Java: Beginner Guide to Multithreading

a thread...

Multithreading is a concept of applying multitasking in Java.

Java supports thread-based multitasking.

Java program can be divided into several threads and those threads can be executed in parallel to support multi-tasking.

Two ways to create a thread in Java:

1. By Implementing Runnable Interface
2. By extending the Thread class

Let's create a thread by implementing the "Runnable" interface:

Steps:
1. Implement Runnable Interface
2. Override the run() method, and put your code inside it.
3. Pass the instance of your class to the Thread class constructor.
4. Call the start() method to run your thread.

Let's create a thread by extending the "Thread" class:

Steps:
1. Extend your class with Thread class
2. Override the run() method, and put your code inside it.
3. Instantiate your class.
4. Call the start() method to run your thread.

Out of the above approaches, it is always advisable to use the first approach(By implementing a Runnable Interface) to create the threads in Java.

Because it's an Interface, you can also extend other classes in the future and also implement other interfaces.

Lifecycle of thread:

It has 5 different phases in its lifecycle:
1. New
2. Runnable
3. Running
4. Waiting
5. Dead

Few Important Methods of Thread Class:

run() - Actual task of the thread is defined here.
start() - Starts the thread
join() - Wait for thread to die.
setName() - Give name to our thread.
getName() - Returns the thread name.

setPriority() - Sets the priority to thread.
getPriority() - Returns the priority.
getState() - Returns the state of thread.
isAlive() - checks if thread is alive or not

and a few more...

Conclusion:

We can use Multithreading in order to boost the performance of our program.

If our program has independent units, we can run those independent code blocks into a separate thread.

They can run parallel and process faster than normal.

Five Different Ways to Create Objects in Java

a thread...

1. Using a new keyword.

It's the most popular one. We create an object by using a new operator followed by a constructor call.

Eg:

2. Using the newInstance() method of class "Class":

Eg:

3️. Using the newInstance() method in class "Constructor":

Eg:

Note:

Both the above ways (Shown in 2 and 3),
are known as reflective ways of creating objects.

Fun-fact:

Class's newInstance() method internally uses Constructor's newInstance() method.

Java: Beginner Guide to Stream API

a thread...

Streams are a way to perform operations on the whole collection of data.

Stream never modifies the source data, it processes it and gives us the result without modifying the original data.

Let's see few popular ways to create stream:

1. Collection. stream()
2. Stream.of(T... values)
3. Arrays. stream()
4. Stream.builder()

Eg:️

Consider stream as a pipeline, where we perform mainly two different operations on the source data:

1. Intermediate Operations(IO)
2. Terminal Operations(TO)

Here's what the stream pipeline looks like:

Source -> Intermediate Operations -> Terminal Operations

Intermediate Operations(IO):

It returns another stream object, after this, we can either call another IO or TO.

Few methods in Stream API for Intermediate operations:
1. filter()
2. map()
3. sorted()

and many more...

OOPs Concept in Java

a thread...

OOP Concepts are very common in Software Engineering.

All the OOP languages like Java, Python, C++, .Net, etc. have this concept.

In this thread, we'll try to understand it from Java's standpoint.

There are six different concepts in OOP:

1. Object
2. Class
3. Inheritance
4. Encapsulation
5. Abstraction
6. Polymorphism

Let's understand them one by one...

Object:

Look around you, whatever you see can be considered an Object.

For eg: The chair you are sitting on, the table, your computer, your house, windows, your pet, you yourself!

An object has Behaviour (things it does or performs) and Attributes (things that describe it).

Example:

Note: B = Behavior, A = Attribute

Chair:
B - Moves, Adjust Height, Recline, etc.
A - Built Material, Color, Make & Model, Brand, Price, etc.

You:
B - Eat, Play, Watch Netflix, Sleep, etc.
A - Height, Weight, Age, DOB, Name, SSN, etc.

Java: Acess Modifiers

a thread...

(Cheatsheet Included)

What is an access modifier?

Access Modifiers are a way of providing limited visibility to methods, variables, classes.

Different access modifiers provide different visibility due to which our program because less prone to unwanted changes.

