Before moving onto their conversions, let us learn about Unicode and UTF-8.Unicode is an international standard of character encoding which has the capability of representing a majority of written languages all over the globe. Unicode uses hexadecimal to represent a character. Unicode is a 16-bit character encoding system. The lowest value is \u0000 and the highest value is \uFFFF.UTF-8 is a variable width character encoding. UTF-8 has the ability to be as condensed as ASCII but can also contain any Unicode characters with some increase in the size of the file. UTF stands for Unicode Transformation Format. The '8' signifies ...

Use arraycopy() method in Java to copy an array from the specified source array.Here, we have two arrays −int arr1[] = { 10, 20, 30, 40}; int arr2[] = { 3, 7, 20, 30};Now, we will use the arraycopy() method to copy the first two elements of the 1st array to the 2nd array −System.arraycopy(arr1, 0, arr2, 2, 2);The following is an example −Exampleimport java.lang.*; public class Demo { public static void main(String[] args) { int arr1[] = { 10, 20, 30, 40}; int arr2[] = { 3, 7, 20, 30}; System.arraycopy(arr1, 0, arr2, 2, 2); System.out.print("New Array = "); System.out.print(arr2[0] + " "); System.out.print(arr2[1] + " "); System.out.print(arr2[2] + " "); System.out.print(arr2[3] + " "); } }OutputNew Array = 3 7 10 20

Using toString() method to convert Short to string. Firstly, let us take a short primitive datatype and initialize a short value.short myShort = 55;Now let us include this value to the following Short object.Short s = new Short(myShort);Convert the above given Short to string using the toString() method as shown in the complete example below.Examplepublic class Demo {    public static void main(String []args) {       short myShort = 55;       Short s = new Short(myShort);       System.out.println("Short: "+s);       String myStr = s.toString();       System.out.println("String: "+myStr);    } }OutputShort: 55 String: 55

The ceil FunctionThe ceil function returns the smallest possible integer value which is equal to the value or greater than that. This function is declared in “cmath” header file in C++ language. It takes single value whoes ceil value is to be calculated. The datatype of variable should be double/float/long double only.Here is the syntax of ceil function in C++ language,double ceil(double x); float ceil(float x);Here is an example of ceil function in C++ language,Example#include #include using namespace std; int main() {    float var = 1234.25;    float res;    res = ceil(var);    cout

The isEmpty() method is used in Java to check whether a NavigableMap is empty or not.First, create a NavigableMap and add elements to it −NavigableMap n = new TreeMap(); n.put(5, "Tom"); n.put(9, "John"); n.put(14, "Jamie"); n.put(1, "Tim"); n.put(4, "Jackie"); n.put(15, "Kurt"); n.put(19, "Tiger"); n.put(24, "Jacob");Now, check whether the Map is empty or not −System.out.println("Map is empty? " + n.isEmpty());The following is an example to implement isEmpty() method and check whether the Map is empty −Exampleimport java.util.*; public class Demo {    public static void main(String[] args) {       NavigableMap n = new TreeMap();       n.put(5, "Tom"); ...
