or
What is the difference between String , StringBuilder and StringBuffer ? Core Java
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).

How to implement an immutable class ? Core Java
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. Help us improve.
