Answer / Roop Kishor
doGet() and doPost() are methods in Servlets used to handle HTTP requests. The main differences are:n
1. Request Data:n- doGet() gets request data from the URL query string.n- doPost() gets request data from the body of the HTTP request, which may be more secure as it's not visible in the URL.n
2. Encoding:n- GET requests are typically stateless and safe, so they should use ASCII characters only. If needed, special characters can be URL encoded.n- POST requests can handle more data and non-ASCII characters without being encoded.
3. Default Behavior:n- A new doGet() request is processed even if it's the same as a previous one (idempotent).n- A new doPost() request results in a new servlet instance (not idempotent).
