- RMAN Recovery Manger which is also known as incremental files system backup.

ilk Test is a Functional testing tool product of Seague software. It uses the language called 4GL(fourth Generation Language).

It has 2 components,
Silk Test Agent - Run on remote machine
Silk Test Host - Creating, Modifying, Viewing the scripts

Uses of Silk Test tool:

1. It’s a tool developed for performing the regression and functionality testing of the application.
2. It benefits when we are testing Window based, Java, the web, and the traditional client/server applications.
3. Silk Test help in preparing the test plan and managing them to provide the direct accessing of the database and validation of the field.

- Web browser functions are to provide the resources or information to the user when asked by them. 

- It processes the user inputs in the form of URL like https://www.google.com in the browser and allows the access to that page. 

- URL is used to identify the resources and fetch them from the server and displays it to the client. 

- It allows the user to interact with the web pages and dynamic content like surveys, forms, etc. 

- It also allows the user to navigate through the complete web page and see its source code in the HTML format. 

- It provides security to the data and the resources that are available on the web that is by using the secure methods.

Android Application Architecture has the following components:
* Services – like Network Operation
* Intent - To perform inter-communication between activities or services
* Resource Externalization - such as strings and graphics
* Notification signaling users - light, sound, icon, notification, dialog etc.
* Content Providers - They share data between applications

If you mark an instance variable as transient, you're telling the JVM to skip (ignore) this variable when you attempt to serialize the object containing it.

To insert a NULL, move -1 to the null indicator

To insert a valid value, move 0 to the null indicator

ArrayList and LinkedList both implements List interface and maintains insertion order. Both are non synchronized classes.

But there are many differences between ArrayList and LinkedList classes that are given below.

ArrayList    V/s     LinkedList ::

1) ArrayList internally uses dynamic array to store the elements.

                   Whereas

LinkedList internally uses doubly linked list to store the elements.

2) Manipulation with ArrayList is slow because it internally uses array. If any element is removed from the array, all the bits are shifted in memory.

                   Whereas

Manipulation with LinkedList is faster than ArrayList because it uses doubly linked list so no bit shifting is required in memory.

3) ArrayList class can act as a list only because it implements List only.

                   Whereas

LinkedList class can act as a list and queue both because it implements List and Deque interfaces.

4) ArrayList is better for storing and accessing data.

                   Whereas

LinkedList is better for manipulating data.

- %FOUND

 This is a Boolean variable which evaluates to TRUE if the last row is successfully fetched.

- %NOTFOUND

 This is a Boolean variable which evaluates to TRUE if the last row is not successfully fetched. This means there are no more rows to fetch.

- %ROWCOUNT

 Returns the number of rows fetched by the cursor.

- %ISOPEN

If the cursor is open, it evaluates to TRUE else FALSE.
