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. String pool (String intern pool) is a special storage area in Java heap. When a string is created and if the string already exists in the pool, the reference of the existing string will be returned, instead of creating a new object and returning its reference. | ||||

Ans. There are total six ways 1. literals When we create a String using double quotes, JVM looks in the String pool to find if any other String is stored with same value. If found, it just returns the reference to that String object else it creates a new String object with given value and stores it in the String pool. 2. new keyword When we use new operator, JVM creates the String object but dont store it into the String Pool. We can use intern() method to store the String object into String pool or return the reference if there is already a String with equal value present in the pool. 3. string buffer 4. string builder 5. System.out.println 6. char to string | ||||
