Building a JDBC Connection Pool with Java Concurrency Primitives

A lightweight, in-memory connection pool can be implemented with nothing more than java.sql.Connection stubs, a LinkedList, and the classic wait/notify mechanism. Below you’ll find a complete walk-through that covers stub generation, pool logic, timeout handdling, and a stress-test harness. Stubbing...

Understanding Java Enums and Floating-Point Precision

Analyzing Enum Usage in Java Let's examine EnumTest.java and interpret its output. public class EnumTest { public static void main(String[] args) { Size s = Size.SMALL; Size t = Size.LARGE; // Do s and t reference the same object? System.out.println(s == t); // false // Is it a primitive type? Syste...

Implementing a Rock-Paper-Scissors Game in Java

The foundation of a rock-paper-scissors game in Java lies in generating random numbers for the computer's choices. This can be achieved by first importing the java.util package and then using int r = new Random().nextInt(3); where the number 3 indicates three possible outcomes (0, 1, 2). In the game...
