Definitions
Encapsulation::
Encapsulation is the mechanism that binds together code and the

data it manipulates and keeps both safe from outside interference
and misuse.
Inheritance :
Inheritance is the process by which one object acquires the properties of

another object.
Polymorphism :
Polymorphism is a feature that allows one interface to be used for a general

class of actions. The specific action is determined by the exact nature of
actions.
Code Blocks :
Two or more statements which is allowed to be grouped into blocks of code

is otherwise called as Code Blocks.This is done by enclosing the statements
between opening and closing curly braces.
Floating-point numbers:
Floating-point numbers which is also known as real numbers, are used when
evaluating expressions that require fractional precision.
Unicode:
Unicode defines a fully international character set that can represent all of
the characters found in all human languages. It is a unification of dozens of
character sets, such as Latin, Greek, Arabic and many more.
Booleans:
Java has a simple type called boolean, for logical values. It can have only on
of two possible values, true or false.
Casting:
A cast is simply an explicit type conversion. To create a conversion between

two incompatible types, you must use a cast.
Arrays:
An array is a group of like-typed variables that are referred to by a common

name. Arrays offer a convenient means of grouping related information.
Arrays of any type can be created and may have one or more dimension.
Relational Operators:
The relational operators determine the relationship that one operand has to
the other. They determine the equality and ordering.
Short-Circuit Logical Operators:
The secondary versions of the Boolean AND and OR operators are known
as short- circuit logical operators. It is represented by || and &&..
Switch:
The switch statement is Javas multiway branch statement. It provides an

easy way to dispatch execution to different parts of your code based on the
value of an experession.
Jump Statements:
Jump statements are the statements which transfer control to another part of
your program. Java Supports three jump statements: break, continue, and
return.
Instance Variables:
The data, or variable, defined within a class are called instance variable.

Data types,variables and Arrays
1) What is meant by variable?
Ans: Variables are locations in memory that can hold values. Before assigning any value
to a variable, it must be declared.
2) What are the kinds of variables in Java? What are their uses?
Ans: Java has three kinds of variables namely, the instance variable, the local variable
and the class variable.
Local variables are used inside blocks as counters or in methods as temporary variables
and are used to store information needed by a single method.
Instance variables are used to define attributes or the state of a particular object and are
used to store information needed by multiple methods in the objects.
Class variables are global to a class and to all the instances of the class and are useful for
communicating between different objects of all the same class or keeping track of global
states.
3) How are the variables declared?
Ans: Variables can be declared anywhere in the method definition and can be initialized
during their declaration.They are commonly declared before usage at the beginning of the
definition.
Variables with the same data type can be declared together. Local variables must be
given a value before usage.
4) What are variable types?
Ans: Variable types can be any data type that java supports, which includes the eight
primitive data types, the name of a class or interface and an array.
5) How do you assign values to variables?
Ans: Values are assigned to variables using the assignment operator =.
6) What is a literal? How many types of literals are there?
Ans: A literal represents a value of a certain type where the type describes how that value
behaves.There are different types of literals namely number literals, character literals,
boolean literals, string literals,etc.
7) What is an array?
Ans: An array is an object that stores a list of items.
8) How do you declare an array?
Ans: Array variable indicates the type of object that the array holds.
Ex: int arr[];
9) Java supports multidimensional arrays.
a)True
b)False
Ans: a.
10) An array of arrays can be created.
a)True
b)False
Ans: a.
11) What is a string?
Ans: A combination of characters is called as string.
12) Strings are instances of the class String.
a)True
b)False
Ans: a.
13) When a string literal is used in the program, Java automatically creates instances of
the string class.
a)True
b)False
Ans: a.
14) Which operator is to create and concatenate string?
Ans: Addition operator(+).
15) Which of the following declare an array of string objects?
1. String[ ] s;
2. String [ ]s:
3. String[ s]:
4. String s[ ]:
Ans : a, b and d
16) What is the value of a[3] as the result of the following array declaration?

