Difference between AWT and Swing

 Difference between AWT and Swing

Both java AWT and Java Swing are Java API which is used to develop GUI or window-based applications in java.

The difference between Java AWT and Java Swing are given below:

Note:- Swing is the extension of AWT and not the replacement.

AWT

Swing

1.  AWT components are platform dependent.  

2.  The look and feel of AWT component vary from one operating system (OS) to another. 

3.  AWT components do not support the facility of pluggable look and feel. 

4.   AWT components are heavy weight. 

 5.  AWT components are based on peer         architecture. 

6.    AWT frame doesn’t  support any default close operation (hiding of frame) on the close button or its title bar.

1.       Swing components are platform independent.


2.       The look and feel of swing components remain same across the platform.


3.       Swing components support pluggable look and feel.


4.       Swing components are light weight.


5.       Swing components are based on MVC architecture.


6.       Swing frame support a default close operation (hiding of frame) on the close button or its title bar.

Write a program using the algorithm count() to count how many elements in a container have a specified value.

 Here's an example program using the count() algorithm to count the number of occurrences of a specific value in a vector container: #include <iostream> #include <vector> #include <algorithm> using namespace std; int main() {     vector<int> numbers = { 2, 5, 3, 7, 8, 5, 1, 5, 4 };          // count the number of occurrences of the value 5 in the vector     int count = count(numbers.begin(), numbers.end(), 5);          cout << "The number of occurrences of 5 in the vector is: " << count << endl;          return 0; } Output: The number of occurrences of 5 in the vector is: 3 Explanation: The program starts by creating a vector named numbers that contains several integer values. The count() algorithm is used to count the number of occurrences of the value 5 in the numbers vector. The function takes three arguments: the beginning and end iterators of...

Define polymorphism. Differentiate between overloading and overriding method with example.

 Polymorphism is a concept in object-oriented programming that allows objects of different classes to be treated as if they were objects of the same class. It allows a single method or operation to have different meanings or behaviors based on the context in which it is used. In Java, there are two types of polymorphism: Compile-time Polymorphism: This is achieved through method overloading, where two or more methods in a class have the same name but different parameters. Runtime Polymorphism: This is achieved through method overriding, where a subclass provides its own implementation of a method that is already defined in its parent class. Here is an example of method overloading: class MyClass {    public int sum(int a, int b) {       return a + b;    }    public double sum(double a, double b) {       return a + b;    } } public class Main {    public static void main(String[] args) {     ...
