The final static field variable is a constant variable. There is only one copy of this variable available. It is mandatory to initialize the final static field variable explicitly as the default value for it is not provided by the JVM. Also, this variable cannot be reinitialized.A program that initializes the final static field variable using a static initialization block is given as follows:Examplepublic class Demo {    final static int num;    static {       System.out.println("Running static initialization block.");       num = 6;    }    public static void main(String[] args) {       ...

The provider for the SecureRandom object can be obtained using the method getProvider() in the class java.security.SecureRandom. This method requires no parameters and it returns the provider for the SecureRandom object.A program that demonstrates this is given as follows −Exampleimport java.security.*; import java.util.*; public class Demo {    public static void main(String[] argv) {       try {          SecureRandom sRandom = SecureRandom.getInstance("SHA1PRNG");          Provider provider = sRandom.getProvider();          System.out.println("The Provider is: " + provider.getName());       } catch (NoSuchAlgorithmException e) { ...

The random object can be reseeded using the setSeed() method in the class java.security.SecureRandom. This method requires a single parameter i.e. the required seed byte array and it returns the reseeded random object.A program that demonstrates this is given as follows −Exampleimport java.security.*; import java.util.*; public class Demo {    public static void main(String[] argv) {       try {          SecureRandom sRandom = SecureRandom.getInstance("SHA1PRNG");          String str = "Apple";          byte[] arrB = str.getBytes();          sRandom.setSeed(arrB);          byte[] arrSeed = sRandom.getSeed(5);     ...

The equals() method is inherited from the AbstractList class in Java. It is used to check the object for equality with this list. It returns TRUE if the object is equal to this list, else FALSE is returned.The syntax is as follows −public boolean equals(Object o)Here, o is the object to be compared for equality with this list.To work with the AbstractSequentialList class in Java, you need to import the following packageimport java.util.AbstractSequentialList;The following is an example to implement AbstractSequentialList equals() method in JavaExampleimport java.util.LinkedList; import java.util.AbstractSequentialList; public class Demo {    public static void main(String[] args) {   ...

Static blockThe static blocks are executed at the time of class loading.The static blocks are executed before running the main () method.The static blocks don't have any name in its prototype.If we want any logic that needs to be executed at the time of class loading that logic needs to placed inside the static block so that it will be executed at the time of class loading.Syntaxstatic {    //some statements }Examplepublic class StaticBlockTest {    static {       System.out.println("Static Block!");    }    public static void main(String args[]) {       System.out.println("Welcome to Tutorials Point!");    } }OutputStatic Block!

The findFirst() method in Java returns an OptionalInt describing the first element of this stream. If the stream is empty, an empty OptionalInt is returned.The syntax is as followsOptionalInt findFirst()Here, OptionalInt is a container object which may or may not contain an int value.To work with the IntStream class in Java, import the following packageimport java.util.stream.IntStream;For OptionalInt class, import the following packageimport java.util.OptionalInt;First, create an IntStream and add elementsIntStream intStream = IntStream.of(30, 45, 70, 80, 90, 120);Now, get the first element of this streamOptionalInt res = intStream.findFirst();The following is an example to implement IntStream findFirst() method in JavaExampleimport java.util.OptionalInt; import ...

The forEachOrdered() method in Java performs an action for each element of this stream, guaranteeing that each element is processed in encounter order for streams that have a defined encounter order.The syntax is as follows −void forEachOrdered(LongConsumer action)Here, parameter wrapper is a non-interfering action to perform on the elements. LongConsumer represents an operation that accepts a single long-valued argument and returns no result.To use the LongStream class in Java, import the following package −import java.util.stream.LongStream;The following is an example to implement LongStream forEachOrdered() method in Java −Exampleimport java.util.*; import java.util.stream.LongStream; public class Demo {    public static void main(String[] ...

Generally, the copy constructor is a constructor which creates an object by initializing it with an object of the same class, which has been created previously.Java supports for copy constructors but unlike C language, Java does not provide an explicit copy constructor you need to define it yourself.writing a copy constructorUsually, to initialize the values of instance variables of a class (one way) we create a parameterized constructor accepting the values for all instance variables and initialize them with the given values.int name; int age; public Student(String name, int age){ this.name = name; this.age ...
