Java Collection Framework - Map Interface
The Map interface is not an extension of Collection
interface. Instead the interface starts of it?s own
interface hierarchy, for maintaining key-value associations.
The interface describes a mapping from keys to values,
without duplicate keys, by defination.
The Map interface follows.
public interface Map<K,V> {
// Basic operations
V put(K key, V value);
V get(Object key);
V remove(Object key);
boolean containsKey(Object key);
boolean containsValue(Object value);
int size();
boolean isEmpty();
// Bulk operations
void putAll(Map<? extends K, ? extends V> m);
void clear();
// Collection Views
public Set<K> keySet();
public Collection<V> values();
public Set<Map.Entry<K,V>> entrySet();
// Interface for entrySet elements
public interface Entry {
K getKey();
V getValue();
V setValue(V value);
}
}

In this section, Some 7 n's were asked. 1. What is the difference b/w sleep(1000) and wait(1000) 2. what is the diff b/w static block and static function? 3. Write a program to validate IP address using string tokenizer. 4. Write a program to create singleton class 5. write a function to reverse the string 6. Write a prog to print prime nos upto n. EX: If n=9, It shld print 1,2,3,5,7 7. One program on collections- Write a program to print no. of times a number is repeating in an array. EX- {1,3,1,2,5,7,3,7,34,3,8,3} It should print: 1- 2 times 3- 4 times and so on 7. Write a func to print fibonocci series After this I had technical interview, which went on for. 60 mins or so. There were qn's about multi threading, Exception handling and collection classes. Knowledge about collections was very important for the post I was interviewed for.