3. 3
4. 4
Ans : d
17) Which of the following are primitive types?
1. byte
2. String
3. integer

18) What is the range of the char type?
1. 0 to 2 16
2. 0 to 2 15
3. 0 to 2 16-1
4. 0 to 2 15-1
Ans. d
19) What are primitive data types?
Ans : byte, short, int, long
float, double
boolean
char
20) What are default values of different primitive types?
Ans :
int - 0
short - 0
byte - 0
long - 0 l
float - 0.0 f
double - 0.0 d
boolean - false
char - null
21) Converting of primitive types to objects can be explicitly.
a)True
b)False
Ans: b.
22) How do we change the values of the elements of the array?
Ans : The array subscript expression can be used to change the values of the elements of
the array.
23) What is final varaible?
Ans : If a variable is declared as final variable, then you can not change its value. It
becomes constant.
24) What is static variable?
Ans : Static variables are shared by all instances of a class.

Operators
1) What are operators and what are the various types of operators available in Java?
Ans: Operators are special symbols used in expressions. The following are the types of
operators:
Arithmetic operators,
Assignment operators,
Increment & Decrement operators,

8) Is &&= a valid operator?
Ans : No.
9) Can a double value be cast to a byte?
Ans : Yes
10) Can a byte object be cast to a double value ?
Ans : No. An object cannot be cast to a primitive value.
11) What are order of precedence and associativity?
Ans : Order of precedence the order in which operators are evaluated in expressions.
Associativity determines whether an expression is evaluated left-right or right-left.
12) Which Java operator is right associativity?
Ans : = operator.
13) What is the difference between prefix and postfix of -- and ++ operators?
Ans : The prefix form returns the increment or decrement operation and returns the value
of the increment or decrement operation.
The postfix form returns the current value of all of the expression and then
performs the increment or decrement operation on that value.
14) What is the result of expression 5.45 + "3,2"?

Exception Handling
1) What is the difference between throw and throws ?And its application?
Ans : Exceptions that are thrown by java runtime systems can be handled by Try and

itself. If a method is capable of causing an exception that it does not
handle, it must specify this behavior so the callers of the method can guard
against that exception.

thrown, the finally block will execute even if no catch statement match the exception.
Any time a method is about to return to the caller from inside try/catch block, via an
uncaught exception or an explicit return statement, the finally clause is also execute.
5) Can we have catch block with out try block? If so when?

Catch (Exception e),
Catch (Error err),
Catch (Throwable t)

9) What is the advantage of the event-delegation model over the earlier event-inheritance
model?
Ans : The event-delegation has two advantages over the event-inheritance model. They
are :
1. It enables event handling by objects other than the ones that
generate the events. This allows a clean separation between a
components design and its use.
2. It performs much better in applications where many events
are generated. This performance improvement is due to the
fact that the event-delegation model does not have to
repeatedly process unhandled events, as is the case of the
event-inheritance model.

JDBC
1) What are the steps involved in establishing a connection?

ANSWER : This involves two steps: (1) loading the driver and (2) making the
connection.
2) How can you load the drivers?
ANSWER : Loading the driver or drivers you want to use is very simple and involves
just one line of code. If, for example, you want to use the JDBC-ODBC Bridge driver, the
following code will load it:
Eg.
Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
Your driver documentation will give you the class name to use. For instance, if the class
name is jdbc.DriverXYZ , you would load the driver with the following line of code:
Eg.
Class.forName("jdbc.DriverXYZ");
3) What Class.forName will do while loading drivers?
ANSWER : It is used to create an instance of a driver and register it with the

DriverManager.
When you have loaded a driver, it is available for making a connection with a DBMS.
4) How can you make the connection?
ANSWER : In establishing a connection is to have the appropriate driver connect to the

DBMS. The following line of code illustrates the general idea:
Eg.
String url = "jdbc:odbc:Fred";
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection(url, "Fernanda", "J8");
5) How can you create JDBC statements?
ANSWER : A Statement object is what sends your SQL statement to the DBMS. You
simply create a Statement object and then execute it, supplying the appropriate execute
method with the SQL statement you want to send. For a SELECT statement, the method
to use is executeQuery. For statements that create or modify tables, the method to use is
executeUpdate.
Eg.
It takes an instance of an active connection to create a Statement object. In the following

example, we use our Connection object con to create the Statement object stmt :
Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
6) How can you retrieve data from the ResultSet?
ANSWER : Step 1.
JDBC returns results in a ResultSet object, so we need to declare an instance of the class
ResultSet to hold our results. The following code demonstrates declaring the ResultSet
object rs.
Eg.
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT COF_NAME, PRICE FROM COFFEES");
Step2.
String s = rs.getString("COF_NAME");
The method getString is invoked on the ResultSet object rs , so getString will retrieve
(get) the value stored in the column COF_NAME in the current row of rs
7) What are the different types of Statements?
ANSWER : 1.Statement (use createStatement method) 2. Prepared Statement (Use

