Java has a number of means by which a file can be sequentially written to, or read back again. This article explores some of these mechanisms to understand their performance characteristics.

You go in, there's a whiteboard in the room, and you write code on it to answer questions.Everyone also has the same basic complaints about these interviews. In a normal work environment, you have access to an API or search engine, but at a whiteboard you don't. Whiteboard questions generally don't include much in the way of overall design, and they're typically limited to simple algo...
