Difference b/w string and string buffer in tabular form In java

Difference b/w string and string buffer in tabular form


      String
StringBuffer/StringBuilder
1
String Object is immutable.
StringBuffer/StringBuilder Object is mute
2
Immutable means the value stored in the String object can’t be changed.
Mutable means the value stored in the String object can be changed.
3
Inefficient
Efficient.
4
‘overloaded mathematical operators’ (‘+’) is used for adding strings which generates string new instances everytime.
Example:
String st = “Hello”;
st = st + “Java”;
‘append’ is used for adding two or more strings which expands  StringBuffer.
Example:
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(“Hello”);
sb.append(“Java”);
5
String is not synchronized. Which means it is not thread safe.
StringBuilder/StringBuffer is synchronized. Which is thread safe and hence you can use it when you implement threads for methods.
6
Poor performance.
Better Performance.
7
Small amount of manipulation can be done.
large in ammount or heavy amount of manipulation can be done.

MVC Example 1

                        Swing MVC Example in java Java Swing first programs In this chapter, we will program our first programs in Swing toolkit. The examples are going  to be very simple. We will cover some basic functionality. Our first example In our first example, we will show a basic window. import javax.swing.JFrame; public class Simple extends JFrame { public Simple() { setSize(300, 200); setTitle("Simple"); setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE); } public static void main(String[] args) { Simple simple = new Simple(); simple.setVisible(true); } } While this code is very small, the application window can do quite a lot. It can be resized, maximized, minimized. All the complexity that comes with it has been hidden from the application programmer. import javax.swing.JFrame; Here we import the JFrame widget. It is a toplevel container, which is used for plac...
