Chapter 8.4, Problem 25STQ
Program Plan Intro
Interface:
Interface is a reference type in Java, which contains a collection of abstract methods. It is very similar to class, but it cannot be instantiated, rather it is implemented by other classes.
An interface needs to the follow certain conditions such as:
- • One cannot instantiate an interface.
- • Interfaces do not contain any constructors.
- • All methods present in the interface are abstracts.
- • An interface does not contain any instance field.
- • An interface cannot be extended by a class.

Can we have static methods in an Interface?
Can you implement the Derived Class Parameterized constructor? A solution is placed in the "solution" section to help you, but we would suggest you try to solve it on your own first.
Implement the constructor Dell(String name) of the Derived Class Dell which takes a string, name. We have already implemented the Base Class Laptop with the member function getName() and a parameterized constructor.
Input#
Laptop name is being passed through the parameterized constructor.
Output#
getName() method is returing Laptop name.
Sample Input#
Dell dell = new Dell("Dell Inspiron");
Sample Output# "Dell Inspiron"
1. How can we write a parameter less Lambda expression?
a. Need to pass curly braces to denotes that there are no parameter on left side of the arrow.b. Pass empty set of parentheses on the left side of the arrow.c. In this particular case arrow is not required at all.d. No need to pass anything on the left side of the arrow.
2. Which of the following is NOT true about functional interface in Java?
a. It has multiple methods that needs to be implemented.b. Lambda expression implicitly implement the single method inside functional interface.c. If a lambda expression is provided then the method name should not be provided.d. It has only a single method that needs to be implemented.
