Ans. The term monkey patch only refers to dynamic modifications of a class or module at runtime, motivated by the intent to patch existing third-party code as a workaround to a bug or feature which does not act as desired.

Ans. public class SingleTon {
private SingleTon() {
if (singleTon != null) {
throw new RuntimeException("cant not create the object");
}
}
public Object clone() throws CloneNotSupportedException {
throw new CloneNotSupportedException("can not be create");
}
Ans. When a Table Join itself , it's a Self Join. For example - we like to know the pair of department names where first dept has lesser employees than the later.
Select D1.name , D2.name from Dept D1, Dept D2 where D1.employee_count < D2.employee_count

Ans. "equals" is the method of object class which is supposed to be overridden to check object equality, whereas "==" operator evaluate to see if the object handlers on the left and right are pointing to the same object in memory.
x.equals(y) means the references x and y are holding objects that are equal. x==y means that the references x and y have same object.
Sample code:
String x = new String("str");
String y = new String("str");
System.out.println(x == y); // prints false
System.out.println(x.equals(y)); // prints true
Ans. The Java runtime environment deletes objects when it determines that they are no longer being used. This process is known as garbage collection. The Java runtime environment supports a garbage collector that periodically frees the memory used by objects that are no longer needed. The Java garbage collector is a mark-sweep garbage collector that scans Java dynamic memory areas for objects, marking those that are referenced. After all possible paths to objects are investigated, those objects that are not marked (i.e. are not referenced) are known to be garbage and are collected.

Ans. final - constant variable, objects cannot be de-referenced, restricting method overriding, restricting class sub classing.
finally - handles exception. The finally block is optional and provides a mechanism to clean up regardless of what happens within the try block. Use the finally block to close files or to release other system resources like database connections, statements etc.
finalize() - method helps in garbage collection. A method that is invoked before an object is discarded by the garbage collector, allowing it to clean up its state.
Ans. It's a feature to lazily initialize dependencies , relationship and associations from the Database. Any related references marked as @OneToMany or @ManyToMany are loaded lazily i.e when they are accessed and not when the parent is loaded.
Feature to load all objects and relationships in advance before they can be used
Feature to not load dependencies and relationship in advance and load when required
Feature to not load the dependencies and relationships at all
Which of the following is not the benefit of Lazy Initialization in Hibernate ?
Laod When required provides better performance
Object stays lighter
Less number of Database calls
Less load on Database
Very frequently asked. Usually followed by questions related to private constructor and synchronized access. Frequently asked in JPMorgan and TCS (Based on 2 feedback)
