There are three differences between an interface and an abstract class: you can implement multiple interfaces at the same time, but only extend one class, an abstract class is allowed to contain implementation (non-abstract methods, constructors, instance initializers and instance variables) and non-public members, and abstract classes may be a tiny bit faster (or they … Read more
Java always makes a copy of the argument and passes the copy. The called method has a local copy of the data. If the method changes the data it changes the copy, so the original value is not changed. When we pass a primitive like int this make perfect sense. The method gets its own … Read more