prepareStatement method) and 3. Callable Statement (Use prepareCall)
8) How can you use PreparedStatement?
ANSWER : This special type of statement is derived from the more general class,
Statement.If you want to execute a Statement object many times, it will normally reduce
execution time to use a PreparedStatement object instead.
The advantage to this is that in most cases, this SQL statement will be sent to the DBMS
right away, where it will be compiled. As a result, the PreparedStatement object contains
not just an SQL statement, but an SQL statement that has been precompiled. This means
that when the PreparedStatement is executed, the DBMS can just run the
PreparedStatement 's SQL statement without having to compile it first.
Eg.
PreparedStatement updateSales = con.prepareStatement("UPDATE COFFEES SET
SALES = ? WHERE COF_NAME LIKE ?");
9) What setAutoCommit does?
ANSWER : When a connection is created, it is in auto-commit mode. This means that

each individual SQL statement is treated as a transaction and will be automatically
committed right after it is executed. The way to allow two or more statements to be
grouped into a transaction is to disable auto-commit mode
Eg.
con.setAutoCommit(false);
Once auto-commit mode is disabled, no SQL statements will be committed until you call
the method commit explicitly.
Eg.
con.setAutoCommit(false);
PreparedStatement updateSales = con.prepareStatement(
"UPDATE COFFEES SET SALES = ? WHERE COF_NAME LIKE ?");
updateSales.setInt(1, 50);
updateSales.setString(2, "Colombian");
updateSales.executeUpdate();
PreparedStatement updateTotal = con.prepareStatement("UPDATE COFFEES SET

TOTAL = TOTAL + ? WHERE COF_NAME LIKE ?");
updateTotal.setInt(1, 50);
updateTotal.setString(2, "Colombian");
updateTotal.executeUpdate();
con.commit();
con.setAutoCommit(true);
10) How to call a Strored Procedure from JDBC?
ANSWER : The first step is to create a CallableStatement object. As with Statement an
and PreparedStatement objects, this is done with an open Connection
object. A CallableStatement object contains a call to a stored procedure;
Eg.
CallableStatement cs = con.prepareCall("{call SHOW_SUPPLIERS}");
ResultSet rs = cs.executeQuery();
11) How to Retrieve Warnings?
ANSWER : SQLWarning objects are a subclass of SQLException that deal with

database access warnings. Warnings do not stop the execution of an application, as
exceptions do; they simply alert the user that something did not happen as planned.
A warning can be reported on a Connection object, a Statement object (including

PreparedStatement and CallableStatement objects), or a ResultSet object. Each of these
classes has a getWarnings method, which you must invoke in order to see the first
warning reported on the calling object
Eg.
SQLWarning warning = stmt.getWarnings();
if (warning != null) {
System.out.println("\n---Warning---\n");
while (warning != null) {
System.out.println("Message: " + warning.getMessage());
System.out.println("SQLState: " + warning.getSQLState());
System.out.print("Vendor error code: ");
System.out.println(warning.getErrorCode());
System.out.println("");
warning = warning.getNextWarning();
}
12) How can you Move the Cursor in Scrollable Result Sets ?
ANSWER : One of the new features in the JDBC 2.0 API is the ability to move a result
set's cursor backward as well as forward. There are also methods that let you move the
cursor to a particular row and check the position of the cursor.
Eg.
Statement stmt = con.createStatement(ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_SENSITIVE,
ResultSet.CONCUR_READ_ONLY);
ResultSet srs = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT COF_NAME, PRICE FROM COFFEES");
The first argument is one of three constants added to the ResultSet API to indicate the
type of a ResultSet object: TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY,
TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE , and TYPE_SCROLL_SENSITIVE .
The second argument is one of two ResultSet constants for specifying whether a result set
is read-only or updatable: CONCUR_READ_ONLY and CONCUR_UPDATABLE .
The point to remember here is that if you specify a type, you must also specify whether it
is read-only or updatable. Also, you must specify the type first, and because both
parameters are of type int , the compiler will not complain if you switch the order.
Specifying the constant TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY creates a nonscrollable result set,

that is, one in which the cursor moves only forward. If you do not specify any constants
for the type and updatability of a ResultSet object, you will automatically get one that is
TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY and CONCUR_READ_ONLY
13) Whats the difference between TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE , and

