great video ! it would be helpful if these videos have time or question markers, to get to certain clips, or at least write the questions in the description, awesome channel@@Javatechie

[@VaibhavYaramwar-rc7kl]

I think using ListIterator as well , We can able to modify List Object while iterating it as well. But only catch with ListIterator, Origin List should be created like List listObj = new ArrayList(). Meaning Origine List should not be fixed size List. For Example, For below mentioned Example, We will get java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException public class FailSafeIterationDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { List list = Arrays.asList("1","2"); ListIterator listIterator = list.listIterator(); while (listIterator.hasNext()) { String element = (String) listIterator.next(); listIterator.add("Z"); System.out.println(element); } System.out.println(list); } } But for another similar example, Mentioned as below , It will run perfectly fine without any Exception. public class FailSafeIterationDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { List list = new ArrayList(); list.add("1"); list.add("2"); ListIterator listIterator = list.listIterator(); while (listIterator.hasNext()) { String element = (String) listIterator.next(); listIterator.add("Z"); System.out.println(element); } System.out.println(list); } }

One thing to notice here, as string having immutability nature makes it Thread safe.

Hi basant, if possible can your please make notes of it and please share ppt

String s1 = "Hello"; s1.concat(" World!"); It will print "Hello" if we assign s1 = s1.concat(" World!"); ---> Hello World! similarly s1 = s1 + " World!"; it will print ---> Hello World! untill we assign variable after concatenarion it will not concatenate.

[@mericet39]

If you've been developing in Java so many years, it is possible to know all of this and still flunk the interview questions. For example, I was wondering "Pillar of oops? WTF does THAT mean?" Then when you started to explain, I realised I knew all those concepts but just not the label "pillar of oops"

[@Javatechie]

Pillars of oops or key component of oops this kind of word usually interviewer used

[@nikitaparmar1190]

[@norulshahlamjohn1140]

giving an answer by coding it makes understanding better and deeply engrained by just watching. you sir are a diamond. but when i saw the boilerplate codes in your pojo i know you are an old-fashioned guy lol. also, comparator() is considered 'deprecated' since we are using streams api. do people still use that?

[@Javatechie]

First of all thank you for your words and BTW I am not an old fashion guy 🤪. It's just interview questions where they will check your basic understanding that's why I have explained the comparator

[@niveditamirjikar409]

Why can't we provide constructor for abstraction? Only by creating objects we can call getter and setter methods of item class why is this best approach?
