The StringBuilder class was added in Java 5. It has exactly the same API as the StringBuffer class, except StringBuilder is not thread safe. In other words, its methods are not synchronized. (For now just know that syncrhonized is used for thread safety and causes an overhead in terms of performance) Sun recommends that you use StringBuilder instead of StringBuffer whenever possible because StringBuilder will run faster. So apart from synchronization, anything we say about StringBuilder's methods holds true for StringBuffer's methods, and vice versa.

Here's how to create a StringBuffer instance.StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();sb.append("Add this is to the buffer");// ...Note the StringBuffer has synchronized methods so if it is only accessed in a single thread context then a StringBuilder is preferred. StringBuffer and StringBuilder both implement the Appendable and CharSequence interfaces so can be used interchangeably.
Strings are extremely useful but at the same time resource intensive too. In programs where numerous strings are used which need to be altered every now and then, it is advisable to use the StringBuffer or the StringBuilder class.The java.lang.StringBuffer and java.lang.StringBuilder classes should be used when you have to make a lot of modifications to strings of characters. As we discussed in the previous chapter, String objects are immutable, so if you choose to do a lot of manipulations with String objects, you will end up with a lot of abandoned String objects in the String pool. On the other hand, objects of type StringBuffer and StringBuilder can be modified over and over again without leaving behind a great list of discarded String objects.StringBuffer vs. StringBuilderThe StringBuilder class was added in Java 5.

In Java, you might use the StringBuffer class. Convert the integer to a StringBuffer, use the method to revert it - I believe it is revert() or something; look it up in the documentation - then print it.In Java, you might use the StringBuffer class.

In Java, String is a class that represents an immutable string, that is a sequence of characters that can never change. Any modification to the String will have to create a new String object. A StringBuffer (and in Java 1.5 and up, a StringBuilder) is a mutable string object that can be modified at runtime. The advantages of using Strings are that the String is generally lighter and faster to use where the String isn't going to change. When building a long String of text by making changes to one object over time, you should use a StringBuilder or StringBuffer (in Java 1.4 or when synchronization is important).
They are different versions. Java 5 is newer than Java 2. Think of it like the difference between the Playstation 1 and the Playstation 3.
You can create a separate string initially empty. Then using a loop, start at the end of the string and add it to the end of the other string. At the end of the loop, the other string would contain the reverse.

Unix is an operating system, Java is a language.
Java string types are immutable, meaning that once they are created they cannot be "grown" to accommodate longer strings. For example, the following code abandons and re-allocates the memory for resultString after every concatenation operation: resultString = "foo"; // Set resultString resultString += "bar"; // Abandon resultString, set as "foobar" resultString += "bash"; // Abandon again, set as "foobarbash" The point of stringbuilder is to have an object that can be grown as necessary and doesn't require reallocation. It is therefore more efficient then normal concatenation.

java is a programming language/platform that embodies object oriented programming concepts. The question of what is the difference is like asking what is the difference between cars and a Volvo.
Java doesn't have pointers. C++ has pointers.
Both are same

Windows is an operating system whereas Java is a programming language. They are entirely different.
