bigger space if new elements are to be added to a filled array which is not required for LinkedList. 2. Removal and Insertion at specific place in ArrayList requires moving all elements and hence leads to O(n) insertions and removal whereas its constant O(1) for LinkedList. 3. Random access using index in ArrayList is faster than LinkedList which requires traversing the complete list through references. 4. Though Linear Search takes Similar Time for both, Binary Search using LinkedList requires creating new Model called Binary Search Tree which is slower but offers constant time insertion and deletion. 5. For a set of integers you want to sort using quicksort, it's probably faster to use an array; for a set of large structures you want to sort using selection sort, a linked list will be faster. | ||||

Frequently asked question in companies using Hibernate. | ||||
| ||||
Ans. It's a feature to lazily initialize dependencies , relationship and associations from the Database. Any related references marked as @OneToMany or @ManyToMany are loaded lazily i.e when they are accessed and not when the parent is loaded. | ||||

Ans. Polymorphism means the condition of occurring in several different forms. Polymorphism in Java is achieved in two manners 1. Static polymorphism is the polymorphic resolution identified at compile time and is achieved through function overloading whereas 2. Dynamic polymorphism is the polymorphic resolution identified at runtime and is achieved through method overriding. | ||||

Ans. We can make a class immutable by 1. Making all methods and variables as private. 2. Setting variables within constructor. Public Class ImmutableClass{ private int member; ImmutableClass(int var){ member=var; } } and then we can initialize the object of the class as ImmutableClass immutableObject = new ImmutableClass(5); Now all members being private , you cant change the state of the object. | ||||

Ans. Iterators in java are used to iterate over the Collection objects. Fail-Fast iterators immediately throw ConcurrentModificationException if there is any addition, removal or updation of any element. Fail-Safe iterators don't throw any exception if a collection is structurally modified while iterating over it. This is because, they operate on the clone of the collection and not on the original collection. | ||||

Ans. 1. Switching Overheads - Even though multi threading aims at improving performance by reducing the wait time and hence improving overall throughput, there is a cost of switching resources between threads and sometime this cost can surpass the benefits if there isnt much wait for IO or external communication. 2. Debugging is hard with multi threaded code. 3. Deadlock - Execution of multi threaded code many a times lead to deadlock due to shared resources. | ||||

Very frequently asked. | ||||

Ans. Synchronize is used to achieve mutual exclusion i.e at one time, the segment of the code, method that has been declared synchronized should be executed by single thread only and hence the lock needs to be retrieved before executing the segment and then released. | ||||
