Interview Questions

A Bank Reconciliation Statement is a statement prepared periodically by a customer to explain the divergence (difference) between the bank balance as per cash book and the bank balance as per Pass Book. It clearly shows the two differing balances and the outstanding items which causes the balances to disagree.

The objective of preparing such a statement is to know the causes of differences between the two balances and pass necessary correcting or adjusting entries in the books of the firm. But it is to be noted that some differences are automatically adjusted. For example - A cheque that has been sent for collection, but not yet collected, causes a difference between the balance as shown by the pass book and the balance as shown by the cash book, but no adjusting entry is required in the cash book for such a difference because, the bank will credit the firm’s account as soon as the cheque is collected.

To create directory on the HD we use mkDir() method:

boolean mkDir();

This method returns true if the directory is created on HD

This method returns false if the directory is already existing on HD

The android system will keep all the process that are hosting the services together at one place till the time the service is not started or connected to the client. The priority of the process is divided when running low on memory or when the process has to be killed. The process lifecycle is as follows:
- The service is running currently then the methods onCreate(), onStartCommand(), and onDestroy()methods, will run in the foreground to execute the process without being killed.
- The service is already started then the process can be considered as less important then the processes that are currently visible and used. This is done as there are only few processes that are visible to the users on the screen.
- The clients are bounded to the services they are providing requires more priority in the execution list.
- The service that is started uses startForeground(int, Notification)API to allow all the services to run in the foreground state. The system considers only the services where the user is still active as the services not to be killed.

- The Set interface provides methods for accessing the elements of a finite mathematical set

- Sets do not allow duplicate elements

- Contains no methods other than those inherited from Collection

- It adds the restriction that duplicate elements are prohibited

- Two Set objects are equal if they contain the same elements

A Manifest file is a simple text file that tells the browser what to cache and what not to cache. 

There are three sections of a Manifest file:

i.) CACHE MANIFEST - Files listed here are cached after they are downloaded for the first time. 

ii.) NETWORK - Files listed here require a connection to the server, and are never cached

iii.) FALLBACK - Files listed here specify fallback pages if a page is inaccessible

By asking this the interviewer want to know how much will you obey and obedient to your respective authorities.

Example answer :

Say that you deal with authority as you deal with customers - with integrity, professionalism and politeness.

Use Interfaces when…

- You see that something in your design will change frequently.

- If various implementations only share method signatures then it is better to use Interfaces.

- You need some classes to use some methods which you don't want to be included in the class, then you go for the interface, which makes it easy to just implement and make use of the methods defined in the interface.

Use Abstract Class when…

- If various implementations are of the same kind and use common behavior or status then abstract class is better to use.

- When you want to provide a generalized form of abstraction and leave the implementation task with the inheriting subclass.

- Abstract classes are an excellent way to create planned inheritance hierarchies. They're also a good choice for nonleaf classes in class hierarchies.

"==" checks equality only,
"===" checks for equality as well as the type.
