How to swap or exchange objects in Java?
Java uses call by value while passing parameters to a function. To swap objects, we need to use their wrappers. See the example below −Examplepublic class Tester{ public static void main(String[] args) { A a = new A(); A b = new A(); a.value = 1; b.value = 2; //swap using objects swap(a, b); System.out.println(a.value +", " + b.value); Wrapper wA = new Wrapper(a); Wrapper wB = new Wrapper(b); ...
Read MoreInfinity or exception in Java when divide by 0?
Consider the following code snippet where we divide a number by 0.Examplepublic class Tester{ public static void main(String[] args) { double d = 100; System.out.println(d/0); } }OutputInfinityNow consider the following code snippet.Examplepublic class Tester{ public static void main(String[] args) { int d = 100; System.out.println(d/0); } }OutputException in thread "main" java.lang.ArithmeticException: / by zero at Tester.main(Tester.java:5)As you've noted, the Infinity vs ArithmeticException, a different result for similar divide by zero program. The difference lies in floating point arithmetic used in first program and integer arithmetic used in second program.

Read MoreImplement Runnable vs Extend Thread in Java
We can create Thread by either by implementing a runnable interface or by extending Thread class. Below are the detailed steps of using both ways to create Thread.Create a Thread by Implementing a Runnable InterfaceIf your class is intended to be executed as a thread then you can achieve this by implementing a Runnable interface. You will need to follow three basic steps −Step 1As a first step, you need to implement a run() method provided by a Runnable interface. This method provides an entry point for the thread and you will put your complete business logic inside this method. ...
Read MoreInitialize HashSet in Java
A set is a collection which does not allows duplicate values. HashSet is an implementation of a Set. Following are the ways in which we can initialize a HashSet in Java.Using constructor − Pass a collection to Constructor to initialize an HashSet.Using addAll() − Pass a collection to Collections.addAll() to initialize an HashSet.Using unmodifiableSet() − Pass a collection to Collections.unmodifiableSet() to get a unmodifiable Set.Using add() − Using add(element) method of Set.Following is an example of using above ways.ExampleInfinityNow consider the following code snippet.Exampleimport java.util.Arrays; import java.util.Collections; import java.util.HashSet; import java.util.List; import java.util.Set; public class Tester{ public static ...

Read Moreinstanceof operator vs isInstance method in java
isInstance method is equivalent to instanceof operator. The method is used in case of objects are created at runtime using reflection. General practice says if type is to be checked at runtime then use isInstance method otherwise instanceof operator can be used. See the example below −Examplepublic class Tester{ public static void main(String[] args) throws ClassNotFoundException { Integer i = new Integer(10); System.out.println(usingInstanceOf(i)); System.out.println(usingIsInstance(i)); } public static String usingInstanceOf(Object i){ if(i instanceof String){ return "String"; } ...

Read MoreIterator vs forEach in Java
Collections can be iterated easily using two approaches.Using for-Each loop − Use a foreach loop and access the array using object.Using Iterator − Use a foreach loop and access the array using object.DifferencesConcurrentModificationException − Using for-Each loop, if an object is modified, then ConcurrentModificationException can occur. Using iterator, this problem is elliminated.Size Check − Using for-Each, size check is not required. Using iterator if hasNext() is not used properly, NoSuchElementException can occur.Performance − Performance is similar for both cases.Following is an example of using above ways.Exampleimport java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.Iterator; import java.util.List; public class Tester { public static ...
