From a technical point of view, the exception concept stands for unwanted or unexpected event, which occurs during the execution of a program i.e at run […]
When we talk about Java collections, we consider two things. First, more wide concept, means implementations of common data structures. An another, narrow understanding, corresponds to concrete interfaces and their implementations, that are contained in Java Collections Framework, supplied out-of-the box. In that sense, we need to remember that such collections inherit to the root […]