TYPE_SCROLL_SENSITIVE?
ANSWER : You will get a scrollable ResultSet object if you specify one of these
ResultSet constants.The difference between the two has to do with whether a result set
reflects changes that are made to it while it is open and whether certain methods can be
called to detect these changes. Generally speaking, a result set that is
TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE does not reflect changes made while it is still open and
one that is TYPE_SCROLL_SENSITIVE does. All three types of result sets will make
changes visible if they are closed and then reopened
Eg.
Statement stmt = con.createStatement(ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE,

ResultSet.CONCUR_READ_ONLY);
ResultSet srs = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT COF_NAME, PRICE FROM COFFEES");
srs.afterLast();
while (srs.previous()) {
String name = srs.getString("COF_NAME");
float price = srs.getFloat("PRICE");
System.out.println(name + " " + price);
14) How to Make Updates to Updatable Result Sets?
ANSWER : Another new feature in the JDBC 2.0 API is the ability to update rows in a
result set using methods in the Java programming language rather than having to send an
SQL command. But before you can take advantage of this capability, you need to create a
ResultSet object that is updatable. In order to do this, you supply the ResultSet constant
CONCUR_UPDATABLE to the createStatement method.
Eg.
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mySubprotocol:mySubName");
Statement stmt = con.createStatement(ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_SENSITIVE,
ResultSet.CONCUR_UPDATABLE);
ResultSet uprs = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT COF_NAME, PRICE FROM

COFFEES");

Networking Concepts
1) The API doesn't list any constructors for InetAddress- How do I create an
InetAddress instance?
ANSWER : In case of InetAddress the three methods getLocalHost, getByName,

getByAllName can be used to create instances.
E.g.
InetAddress add1;
InetAddress add2;
try{
add1 = InetAddress.getByName("java.sun.com");
add2 = InetAddress.getByName("199.22.22.22");
}catch(UnknownHostException e){}
2) Is it possible to get the Local host IP?
ANSWER : Yes. Use InetAddress's getLocalHost method.
3) What's the Factory Method?
ANSWER : Factory methods are merely a convention whereby static methods in a class
return an instance of that class. The InetAddress class has no visible constructors. To
create an InetAddress object, you have to use one of the available factory methods. In
InetAddress the three methods getLocalHost, getByName, getByAllName can be used to
create instances of InetAddress.
4) Whats the difference between TCP and UDP?
ANSWER : These two protocols differ in the way they carry out the action of
communicating. A TCP protocol establishes a two way connection between a pair of
computers, while the UDP protocol is a one-way message sender. The common analogy
is that TCP is like making a phone call and carrying on a two-way communication, while
UDP is like mailing a letter.
5) What is the Proxy Server?
ANSWER : A proxy server speaks the client side of a protocol to another server. This is
often required when clients have certain restrictions on which servers they can connect to.
And when several users are hitting a popular web site, a proxy server can get the contents
of the web server's popular pages once, saving expensive internetwork transfers while
providing faster access to those pages to the clients.
Also, we can get multiple connections for a single server.
6) What are the seven layers of OSI model?
ANSWER : Application, Presentation, Session, Transport, Network, DataLink, Physical

Layer.
7) What Transport Layer does?
ANSWER : It ensures that the mail gets to its destination. If a packet fails to get its
destination, it handles the process of notifying the sender and requesting that another
packet be sent.
8) What is DHCP?
ANSWER : Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, a piece of the TCP/IP protocol suite
that handles the automatic assignment of IP addresses to clients.
9) What is SMTP?
ANSWER : Simple Mail Transmission Protocol, the TCP/IP Standard for Internet mails.
SMTP exchanges mail between servers; contrast this with POP, which transmits mail
between a server and a client.
10) In OSI N/w architecture, the dialogue control and token management are
responsibilities of...
a) Network b) Session c) Application d) DataLink
ANSWER : b) Session Layer.
11) In OSI N/W Architecture, the routing is performed by ______
a) Network b) Session c) Application d) DataLink
Answer : Network Layer.

