 Q1837. How would you process a 20 gb file with an application only having access to 4gb memory ?BigData
Ans. Load the file in chunks and then process. If we need to do analytic, we can process analytic information for those chunks and then reprocess the processed information from each chunk.

For example - we need to average all marks in the file. We can divide the file and load into 5 chunks and calculate average for each chunk. Then we can collect averages for all 5 chunks and then calculate the final average.

 Q1845. If everything is an object , Cant we declare every object as

Object obj = new String();
Core Java
Ans. Yes, we can do that. Compiler wont complain. But using object reference we can only access methods which have been defined for object class i.e clone(), equals(), hashCode(), toString() etc.

We cannot access methods defined in String class or in any class in hierarchy between String and Object.

For example - we cannot do obj.append("abc") as it will now give compile time error.

 Q1849. Difference between Static and Singleton Class ?Core Java
Ans. 1. Static class is a class which cannot be instantiated and all its members are static whereas Singleton is the class that only permit creation of single object and then the object is reused.

2. As there is no object in Static class, it cannot participate in runtime Polymorphism.

3. As Static class doesnt allow creating objects and hence it cannot be serialized.

4. Static class body is initialized eagerly at application load time whereas Singleton object can be initiated eagerly using static blocks or lazily on first need.

5. Its not recommended to use pure static class as it fails to use many OOPs concepts.

 Q1856. Have you ever had any conflict with the team member (like disagreement on some design decision ) and How you reacted to it ? General
Ans. [Open Ended Answer]

This is a very sensitive question and should be dealt with caution. Just simply saying that you never had any disagreement will present you as dumb team member. Showing your self as too aggressive in such decisions will present you as a trouble maker. You should present a situation where you had an argument / disagreement but eventually you and your team mates mutually found a way out of it.

 Q1857. How is String class unique ?Core Java
Ans. String class is immutable as well as final. Because of these properties , String objects offer many benefits

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 doesnt 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 its 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.

 Q1858. Write an Algorithm for Graph Traversal ? The Graph has a loop.Algorithm
Ans. Please not that all such questions can be easily answered through recursion.

Simple recursive implementation could be

traverse(root);

void traverse(Element element){
if(element.hasNext()){
traverse(element.next());
} else {
System.out.println(element);
}
}

but this algo / code lead to endless loop if there is a loop in graph traversal.

So you can keep a collection to keep track of which elements have laready been traversed


static List<Elements> listOfAlreadyTraversedElements = new ArrayList<Elements>();

main(){
traverse(root);
}

void traverse(Element element){
if(element.hasNext()){
traverse(element.next());
} else {
listOfAlreadyTraversedElements.add(element);
System.out.println(element);
}
}

 Q1859. Can we start the same thread twice ?Core Java

But Yes, we can run the same code in parallel using different threads.
