Java / Operators
1. What is the difference between the >> and >>> operators?
>> >>> ">>" is a signed right shift. ">>>" is an unsigned right shift....
2. What is the difference between the Boolean & operator and the && operator?
& && & is the "bit-wise AND" operator. && is the "conditional logical AND" operator.
3. Explain Diamond Operator in Java.
<> denotes the diamond operator. Purpose of the diamond operator is to simplify instantiation of generic classes....
4. Write a Java program to generate a random number between 0 to 99.
The below program uses the current time in milliseconds and apply modulo operator to pick a random number between 0 to 99. public class RandomNumberGen { public static void main (String [] args) { long start_time = System.currentTimeMillis(); System.out.println(start_time %...
5. What is the difference between ++i and i++ under increment operators?
In ++i, the value of i will get incremented before it is used in the expression. In i++, the previous value is used in the expression first, and after that i is modified and incremented.
6. What are Bitwise Logical Operators?
&, |, ^, and ~ are bitwise logical operators.
7. What is the difference between the Boolean & operator and the && operator?
For Boolean arguments, & works as the (unconditional) "logical AND" operator "&" always evaluates both arguments. "&&" is defined for two boolean arguments....
8. Is ++i faster than i++ in for-loops in Java?
No, it is just same. in C/C++, it is considered ++i is faster as i++ involves coping it to temporarily variable.
9. Alternative to calculate modulo for power of 2 in Java.
Instead of modulo or reminder operator (%) in Java, we may use & bit wise AND operator if N is a power of 2. For example, to calculate x % 2, since 2 is power of 1, we may use...
