Hello guys, welcome to my blog. Today, we'll discuss another interesting Java interview question, BufferedReader vs Scanner. It's not only important from an interview point of view but also to work efficiently with Java. Even though both BufferedReader and Scanner can read a file or user input from the command prompt in Java, there are some significant differences between them. One of the main differences between BufferedReader and Scanner class is that the former class is meant to just read String or text data while the Scanner class is meant to both read and parse text data into Java primitive types like int, short, float, double, and long. --- Java Interview questions and tutorials

You can join two threads in Java by using the join() method from java.lang.Thread class. Why do you join threads? because you want one thread to wait for another before starts processing. It's like a relay race where the second runner waits until the first runner comes and hands over the flag to him. Remember, unlike sleep(), join() is not a static method so you need an object of java.lang.Thread class to call this method. Now, who calls and who wants, and which thread dies? for example, if you have two threads in your program main thread and the T1 which you have created.  --- Java Interview questions and tutorials

Today we're going to learn about how to stop a thread in Java. It's easy to start a thread in Java because you have a start() method but it's difficult to stop the thread because there is no working stop() method. Well, there was a stop() method in Thread class, when Java was first released but that was deprecated later. In today's Java version, You can stop a thread by using a boolean volatile variable.  If you remember, threads in Java start execution from the run() method and stop, when it comes out of the run() method, either normally or due to any exception. You can leverage this property to stop the thread.  --- Java Interview questions and tutorials

Hello Java Programmers, how are you doing? Hope you are doing well. It's been a long since  I shared a core Java interview question in this blog, so let's start with that. Earlier I have shared one of the frequently asked questions in Java, can we make an abstract class final in Java and my readers really liked it and asked for more such questions. So, today I am going to talk about whether you can create an instance of an Abstract class in Java or not? This is another interesting core Java question that you will find on telephonic interviews, a written test that has multiple-choice questions and most notably Oracle certified Java programmer certification like OCAJP 8  and OCAJP 11. --- Java Interview questions and tutorials

throw vs throws in Java throw and throws are two Java keywords related to the Exception feature of the Java programming language. If you are writing a Java program and familiar with What is Exception in Java, it's a good chance that you are aware of What is throw and throws in Java. In this Java tutorial, we will compare throw vs throws and see some worth noting differences between throw and throws in Java. Exception handling is an important part of the Java programming language which enables you to write robust programs. There are five keywords related to Exception handling in Java like try, catch, finally, throw, and throws. --- Java Interview questions and tutorials

The Date and Time API is a significant one for day-to-day Java development work, but many interviewers don't ask enough questions on this topic. Most of the questions are based on either Java Collection framework like  HashMap, ConcurrentHashMap, or ArrayList or multi-threading concepts like volatile, synchronized, and atomic variables. This is not good, and many interviewers have realized that a good understanding of date and time API is also important for a good Java developer. That's the main reason for increasing date, time, and calendar-based Java interview questions in recent times, particularly in the last couple of years. --- Java Interview questions and tutorials

Java Developer Interviews are very different than traditional software developer interviews. You can clear a Java interview without even writing a single line of code, Yes, this is true, you can become a Java developer without someone asking you to write a function in a Java interview. Though it's not the case everywhere and many companies are increasingly including a coding test in their Java developer interview process, but there are many companies and start-ups where you can get a Java job without writing a single line of code. All you need to do is learn those popular Java questions, which have been asked for ages, and mostly test whether a candidate is familiar with essential Java concepts or not like abstract class and interface.  --- Java Interview questions and tutorials

When the experience of a Java Programmer grows in the years e.g. when it goes from beginner years ( 2 to 4) to more experience or sort of senior level ( 5 to 7 years), Core Java Interview Questions also change a bit. Of course, basics like data structure, algorithms, and object-oriented programming remains the same, but types of questions will become more advanced and their answers will definitely need to be more detailed and accurate. I often receive queries about core Java questions asked to a senior developer with 5 to 6-year experience, or, sometimes, I am going for an interview of a senior Java developer, what kind of questions I should expect.  --- Java Interview questions and tutorials
