Here you will learn about hashcode in Java. Hash code is an integer returned by hashCode() method. It has many advantages in different applications in java. Let us see how this method is giving hash code, how it is useful and what is the significance in java? What is HashCode in Java? Based on hash code we can keep objects in hash buckets. Some algorithms or data structures will use these hash buckets. Mostly hash based data structures like hashmap,

Platform Independence: It means if we have written a program it should run on any platform without any modifications. Platform means hardware + operating system. Why Java is Platform Independent Language? Java package is coming with JDK (Java Runtime Environment) and JRE (Java Runtime Environment). JDK will be useful for developing and compiling java code.

We know that java is really popular and widely used language. Security is the prime factor for java popularity. Lets discuss about the reasons why it is so secure. Image Source Why Java is Secure Language? Own Memory Management Java has its own memory management mechanism. It has automatic garbage collection system. User need
Read moreHere you will learn about difference between method overloading and method overriding in java with program examples. When a class have methods with same name but different arguments list then it is called method overloading. On the other hand if two classes (parent and child) have methods with same name and same arguments list then it is called method overriding. There are various other differences between them that are discussed below in tabular form. Difference between Method Overloading and Method
Read moreIn this tutorial you will learn about difference between throw and throws keywords in java with example. When we run a java program which contains errors, programmers should handle errors by exception handling (using try, catch and finally blocks) or avoid (throw) it. Otherwise JVM will give error which causes the termination of the running program and loss of data that has been processed till that line of the program. Throw and Throws are two keywords used in java syntax
Read moreThis tutorial will help you to learn the difference between JDK, JRE and JVM. JDK Java Development Kit (JDK) is a kit which provides the environment to develop and execute java programs. It is the superset of JRE (Java Runtime Environment) and includes tools for developing, debugging and monitoring the java applications. JDK includes two things: Development Tools: To provide an environment to develop your java programs. JRE: To execute your java program. Development part is the one, which contains
Read moreMarker interface in Java is an empty interface having no fields or methods. Simply we can say that it’s an interface which is used to convey the JVM that a class executing an interface of this category will have some special behavior. Need for Marker Interface 1. Marker interface in java is used to point out to JVM that the class implementing marker interface will have some special characteristics. 2. Marker interface also endow a way to associate metadata with
Read moreHere you will learn about difference between arraylist and linkedlist in java i.e. arraylist vs linkedlist. Both ArrayList and LinkedList are similar in many ways like both implement List interface and are non-synchronized. But still there are various differences between them which I have discussed below. Also Read: Difference between ArrayList and Vector in Java Image Source Difference between ArrayList and LinkedList in Java ArrayList LinkedList Implementation ArrayList internally implements dynamic array to store elements. LinkedList internally implements doubly linked list
