How To Calculate Volume of Prism in Java?
A Prism refers to a three-dimensional solid object which has two identical ends. A prism has two faces, which are: Top and Bottom face. Lateral face Both top and bottom faces are called bases which are identical to each other. All lateral faces are also identical to each other which belong to the class of parallelograms. When the base of the prism is triangular in shape that prism is called a Triangular prism. Similarly, when the base of a prism is rectangular in shape it is called a Rectangular prism. ...
Read MoreCan we override a start() method in Java?
Yes! we can override the start() method of the Thread class in Java. But, if we do so, we must call it using super.start(), which will create a new thread; otherwise, no new thread will be created, and the run() method will not execute in parallel for the other threads. Overriding the start() Method In Java, the start() method is used to begin (start) the execution of a new Thread. When this method is called, it invokes the run() method, which executes in parallel with other threads. Example In the following example, we override the start() method within the subclass of ...
Read MoreHow to get the first element of the List in Java?
A list stores a sequence of elements of a similar type. Like an array, the elements in a List are stored at specific indices, starting from index 0. The 0th index indicates the "first element", the 1st indicates the "second" element, and so on. In Java, a list is represented by the interface named List (with the same name) that extends the Collection interface. To create a List object, we can instantiate any class that implements the List interface, such as ArrayList, Stack, Vector, etc (Since we cannot instantiate an interface). We can get the first element of the List in ...
Read MoreHow to find an element in a List with Java?
In Java, a List is an interface that extends the Collection interface and represents a sequence of elements. Since the List is an interface. To create a List object, we need to instantiate a class that implements the List interface, such as ArrayList. The List provides various methods that help to check or find the element in it. We will discuss those methods in the coming section with suitable examples. Below is a list of various ways to find an element in the Java List: Using the get() Method Using ...
Read MoreImportance of XOR operator in Java?
Bitwise XOR (exclusive or) "^" is an operator in Java that provides the answer '1' if both of the bits in its operands are different; if both of the bits are the same, then the XOR operator gives the result '0'. XOR is a binary operator that is evaluated from left to right. The operator "^" is undefined for the argument of type String. Importance of the XOR (^) Operator in Java In Java, the XOR (^) operator is important for both bitwise and boolean operations. It returns true or 1 only when the two operands "differ". XOR is commonly ...
Read MoreHow to convert an OutputStream to a Writer in Java?
Input and output Streams in Java are objects that accepts sequence of information and sends them further. These are used to read and write data from/to various sources.What are Output Streams & WritersA Java output streams accept output data (bytes) from a source and sends it to the destination. An output stream is represented by an abstract class known as OutputStream. This is the super class of all the OutputStream classes. There are various output streams in Java namely, ByteArrayOutputStream, FileOutputStream, FilterOutputStream, ObjectOutputStream, PipedOutputStream.Writers are objects that are used to write data to character streams. These are represented by the abstract ...
Read MoreHow can we avoid a deadlock in Java?
This article explains several strategies to avoid deadlock in Java, including a brief introduction to deadlock, strategies, and respective examples. Deadlock in Java In case of multi-threading, a deadlock is a programming situation where two or more threads are holding resources needed by other threads and are blocked forever, waiting for each other (to release the required resource). A deadlock condition will occur with at least two threads and two or more resources.How To Avoid Deadlock in Java? Following is a list of strategies to avoid the deadlock in Java: ...
Read MoreCan we define multiple methods in a class with the same name in Java?
Yes, we can define multiple methods in a class with the same name. But if we have two methods with the same name, the compiler should be able to differentiate between the two methods. Therefore, in Java, "we can define multiple methods" with the same name in a single class, as long as each method has a different set of parameters. When we invoke a method, the compiler executes the respective body (code) based on the arguments passed.This concept is known as method overloading. Method Overloading in Java In Java, method overloading is a type of compile-time polymorphism. Polymorphism is one ...
Read MoreHow can we print all the capital letters of a given string in Java?
The Character class is a subclass of the Object class, and it wraps a value of the primitive type char in an object. An object of type Character class contains a single field whose type is char. We can print all the capital letters of a given string using the following approaches - Using isUpperCase() Method Using ASCII Comparison Using isUpperCase() Method The isUpperCase() is the method of the Character class. It accepts a character as a parameter and returns true if it is an uppercase letter and false if not.To ...
Read MoreHow to check the memory used by a program in Java?
This article will discuss "how to check the memory used by a program" in Java, including a brief introduction of the process for calculation and an appropriate example that correctly checks the memory usage by the program. Understanding Memory Usage in Java Programs A Java code that takes a long time to execute, makes heavy use of dynamic memory. In such scenarios, we may end up with Out-of-Memory errors (due to a memory shortage of the heap space). We can calculate the memory space (heap) used by a Java program using the methods provided by the Runtime class.If the heap space is ...
