Difference between Set and List in Java

Set:

1. A set represents a collection of elements . Order of the elements may change in the set.
2. Set will not allow duplicate values to be stored.
3. Accessing elements by their index(position number) is not possible in case of sets.
4.Sets will not allow null elements.

List:

1. A List represents ordered collection of elements . List preserves the order of elements in
which they are entered.
2. List will allow duplicate value.
3.Accessing elements by index is possible in lists.
4. Lists allow null elements to be stored.

Difference between HashMap and Hashtable in Java

HashMap:

1. HashMap object is not synchronized by default.
2. In case of a single thread , using HashMap is faster than the Hashtable.
3. HashMap allows null keys and null values to be stored.
4. Iterator in the HashMap is fail-fast . This means iterator will produce exception if concurrent
updates are made to the HashMap.
5. We can make HashMap object synchronied using synchronizedMap() method as:

Collections.synchronizedMap(new HashMap())

Hashtable:

1. Hashtable object is synchronized by default.
2.In case fo multiple threads , using Hashtable is advisable. With a single thread, Hashtable
becomes slow.
3.Hashtable does not allow null keys or values.
4.Enumeration for the Hashtable is not fail-fast. This means even if concurrent updations
are done to to Hashtable, there will not be any incorrect results produced by the Enumeration.

Difference between ArrayList and Vector in Java

ArrayList:
---------------
1.Array List object is not synchronized by default.
2.In case of a single thread ,using ArrayList is faster than the vector.
3.ArrayList increases its size every time by 50 percent(half).

4. We can synchronize Arraylist using synchronizedList() mehtod as:

List  l = Collections.SynchronizedList(new ArrayList());

Vector:
--------
1.Vector object is synchronized by default.
2. In case of multiple threads, using Vector is advisable. With a single  thread,
   Vector becomes slow.
3. Vector increases its size every time by doubling it.

difference between sleep() and wait() in Java

Both the sleep() and wait() methods are used to suspend a thread execution for a specified time.
When sleep() is executed inside a synchronized block, the object is still under lock .

When wait() method is executed,it breaks the synchronized block , so that the object lock is removed
and it is available.

Generally , sleep() is used for making a thread to wait for some time.But wait() is used in connection
with notify()  or notifyAll() methods in thread communication.

sleep method present in Thread class, wait method present in Object class.
sleep method is static , wait is non static method

Difference between Abstract class and Interface

Abstract Class
==========
1.An abstract class can have method body (non-abstract methods).
2.An abstract class can have instance variables.
3.An abstract class can have constructor.
4.An abstract class can have static methods.
5.You can extends one abstract class.

ex:
publlic abstract class TxnCommand
{

public abstract void  show();

public void calculate()
{
//Method Implimentatiion;
}

}

Interface
=======
1.Interface have only abstract methods.
2.An interface cannot have instance variables.
3.Interface cannot have constructor.
4.Interface cannot have static methods.
5.You can implement multiple interfaces.

ex:

public

interface CommonCommand

{

public static final int i = 10;
public abstract void  show();

}
