Following is the list of Interview / Viva questions on Advanced Java which can be asked in Job interviews or Oral exams:
1. What is the significance or what is the use of these data structures in Java: Enumeration, BitSet, Vector, Stack, Dictionary, Hashtable, Properties.
Ans: Check link https://www.tutorialspoint.com/java/java_data_structures.htm
2. What is the similarity between HashMap, Hashtable and Properties data stuctures?
Ans: HashMap, Hashtable, Properties, all these data structures are used to save data in terms of pair (Key, Value).
Though, they are used for same purpose, there are some differences in their working.
3. What is the difference between HashMap and Hashtable data stuctures?
Ans: HashMap data structures are not synchronized while Hashtable data structures can be synchronized among the different threads.
4. How Properties data structure is different from HashMap and Hashtable data stuctures?
Ans: Properties data structure saves the values in terms of Key-Value pairs like HashMap and Hashtable; but Properties have some extra features like, Properties class has some methods by which we can save its values into text or xml file. Also we can read values from text or xml file and allocate them to Properties.
5. What is Collections Framework in Java?
Ans: Check Link https://www.comrevo.com/2018/07/What-is-Collections-Framework-in-Java.html
6. What is the difference between List and Set data structures?
Ans: List allows duplicate elements; in the sense, List can have same element multiple times. Set does not have duplicate elements i.e. all elements of Set are unique.
7. What is the difference between HashSet, LinkedHashSet and TreeSet data structures?
Ans: Set inteface is implemented in classes HashSet, LinkedHashSet, TreeSet. All these classes stores unique elements. HashSet stores the elements in random sequence. LinkedHashSet stores the elements in the order of their insertion. TreeSet stores the elements in their increasing order.
8. What is the difference between HashMap, LinkedHashMap and TreeMap data structures?
Ans: Map interface is implemented in classes HashMap, LinkedHashMap, TreeMap. All these classes stores elements in terms of key-value pair. HashMap stores the elements in random sequence.

Ans: In computer network, socket is an end point for sending and receiving data. It is combination of IP address and Port number.
11. Explain the different types of Sockets (Stream Sockets, Datagram Sockets, Raw Sockets, Sequenced Packet Sockets).
Ans: Stream Sockets: They are also known as Connection-oriented sockets. They uses TCP (Transmission Control Protocol), SCTP (Stream Control Transmission Protocol), DCCP (Datagram Congestion Control Protocol).
Datagram Sockets: They are also known as Connection-less Sockets. They uses UDP (User Datagram Protocol).
Raw Sockets: They are used in routers. Here, transport layer is bypassed i.e. there in no port number, only IP address.
Sequenced Packet Sockets: They are similar to Stream sockets with the exception that record boundaries are preserved.
12. What do you mean by Port Number? What is the size of port number (in terms of bits)?
Ans: Port numbers are 16 bit unsigned integers.
13. What are the different types of port numbers? What is their range?
Ans: 0 to 1023 (Well Known Ports): these port numbers are reserved by IANA for special services e.g. FTP: 20 & 21, Telnet: 23, HTTP: 80
1024 to 49151 (Registered Ports): these port numbers can be registered by companies / organisations with IANA. e.g. Mysql uses port number 3306, Apache Tomcat uses: 8080
49152 to 65535 (Dynamic or Private Ports): These ports can not be be registered with IANA. These port numbers can be used by anyone for their applications.
