Q60. Why do we need Garbage collection ?

Ans. Garbage collection mechanism frees up the memory that is no longer needed. In languages like C / C++ the deallocation needs to be done explicitly by the programmer and hence any leniency may result in memory leak. Garbage collection in java ensures that all unused memory is reclaimed and hence there are no memory leaks.Moreover it relieves the programmer from the hassle of carefully releasing all memory.

Q67. How many Windows are there in Manhattan ?

Ans. Population of Manhattan is roughly 2 millions. Nearly same number of people come to Manhattan daily for work. So if whole of Manhattan comprise of only residential and commercial buildings, that makes up 1/3rd residential and 2/3rd commercial. I have lived in a house in a high rise building in downtown and the average size of the house is 1 bedroom with 2 windows and on average 2 people live in a house. So that makes up roughly 1.33 million windows in Residential buildings. At commercial buildings, windows per capita is much lower as more people share the space and roughly it comes down to 1 window for 10 people. So that makes up .266 millions windows in commercial establishments.

So in total there are roughly 1.6 million windows in Manhattan.
