Once you compile a code on Java, it can run on any device if Java Runtime Environment (JRE) is installed in them. Therefore, most businesses develop their enterprise applications on the Java environment and need Java developers to help them deploy and develop the applications for the clients. According to the TIOBE index, Java is the third most popular programming language globally. And it has a simpler learning curve with a highly readable script. A

4. 02 Difference between .equals() method and equality operator(==) in Java? The .equals() method is defined in the Object class, while equality (==) is binary operator. The equality operator(==) compares the reference or memory location of objects in bulk. On the contrary, the .equals() method verifies the comparison of values in the objects while the equality operator verifies reference comparisons. Plus, you cannot override the equality operator. But it is possible to overwrite the .equals() method under special circumstances. A

It is available within the method, and other methods in the class are unaware of its existence.  A

6. 03 What is ClassLoader? 04 ClassLoader, a subsystem of Java Virtual Machine, is an abstract class responsible for loading class files while running a Java program. Security managers use these ClassLoaders to indicate security domains with a program. There are three built-in ClassLoaders in Java - Bootstrap ClassLoader, Extension ClassLoader, and System/Application ClassLoader. A

7. Bootstrap ClassLoader • It is the first ClassLoader, a superclass of Extension classloader, that loads rt.jar file containing the class files of Java Standard Edition such as java.net package classes and java.io package classes.  • Extension ClassLoader • It is the child ClassLoader of Bootstrap and parent ClassLoader of System ClassLoader. The extension ClassLoader runs the jar files located inside $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext directory. • System/Application ClassLoader:  • It is the third layer of classloader hierarchy and a child ClassLoader of Extension. It loads the class files from the classpath set to the current directory. One can use the "-cp" or "-classpath" switch to change the classpath. 

8. 03 How to reverse a string in Java? 05 According to experienced coding bootcamp instructors, to reverse a string in Java, one must first convert it to a StringBuilder (a mutable string) which comes with an inbuilt function called reverse(). This function reverses the string and returns the desired output. Lastly, convert the reversed StringBuilder to String using the inbuilt function toString(). One can also use the XOR operation or traditional for loop to complete the job. A
