Java Viva Questions & Answers - CSE310

Unit I - Java Basics

Q: What are the features of Java?

A: - Object-Oriented

- Platform Independent

- Simple and Secure

- Robust and Multithreaded

- High Performance

- Dynamic and Distributed

Q: Explain the role of JVM in Java.

A: JVM interprets bytecode into machine code, ensuring platform independence.

Q: Difference between JDK, JRE, and JVM?

A: - JDK: Development Kit (includes JRE + tools)

- JRE: Runtime Environment (includes JVM + libraries)

- JVM: Executes Java bytecode

Q: What is the default value of primitive data types?

A: int: 0, float: 0.0f, char: '\u0000', boolean: false

Q: How is `switch` different from `if-else`?

A: `switch` checks equality; `if-else` handles ranges and complex logic.

Unit II - Arrays, Enums & OOP

Q: Difference between `while` and `do-while`?

A: `while` checks condition first; `do-while` runs once before checking.

Q: Initialize a 2D array?

A: int[][] arr = new int[3][3];


Java Viva Questions & Answers - CSE310

Q: Constructor overloading?

A: Using multiple constructors with different parameters:

class Student {

Student() {}

Student(String name) {}

Q: Purpose of `this` keyword?

A: Refers to current class instance to resolve variable name conflicts.

Unit III - Inheritance & Interfaces

Q: Difference between method overloading and overriding?

A: Overloading: Same name, different parameters

Overriding: Same method in subclass

Q: Use of `super` keyword?

A: Calls superclass constructor or method.

Q: Can we instantiate abstract class?

A: No, we cannot create objects of abstract class.

Unit IV - Lambda & Nested Classes

Q: What is a functional interface?

A: Interface with one abstract method. Example: Runnable, Comparator

Q: Use of lambda expressions?

A: Concise syntax to implement functional interfaces. Runnable r = () -> System.out.println("Hi");

Q: Static vs non-static nested classes?

A: Static: no outer instance needed.


Java Viva Questions & Answers - CSE310

Non-static: requires outer class instance.

Unit V - I/O, Generics

Q: How to serialize an object?

A: Implement Serializable and use ObjectOutputStream.

Q: Use of generics in Java?

A: Enable type safety and avoid type casting.

Q: What are bounded type parameters?

A: Use <T extends ClassName> to restrict types.

Unit VI - Collections & JDBC

Q: ArrayList vs LinkedList?

A: ArrayList: Fast access, slow insert/delete

LinkedList: Fast insert/delete, slow access

Q: JDBC connection code?

A: Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection(url, "user", "pass");

Q: Comparable vs Comparator?

A: Comparable: implemented in class

Comparator: separate class with compare() method