Networking
1) What is the difference between URL instance and URLConnection instance?
ANSWER : A URL instance represents the location of a resource, and a URLConnection

instance represents a link for accessing or communicating with the resource at the
location.
2) How do I make a connection to URL?
ANSWER : You obtain a URL instance and then invoke openConnection on it.
URLConnection is an abstract class, which means you can't directly create instances of it
using a constructor. We have to invoke openConnection method on a URL instance, to
get the right kind of connection for your URL.
Eg. URL url;
URLConnection connection;
try{ url = new URL("...");
conection = url.openConnection();
}catch (MalFormedURLException e) { }
3) What Is a Socket?
A socket is one end-point of a two-way communication link between two programs

running on the network. A socket is bound to a port number so that the TCP layer can
identify the application that data is destined to be sent.Socket classes are used to
represent the connection between a client program and a server program. The java.net
package provides two classes--Socket and ServerSocket--which implement the client side
of the connection and the server side of the connection, respectively.
4) What information is needed to create a TCP Socket?
ANSWER : The Local Systems IP Address and Port Number. And the Remote System's
IPAddress and Port Number.
5) What are the two important TCP Socket classes?
ANSWER : Socket and ServerSocket.
ServerSocket is used for normal two-way socket communication. Socket class allows us
to read and write through the sockets. getInputStream() and getOutputStream() are the
two methods available in Socket class.
6) When MalformedURLException and UnknownHostException throws?
ANSWER : When the specified URL is not connected then the URL throw
MalformedURLException and If InetAddress methods getByName and getLocalHost
are unabletoresolve the host name they throwan UnknownHostException.

Servlets
1) What is the servlet?
ANSWER : Servlets are modules that extend request/response-oriented servers, such as

Java-enabled web servers. For example, a servlet might be responsible for taking data in
an HTML order-entry form and applying the business logic used to update a company's
order database.
Servlets are to servers what applets are to browsers. Unlike applets, however, servlets
have no graphical user interface.
2) Whats the advantages using servlets than using CGI?
ANSWER : Servlets provide a way to generate dynamic documents that is both easier to
write and faster to run. Servlets also address the problem of doing server-side
programming with platform-specific APIs: they are developed with the Java Servlet API,
a standard Java extension.
3) What are the uses of Servlets?
ANSWER : A servlet can handle multiple requests concurrently, and can synchronize
requests. This allows servlets to support systems such as on-line conferencing.
Servlets can forward requests to other servers and servlets.Thus servlets can be used to
balance load among several servers that mirror the same content, and to partition a single
logical service over several servers, according to task type or organizational boundaries.
4) Which pakage provides interfaces and classes for writing servlets?
ANSWER : javax
5) Whats the Servlet Interfcae?
ANSWER : The central abstraction in the Servlet API is the Servlet interface. All
servlets implement this interface, either directly or, more commonly, by extending a class
that implements it such as HttpServlet.
Servlets-->Generic Servlet-->HttpServlet-->MyServlet.
The Servlet interface declares, but does not implement, methods that manage the servlet
and its communications with clients. Servlet writers provide some or all of these methods
when developing a servlet.
6) When a servlet accepts a call from a client, it receives two objects- What are
they?
ANSWER : ServeltRequest: Which encapsulates the communication from the client to
the server. ServletResponse: Whcih encapsulates the communication from the servlet
back to the client. ServletRequest and ServletResponse are interfaces defined by the
javax.servlet package.
7) What information that the ServletRequest interface allows the servlet access to?
ANSWER : Information such as the names of the parameters passed in by the client, the
protocol (scheme) being used by the client, and the names of the remote host that made
the request and the server that received it.
The input stream, ServletInputStream.Servlets use the input stream to get data from
clients that use application protocols such as the HTTP POST and PUT methods.
8) What information that the ServletResponse interface gives the servlet methods
for replying to the client?
ANSWER : It Allows the servlet to set the content length and MIME type of the reply.
Provides an output stream, ServletOutputStream and a Writer through which the servlet
can send the reply data.
9) What is the servlet Lifecycle?
ANSWER : Each servlet has the same life cycle:
A server loads and initializes the servlet (init())
The servlet handles zero or more client requests (service())
The server removes the servlet (destroy())
(some servers do this step only when they shut down)
10) How HTTP Servlet handles client requests?
ANSWER : An HTTP Servlet handles client requests through its service method. The
service method supports standard HTTP client requests by dispatching each request to a
method designed to handle that request.
