Ans. Java provides a faster allocation mechanism but at the cost of expensive deallocation. Deallocation in java is done by mechanism called garbage collection that runs periodically to free up unclaimed memory space , which actually slows down the application. Hence Java is usually faster if memory is not of concern and sufficiently large memory can be allocated to an application.
C/C++ on other hand have equal cost of allocation and de-allocation.

Ans. 1. HashSet doesnt maintain its elements in any specific order and is all random whereas TreeSet maintains elements in natural order 9 order defined by the equals method of TreeSet element type )
2. TreeSet doesnt allow null elements whereas HashMap does.
3. As TreeSet orders elements and is hence insertion is comparatively slower.
4. HashSet performs basic operations like add(), remove(), contains(), size() etc. in a constant size time. A TreeSet performs these operations at the order of log(n) time.
5. HashMap in Java internally backs a HashSet. A NavigableMap backs a TreeSet internally.

Ans. It make sense if its returning something. It doesnt make sense for void methods where return statement is not preceded by anything. In case of void methods , return as last statement has no impact and is actually a overhead.

Ans. Such return is only expected in methods that returns void. the purpose of having return in such a method is to return the flow out of method and return to the place where it was called. Its actually used to prematurely return the control from the method.

out is the static reference of Printstream declared as following in the System Class -
public final static PrintStream out = null;
println is the method of PrintStream class.

Ans. Spliterator has better performance potential than iterators but only if the potential is used. Spliterator can iterate streams in parallel as well as in sequence whereas iterator can only iterate in sequence.
Help us improve. Please let us know the company, where you were asked this question :
Ans. Though there are many differences the way internally they both iterates the collections and streams respectively, but the main difference in performance that is achieved by spliterator as it can iterate Streams in Parallel whereas iterator only iterates collections sequentially.

Ans. NumberFormatException is the exception that Java throws when we try to convert one data type to the Number data type but the value is not parsable to be a Number.
For example , the following code will result in the NumberFormatException

Ans. No, member variables of a interface are final by default.
The final ensures the value assigned to the interface variable is a true constant that cannot be re assigned by program code.

Ans. Coupling is the degree of interdependence between software modules, a measure of how closely connected two modules are or the strength of the relationships between modules.
Cohesion refers to the degree to which the elements of a module belong together. Cohesion measures the strength of relationship between pieces of functionality within a given module.
