Interview Questions and Answers

 Q1. What are the benefits of creating immutable objects ?Core Java
Ans. 1. Security and Safety - They can be shared across multiple threads as they are thread safe. Moreover, it protects then from bad state due to interception by the other code segment. One such problem due to mutability and access by alternate code segment could be the change of hash code and then the impact on its search with hash collections.

2. Reuse - In some cases they can be reused as only one copy would exist and hence it can be relied upon. For example - String Pool
