Sort an Array of Triplet using Java Comparable and Comparator
In this article, we will create an array of triplet and try to sort them using the Comparable and Comparator interfaces. The term array of triplet means an array having three elements. An Array is a fixed-length linear data structure that stores group of elements with similar datatypes in a sequential manner. Sort an Array of Triplet using Comparator As the name suggests, Comparator is used to compare something. In Java, the Comparator is an interface that can be passed as a parameter to sorting methods like Arrays.sort() or Collections.sort() to sort custom objects. To use it, we need to ...
Read MoreSimple Calculator using TCP in Java
The Internet Protocol suite contains all sort of protocols that enables communication between devices over the Internet. TCP is a connection-oriented protocol, which means it maintains the established connection between two devices till the end of a communication. This is the reason it is used while web surfing, sending emails and transferring files. In this article, we will develop a simple client-server side calculator using TCP in Java. The client will request the operation and the server will send the result to client device after calculating it. Java Networking Let's briefly understand a few basic concepts about Java networking that ...
Read MoreShuffling Elements of Unordered Collections in Java
There are two types of Collections in Java. One is ordered and the other one is unordered collection. The ordered collections store their elements in the order in which they are inserted i.e. it maintains the insertion order of elements. Whereas, the unordered collections such as Map and Set do not maintain any order. In this article, we will create an unordered collection and try to shuffle its elements using the inbuilt method Collections.shuffle(). The Collections.shuffle() Method The Collections.shuffle() method is provided by java.util package. It takes a list as an argument and then rearranges the elements randomly. Therefore, before ...
Read MoreHow to remove the HTML tags from a given string in Java?
A String is a final class in Java, and it is immutable, it means that we cannot change the object itself, but we can change the reference to the object. The HTML tags can be removed from a given string by using the following approaches: Using replaceAll() Method Using Pattern and Matcher Using replaceAll() Method We can remove the HTML tags from a given string by using the replaceAll() method. The replaceAll() method accepts two parameters: a "regular expression" and a "replacement string". It replaces all substrings that match the ...
Read MoreHow can we convert character array to a Reader in Java?
Converting a character array to a reader in Java means treating the array as a stream of characters to be read sequentially. Let's quickly learn about character array and its creation in Java: In Java, a character array is an array that holds elements of only char type, and it is also used to store a sequence of characters. Following is the syntax to define a character array in Java: char char_array_name[] = {'char1', 'char2', 'char3'....} or char char_array_name[] = new char[size]; Here, char_array_name: The name of the character array. ...
Read MoreCan a constructor be synchronized in Java?
No, a constructor cannot be synchronized in Java. If you try to use the synchronized keyword before a constructor, it may throw a compile-time error in the IDE. Synchronization is a mechanism used to control the access of multiple threads to any shared resource. When multiple threads access any shared resources, the synchronization prevents data corruption by coordinating access, avoiding race conditions (i.e., occurs when multiple threads concurrently access and modify shared data), and ensuring that operations are performed atomically. The JVM ensures that only one thread can invoke a constructor call at a given point in time. That is ...
Read MoreCan we define a package after the import statement in Java?
No, we cannot define a package after the import statement in Java. The compiler will throw an error if we try to insert a package after the import statement. A package is a group of similar types of classes, interfaces, and sub-packages. To create a class inside a package, declare the package name in the first statement in our program. Important! If you use the package statement in an online compiler, you may still get an error even if it is defined correctly. This is because many online compilers do not support custom package structures. Example In the following example, ...
Read MoreHow To Check Whether a Number is a Narcissistic Number or Not in Java?
What is a Narcissistic Number? A number is said to be a Narcissistic number, only if the addition (or sum) of the value of each digit raised to the power of the total number of digits available in the original number is equal to the original number. Examples of narcissistic numbers, such as 153, 1634, 54748, etc. All single-digit numbers (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9) are Narcissistic numbers because the power of 1 of any digit will be the digit itself. The following input and output scenarios will help you understand the problem and calculation ...
Read MoreWhat is a Type-safe Enum in Java?
In Java, an enum is a special class that represents a "group of constants" that cannot be changed, just like a "final variables". Java provides an enum keyword to create an enum, and inside the class, the constants are written in uppercase letters and separated by commas (, ). Syntax to create an enum in Java: enum EnumName { CONST1, CONST2, CONST3 // ... } Here, enum: A predefined keyword used to define an enum. EnumName: The name ...
Read MoreCan we synchronize a run() method in Java?
Yes, we can synchronize a run() method in Java using the synchronized keyword before this method. If this method is synchronized, only one thread can execute this on a given instance of the object at any point in time. Here is a code snippet that shows how to define the run() method as synchronized: @Override synchronized run(){ //code implementation } Here, the @Override annotation specifies that the run() method overrides a method from the Runnable interface, and synchronized is a reserved keyword in Java used to define a method or block as synchronized. Synchronization of a run() ...
