Interview Questions

PCT (Program Control Table) - Defines each transaction containing a list of valid transaction identifiers (transid) where each transaction is paired with its matching program.

PPT (Program Processing Table) - Contains a list of valid program names and maps and whether a current version is in the CICS region or needs to be brought in as a new copy.

FCT (File Control Table) - Contains a list of files known to CICS, the dataset name and status (closed/open, enable/disabled)

TCT (Terminal Control Table)- A list of the terminals known to CICS.

When we create string with new() Operator, it’s created in heap and not added into string pool while String created using literal are created in String pool itself which exists in PermGen area of heap.

String s = new String("Test");

does not put the object in String pool , we need to call String.intern() method which is used to put them into String pool explicitly. its only when you create String object as String literal e.g. String s = "Test" Java automatically put that into String pool.

A child selector is used when you want to match an element that is the child of another specific element.
The parent and child selectors are separated by spaces.

Primary key : a relational database constraint. Primary key consists of one or more columns that uniquely identify a row in the table. For a normalized relation, there is one designated primary key.

Unique index: a physical object that stores only unique values. There can be one or more unique indexes on a table.

Any code written in any .NET complaint languages when compiled, converts into MSIL (Microsoft Intermediate Language) code in form of an assembly through CLS, CTS. IL is the language that CLR can understand. On execution, this IL is converted into binary code by CLR’s just in time compiler (JIT) and these assemblies or DLL are loaded into the memory.

DB2 use the multiple indexes to satisfy multiple predicates in a SELECT statement that are joined by an AND or OR.

The difference lies with the execution of the languages. PHP is server side scripting language, which means that it can’t interact directly with the user. Whereas, JavaScript is client side scripting language, that is used to interact directly with the user.

They are DEFINE CLUSTER, DATA and INDEX.
