Before Java 9, we have to search in google to find out particular packages, class, interface, and method information. Since Java 9, Javadoc includes search options in the API documentation itself, and the output is HTML5 compliant.In the below example, we have created the "JavaDocTest.java" file in the "C:/JAVA" folder.Examplepublic class JavaDocTest {    /**       * Default method to be run to print       * Tutorialspoint       * @param args command-line arguments    */    public static void main(String args[]) {       System.out.println("Tutorialspoint");    } }The documentation generated by Java 9 ...

In Java 9,  few static methods: stream(), or(), and ifPresentOrElse() have added to Optional class. The introduction of an Optional class solves the null pointer exception.Optional.or() method returns an Optional describing the value if a value is present, otherwise returns an Optional produced by the supplying function. Syntaxpublic Optional or(Supplier

JShell is a command-line tool introduced in Java 9, and it is Java's first official REPL tool to create a simple programming environment that reads the user's inputs, evaluates it, and prints the result.The declarations outside a class or interface (and declarations of classes and interfaces by themselves) have been created under the following rules.Rules for External Declarations:1) Access modifiers like public, protected, and private can be ignored. All declaration snippets can be accessible to all other snippets.jshell> private int i = 10; i ==> 10 jshell> System.out.println(i); 102) The modifier final can be ignored. Changes and inheritance are allowed.jshell> final class A {void m() {} } ... Read More

A Publisher interface is a provider of an unbounded number of sequenced elements, publishing them according to the demand received from its Subscriber(s). In response to call Publisher.subscribe(Subscriber), the possible invocation sequences for methods on the Subscriber. It means that the onSubscribe() method, followed by the unbounded number of onNext() methods (as requested by Subscriber) followed by an onError() method, if there is a failure or an onComplete() method when no more elements available as long as Subscription is not canceled.Syntaxpublic interface Publisher {    public void subscribe(Subscriber

Kotlin was introduced in Android development considering multiple enhancements in Kotlin w.r.t Java. For example:Less no. of Lines and easier development with the same functionality.Java: TextView displayText = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView); displayText.setText("Hello World"); Kotlin: textView.setText("Hello World")Compile-time handling of infamous null pointer exception.var value: String = "abc" // compilation error value = nullData class instead of POJO.data class User(val name: String, val age: Int)The following are some of the important differences between Java and Kotlin.Sr. No.KeyJavaKotlin1ExceptionsJava uses checked exceptions for exception handling.Kotlin has no checked exception. It throws compile-time errors.2Null HandlingJava has not enforced null check thus null pointer exception ... Read More

Stream API provides lots of built-in functionality to help in performing operations on a collection using a stream pipeline. The API is declarative programming that makes the code precise and less error-prone. In Java 9, few useful methods have added to Stream API.Stream.iterate(): This method can be been used as stream version replacement for traditional for-loops.Stream.takeWhile(): This method can be used in a while loop that takes value while the condition is met.Stream.dropWhile(): This method can be used in a while loop that drops value while the condition is met.In the below example, we can implement the static methods: iterate(), takeWhile(), and dropWhile() methods of Stream ...

JShell is an interactive Java Shell tool that executes code from the JShell and instantly displays an output. JShell is the REPL (Read-Evaluate-Print-Loop) tool that can run from the command-line prompt.In JShell, there is an option to load a script on startup that includes some special predefined options. These can be specified using the "--startup" flag passing in either a filename or one of DEFAULT, JAVASE, and PRINTING. We can use "/list -start" comamnd to see all startup snippets to be evaluated.DEFAULT: It loads the default behavior. This acts the same as if this is not specified at all.JAVASE: It imports all ...

TraitsTraits are similar to interfaces in Java and are created using trait keyword.Abstract ClassAbstract Class is similar to abstract classes in Java and are created using abstract keyword.Example Live DemoFollowing is the program in Scala to show the usage of Traits and Abstract Classes.trait SampleTrait {    // Abstract method    def test    // Non-Abstract method    def tutorials() {       println("Traits tutorials")    } } abstract class SampleAbstractClass {    // Abstract method    def test    // Non-abstract meythod    def tutorials() {       println("Abstract Class tutorial")    } } ...

Problem StatementWith a given array of integers where all elements are less than 1000000. Find the difference between the largest and the smallest primes in an array.ExampleArray: [ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ] Largest Prime Number = 5 Smallest Prime Number = 2 Difference = 5 - 3 = 2.SolutionUse Sieve of Eratosthenes approach, which is an efficient way to find out all prime numbers smaller than a given number. Then we will figure out the largest and smallest prime number to get the required difference.Example Live DemoFollowing is the program in Java to find the required output.public ... Read More

Problem StatementWith a given binary tree, write a program to find the difference between sum of nodes at odd level and even level. Assume root at level 1, left/right child of root at level 2 and so on.Example        5       /   \       2     6      /  \     \     1     4    8    /    /  \   3    7    9 Sum of nodes at odd level = 5 + 1 + 4 + 8 = 18 Sum of ...
