Here’s a Basic Java Interview Questions & Answers guide to help you

prepare for entry-level or junior Java developer roles. This list covers core
Java concepts commonly asked in interviews:

✅ 1. What is Java?

Java is a high-level, object-oriented programming language developed by


Sun Microsystems (now owned by Oracle). It is platform-independent
due to the Java Virtual Machine (JVM).

✅ 2. What are the main features of Java?

 Object-Oriented

 Platform Independent

 Simple and Secure

 Robust and Multithreaded

 Architecture-neutral

 High performance (via Just-In-Time compiler)

 3. What is the JVM, JRE, and JDK?

Term Description
JVM (Java Virtual Machine) Executes Java bytecode
JRE (Java Runtime Environment) JVM + Libraries to run Java apps
JDK (Java Development Kit) JRE + Development tools (compiler, debugger, etc.)
4. What is the difference between == and .equals() in Java?

 == compares object references (memory addresses).

 .equals() compares object content/values (when overridden


properly, especially in String, Integer, etc.).

✅ 5. What is a Class and an Object?

 Class: A blueprint for creating objects (e.g., Car).

 Object: An instance of a class (e.g., Car myCar = new Car();).

✅ 6. What are constructors in Java?


Constructors are special methods used to initialize objects. They have
the same name as the class and no return type.

✅ 7. What is Inheritance in Java?

Inheritance allows a class to inherit properties and methods from


another class.

class Animal {

void eat() { System.out.println("Eating"); }

class Dog extends Animal {

void bark() { System.out.println("Barking"); }

8. What is Polymorphism?

Polymorphism means one name, many forms. It allows you to use a


method in different ways:

 Compile-time (method overloading)

 Runtime (method overriding)

✅ 9. What is Abstraction?

Abstraction is hiding implementation details and showing only essential


features. Achieved using:

 Abstract classes

 Interfaces

✅ 10. What is Encapsulation?

Encapsulation is the process of binding data and methods into a single


unit (class) and restricting access using access modifiers (private,
public, etc.).
