10 Examples of SED Command in UNIX and Linux
SED command in UNIX stands for
stream editor and it can perform lots of functions on file like searching,
find and replace, insertion or deletion. Though the most common use of SED command
in UNIX is for a substitution or for find and replace. By using SED you can edit
files even without opening it, which is a much quicker way to find and replace
something in the file, than first opening that file in VI Editor and then changing it.
In this SED command tutorial, we will see some practical examples of SED commands
in UNIX based systems e.g. Linux. I must say having a good grip on the find, grep, sort, vi editors and SED can
take you next level of UNIX and Linux working experience.

Why Avoid Comparing Integers in Java using == Operator? Integer Cache Example
Java 5 introduced auto-boxing which automatically converts int to Integer and because of that many Java developers started writing code for comparing int variable to Integer object and Integer to Integer using == operator. You should avoid that because it can create subtle bugs in your program because it only works for a particular range of integers and not for all. There is another problem as well when you compare the int variable to the Integer object using == operator, the Integer object is converted to a primitive value. This can throw a null pointer exception if the Integer object is null, which can crash your program.

How to Create, Update and Remove Soft link in Linux and UNIX - Example
Symbolic links, Symlink or Soft link in Unix are a very important concept to understand and use in various UNIX operating systems e.g. Linux, Solaris, or IBM AIX. Symlinks give you so much power and flexibility that you can maintain things quite easily. I personally feel that along with find, grep and other UNIX commands, the command to create a soft link and update soft link i.e. ln -s is also a must for anyone working in the UNIX machine. Whenever I do scripting or write any UNIX script I always write for symlinks rather than pointing to the absolute path of directories in UNIX.
How to Reverse an Array in Java? Integer and String Array Example Tutorial
This Java tip is about, how to reverse an array in Java, mostly primitive
types e.g. int, long, double and String arrays. Despite
of Java’s rich Collection API, use of array is quite common, but standard JDK
doesn’t have great utility classes for Java. It’s difficult to convert between
Java Collection e.g. List,
Set
to primitive arrays. Java’s array utility class java.util.Arrays, though
offers some the critical functionalities like comparing
arrays in Java and support
to print arrays, It lacks a lot of common features, such as combining
two arrays and reverse primitive or object array.

Good knowledge of the final keyword is not only essential for writing good, performant, and secure Java programs but also to clear any Java interview. The interviewer pays special attention to the final keyword and expects candidates to know how and when to use the final modifier with variables, methods, and classes. In this article, I have collected Java interview questions that are based upon the concept of the final modifier. You might have seen many of these questions on both telephonic and face-to-face rounds.

How to format Decimal Number in Java? DecimalFormat Example
We often need to format decimal numbers in Java like formatting numbers up to 2 decimal places or 3 decimal places or we want to introduce leading zeros in front of numbers. Thankfully Java programming language provides many different ways to format numbers in Java like either using Math.round() or setScale() from BigDecimal but the caveat is that they also do rounding of numbers i.e. 1.6 will be rounded on 2.0 if we use Match.round(). If we are just interested in formatting decimal numbers up to n decimal digits then DecimalFormat is the way to go. java.text.DecimalFormat descends from NumberFormat and provides a dynamic way of formatting numbers in Java.

What is Repeating groups in FIX Protocol? Example
FIX Protocol repeating group
In this FIX protocol tutorial, I am going to share my experience about FIX repeating block or group. This is a fundamental concept of FIX protocol and used to carry repeating data. A correct understanding of various available FIX repeating groups e.g. PartyID block, Allocation repeating group etc is very important for writing FIX based software. In this FIX tutorial, I will explain about how to parse a repeating group, how to prepare a repeating group and how to understand a repeating group. If you like to know more about basic concepts in FIX protocol then you may find my FIX Protocol tutorial interesting.

Java.net.BindException: Address already in use: JVM_Bind:8080 [Solved]
java.net.BindException: Address already in use: JVM_Bind is a common exception in Java with applications trying to connect on a particular port and some other processes either Java or non Java is already connected on that port. You can get "Address already in use: JVM_Bind" error while doing remote debugging in Java in Eclipse, when Eclipse trying to connect to remote Java application when you are starting tomcat and another instance of tomcat is listening on port 8080 you will get java.net.BindException: Address already in use: JVM_Bind:8080.

Java Tips and Best practices to avoid NullPointerException in Java Applications
A NullPointerException in Java application is the best way to solve it and that
is also key to write robust programs that can work smoothly. As it said “prevention
is better than cure”, same is true with nasty NullPointerException. Thankfully
by applying some defensive coding techniques and the following contracts between
multiple parts of an application, you can avoid NullPointerException in Java to a
good extent. By the way, this is the second post on NullPointerException in
Javarevisited, In the last post, we have discussed the common
causes of NullPointerException in Java and in this tutorial, we will learn some Java coding techniques and
best practices, which can be used to avoid NullPointerException in Java.
