46 to 50 Java Questions

A constructor is a special method whose task is to initialize the object of its class. It is special because its name is the same as the class name. They do not have return types, not even void and therefore they cannot return values. They cannot be inherited, though a derived class can call the base class constructor. Constructor is invoked whenever an object of its associated class is created.

47. What is an Iterator ?

Iterators let you process each element of a Collection.
Iterators are a generic way to go through all the elements of a Collection no matter how it is organized.

48. What is the List interface?
The List interface provides support for ordered collections of objects.
Lists may contain duplicate elements.

49. What is memory leak?
A memory leak is where an unreferenced object that will never be used again still hangs around in memory and doesnt get garbage collected.

50. What is the difference between the prefix and postfix forms of the ++ operator?

Example of Check box in AWT