Java has four access modifiers, let's see each one by one

public:
It's the least restrictive access modifier when any class, method, or variable is defined as public then it is accessible from anywhere.

protected:
Protected methods & variables can be accessed within the same package and also accessible to all child classes.

default:
When no access modifier is specified then java treats it as default. With default methods & variables are accessible within the same package.

private:
It's the most restrictive access modifier, when given to any methods & variable it is only accessible within the same class.

The Haas / Force India argument is fascinating, and the decision of the stewards may still have consequences. The first key finding is that the stewards ruled Racing Point Force India to be a valid constructor. That means that it builds its own cars.

Haas had argued that the cars had been designed by Force India, but as Haas knows only too well, "outsourcing" is legal. The stewards decided that "there is no regulatory support for the argument that Outsourcing of Listed Parts cannot come from a former or excluded team."

In determining this, the stewards also came to the following conclusion: "In relation to the submission by the Racing Point Force India F1 Team that it is not a new team, the Stewards decide that the Racing Point Force India F1 Team is indeed a new team."

This will have a big knock on effect for Haas in its continued arguments over the rights of RPFI as relates to its eligibility and rights under the complex payments structure. Haas has argued all along that RPFI should be treated as a new team and tread the same path that it did.

TLDR? Haas lost the fight but may have won the war. In having its argument that Racing Point hadn't designed their own car thrown out, they gained clarification that RPFI was a new team.

1. The major problem most startups face is marketing and the ability to carve out a niche, find and retain paying customers.

Even with a stellar developer team and a stellar product, your startup may not grow or survive without a great marketing and sales teams.

2. Start growing your audience before you’ve a product or an idea.

You should start promoting yourself and building your audience before you have a finished product or even before you have a great idea that you want to build.

3. Don’t wait to start building your audience after you’ve launched a product.

Most first-time developers actually ignore marketing.

They’re oblivious to the challenge of attracting people to take a look at something they’ve created.

4. At least until they see their first project crash and burn within hours of the launch.

There are so many times that I have seen developers spend countless hours building something, releasing it with no fanfare...

5. and only then trying to figure out how to promote it by asking marketing questions on Indie Hackers, Quora or Hacker News. Don’t make that mistake.

Before I begin, it might be worth explaining the Malay conception of the spirit world. At its deepest level, Malay religious belief is animist. All living beings and even certain objects are said to have a soul. Natural phenomena are either controlled by or personified as spirits

Although these beings had to be respected, not all of them were powerful enough to be considered gods. Offerings would be made to the spirits that had greater influence on human life. Spells and incantations would invoke their

Animist ceremonies of a religious or magical nature were normally held for the purpose of divination or making a request. This would either be done at a keramat or at a shrine similar to the Thai spirit houses or Chinese roadside shrines pic.twitter.com/I1hliyi0x3

Two known examples of such elemental spirits that had god-like status are Raja Angin (king of the wind) and Mambang Tali Arus (spirit of river currents). There were undoubtedly many more which have been lost to time

Contact with ancient India brought the influence of Hinduism and Buddhism to SEA. What we now call Hinduism similarly developed in India out of native animism and the more formal Vedic tradition. This can be seen in the multitude of sacred animals and location-specific Hindu gods

Observing the public conversation around FB, and the private ones happening among techies and ex-FBers, I think the mutual misunderstanding is worse than when I set out two years (and 500 pages) ago to (in a small way) bridge that gulf.

We're basically fucked.

The tech world has gotten so huge, self-reinforcing, and insulated from reality they can no longer even vaguely look at themselves (and their actions) as others do. They just live on a different planet than most people.

Conversely, the average tech consumer doesn't understand the technology that has slowly taken over their lives, and their designated emissaries to figure it out--politicians, pundits, regulators, journalists--understand it barely better than they do, and have their own agendas.

To say more than generalities for a moment, here's what I think is likely the core problem.

Techies take weird, improbable visions, and make them realities: some BS pitch deck to a VC, mixed with money and people, really does turn into some novel thing.

Most people work inside a legacy industry that's evolved that way over time (usually for good reasons), and they think about the future via some analogy with their present (which is a function of a long-ago past). The interruption that tech will introduce is often hard to grasp.
