Structure of the Book
Each chapter in this book is centered around a major concept or module of advanced Java. The topics are logically sequenced to help learners move from foundational to complex topics efficiently.
Every chapter includes:

• 50 Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs): To quickly test theoretical and applied understanding of key concepts.
• 25 Short Answer Questions: These are designed to reinforce definitions, syntax, differences, and direct knowledge.
• Chapter 7: JDBC – Java Database ConnectivityA very practical chapter that introduces database connectivity in Java using JDBC. Covers SQL operations, PreparedStatement, ResultSet handling, and connecting to popular RDBMS systems.
  Chapter 8: Java 8 Features – Lambda, Streams & Functional InterfacesTeaches modern Java programming using functional paradigms. Topics like lambda expressions, Stream API, and built-in functional interfaces are essential for cleaner, faster, and parallel programming.
  Chapter 9: Java Annotations and Reflection APIExplains how Java annotations are used in frameworks and the power of runtime inspection using reflection. Includes annotation creation, meta-annotations, and class inspection techniques.
  Chapter 10: Java Modules and Packages (Java 9+)A must-know for modern Java developers. Learn about modular development using JPMS, managing dependencies, and building scalable applications with encapsulated modules.
  Chapter 11: Servlets and JSP in Java EEExplores the server-side Java world. Covers Servlet and JSP lifecycles, session handling, request dispatching, and scriptlet handling. Great for those aiming to build dynamic web applications.
  Chapter 12: RESTful Web Services using JavaCovers the use of JAX-RS for creating RESTful web services, handling , managing API requests and responses, and implementing CRUD operations in enterprise APIs.
