Instance variables are initialized using initialization blocks. However, the static initialization blocks can only initialize the static instance variables. These blocks are only executed once when the class is loaded. There can be multiple static initialization blocks in a class that is called in the order they appear in the program.A program that demonstrates a static initialization block in Java is given as follows:Examplepublic class Demo {    static int[] numArray = new int[10];    static {       System.out.println("Running static initialization block.");       for (int i = 0; i < numArray.length; i++) {       ...

With Java, you can initialize a set without using add() method.For this create a string array −String arr[] = { "A", "B", "C", "D", "E"};Now, use Set and asList() method to initialize the above string array to our Set −Set s = new HashSet(Arrays.asList(arr));The following is an example to initialize a set without using add() method −Exampleimport java.util.Arrays; import java.util.HashSet; import java.util.Set; public class Demo { public static void main(String[] a) { String arr[] = { "A", "B", "C", "D", "E"}; Set s = new ...

The static variable is a class level variable and it is common to all the class objects i.e. a single copy of the static variable is shared among all the class objects.A static method manipulates the static variables in a class. It belongs to the class instead of the class objects and can be invoked without using a class object.The static initialization blocks can only initialize the static instance variables. These blocks are only executed once when the class is loaded.A program that demonstrates this is given as follows:Examplepublic class Demo {    static int x = 10;    static ...

A view of the ByteBuffer can be created as a LongBuffer using the asLongBuffer() method in the class java.nio.ByteBuffer. This method requires no parameters and it returns a long buffer as required. This buffer reflects the changes made to the original buffer and vice versa.A program that demonstrates this is given as follows −Exampleimport java.nio.*; import java.util.*; public class Demo {    public static void main(String[] args) {       int n = 50;       try {          ByteBuffer bufferB = ByteBuffer.allocate(n);          LongBuffer bufferL = bufferB.asLongBuffer();         ...

The filter() method of the IntStream class in Java returns a stream consisting of the elements of this stream that match the given predicate.The syntax is as follows −IntStream filter(IntPredicate predicate)Here, the predicate parameter is a stateless predicate to apply to each element to determine if it should be included. The IntPredicate above is the predicate of one int-valued argument.Create an IntStream and add elements −IntStream intStream = IntStream.of(20, 34, 45, 67, 89, 100);Now, set a condition and filter stream elements based on it using the filter() method −intStream.filter(a -> a < 50).The following is an example to implement IntStream ...

A method which does not have body is known as abstract method. It contains only method signature with a semi colon and, an abstract keyword before it.public abstract myMethod();Yes, you can throw and exception from an abstract class.ExampleIn the following Java program, we have a two classes: one abstract class with name MyClass which have an abstract method (display()) and, another class that extends the abstract class.Here, the display() method abstract class throws an IOException.Exampleimport java.io.IOException; abstract class MyClass {    public abstract void display() throws IOException; } public class AbstractClassExample extends MyClass{    public void display() throws IOException { ...

An element in ArrayList can be replaced using the ListIterator method set(). This method has a single parameter i.e. the element that is to be replaced and the set() method replaces it with the last element returned by the next() or previous() methods.A program that demonstrates this is given as follows.Exampleimport java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.ListIterator; public class Demo {    public static void main(String[] args) {       ArrayList aList = new ArrayList();       aList.add("Amanda");       aList.add("Taylor");       aList.add("Justin");       aList.add("Emma");       aList.add("Peter");       System.out.println("The ArrayList elements are: ...

The static field variable is a class level variable and it belongs to the class not the class object.So the static field variable is common to all the class objects i.e. a single copy of the static field variable is shared among all the class objects.A program that demonstrates referencing the static field variable after declaration is given as follows:Examplepublic class Demo {    static int a = 7;    static int b = a + 5;    public static void main(String[] args) {       System.out.println("a = " + a);       System.out.println("b = " + b); ...
