JAVA
METHODS
➢ Method is a block of code which only runs when it is called.
➢ You can pass data, known as parameters, into a method.
METHOD OVERLOADING
➢ When two or more methods in the same class have the same name but different
parameters, it’s called overloading.
METHOD OVERRIDING
➢ Method overriding occurs when a subclass (child class) has the same method as
the parent class.
OOP
➢ Object-oriented programming is about creating objects that contain both data and
methods.
CLASS
➢ Template to create objects that share common properties and methods.
ATTRIBUTE
➢ An attribute defines a particular property of an object.
CONSTRUCTORS
➢ Special method that is used to initialize objects.
➢ The constructor is called when an object of a class is created.
➢ It can be used to set initial values for object attributes.
MODIFIERS
➢ Set the access level for classes, attributes, methods and constructors.
➢ Access Modifiers - controls the access level.
➢ Non-Access Modifiers - do not control access level, but provides other
functionality.
ENCAPSULATION
➢ "Sensitive" data is hidden from users.(GET and SET).
JAVA
INHERITANCE
➢ Creating new classes based on existing ones. A class that inherits from another
class can reuse the methods.
POLYMORPHISM
➢ "Many forms", and it occurs when we have many classes that are related to each
other by inheritance.
ABSTRACTION
➢ Hiding certain details and showing only essential information to the user.
INTERFACE
➢ Specifies the behaviour of a class by providing an abstract type.
COLLECTION
➢ To represent group of individuals objects as a single entity.
COLLECTIONS
➢ It is a utility class to define several utility methods.
COLLECTION INTERFACE
➢ It defines the most common methods which is applicable for any collection object.
➢ used to pass around collections of objects where maximum generality is desired.
COLLECTION FRAMEWORKS
➢ It defines several classes and interfaces which can be used a group of individuals
objects as a single entity
List
➢ Duplicates are allowed
➢ Insertion order preserved
ARRAY LIST
➢ The ArrayList class is a resizable array, which can be found in the java.util
package.
➢ add or remove elements ,best choice for retrieval.
JAVA
LINKED LIST
➢ The LinkedList class is a collection which can contain many objects of the same
type, just like the ArrayList.
➢ best choice for insertion and deletion.
➢ set an ArrayList for storing and accessing data, and LinkedList to
manipulate data.
ITERATOR
➢ To retrieve objects one by one.
➢ Read and remove, forward direction.
ENUMERATION
➢ We can get only read access and can’t perform remove operation.
List iterator
➢ Forward and backward, read and remove.
SET
➢ Duplicates are not allowed
➢ Insertion order not preserved
SORTED SET
➢ Duplicates are not allowed
➢ Insertion order preserved
HASH SET
➢ A HashSet is a collection of items where every item is unique.
OUEUE
➢ To represent group of individuals objects prior to processing.
MAP
➢ To represent group of individuals objects as key value pairs
SORTED MAP
➢ To represent group of individuals objects as key value pairs according to sorting
order.
JAVA
Vector and Stack
➢ Vector-Resizable and growable, Synchronized.
➢ Stack-Child class of vector/LIFO.
Random Access
➢ It doesn’t contain any methods and it is a marker interface
HASH MAP
➢ Store items in "key/value" pairs.
