INTERNSHIP CONCEPTS
5.1 Java Fundamentals [1]
(a) Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) in Java

. The four fundamental principles of OOP were extensively applied in this project: [2]

1. Class:
o A class is a user-defined data type. It consists of data members and member
functions, which can be accessed and used by creating an instance of that
class.. A class is like a blueprint for an object.
o For Example: Consider the Class of Cars. There may be many cars with
different names and brands but all of them will share some common properties
like all of them will have 4 wheels, Speed Limit, Mileage range, etc.
2. Object:
o It is a basic unit of Object-Oriented Programming and represents the real-life
entities. An Object is an instance of a Class. When a class is defined, no
memory is allocated but when it is instantiated (i.e. an object is created)
memory is allocated. An object has an identity, state, and behavior.
o For instance, a User object captured details like username, email, and
preferences, enabling personalized user interactions.
3. Inheritance:
o Inheritance is an important pillar of OOP(Object-Oriented Programming). The
capability of a class to derive properties and characteristics from another class
is called Inheritance.
o For example, a Base Entity class with common attributes like id and createdAt
was extended by all entity classes (e.g., User, Product), ensuring consistency.
4. Polymorphism:
o Polymorphism allowed multiple behaviors for the same method, enhancing the
flexibility and scalability of the codebase.
o For instance, a calculateDiscount() method was implemented differently for
various user types, such as regular users and premium members.

18 | P a g e
 5. Encapsulation:
o Encapsulation is defined as the wrapping up of data under a single unit. It is the
mechanism that binds together code and the data it manipulates.
o Consider a real-life example of encapsulation, in a company, there are different
sections like the accounts section, finance section, sales section, etc.

(b) Abstraction in Java

1. Data Abstraction:
o Data abstraction refers to providing only essential information about the data
to the outside world, hiding the background details or implementation.
o Ex. Payment Service interface abstracted the payment processing logic,.
2. Implementation Abstraction:
o By hiding implementation details inside methods and classes, the project
focused on simplifying functionality for developers and users.
o For example, a Database Connection Manager class abstracted the logic for
establishing and closing database connections.

(c) Exception Handling

. Using try-catch blocks, the application gracefully managed unexpected scenarios, such as:

 Handling invalid user inputs during form submissions.[18]

 Managing database connection errors or invalid SQL queries.
 Providing meaningful error messages to users without exposing internal logic.

(d) Collection Framework

The Java Collection Framework was employed extensively to manage and manipulate groups
of objects efficiently. Key components included:[20]

1. List (Array List):

o Used for maintaining ordered collections, such as lists of products or users.
o Example: A list of items in a shopping cart was implemented using ArrayList.
19 | P a g e
 2. Set (HashSet):
o Ensured uniqueness of data, such as maintaining unique user IDs or order
numbers.
o Example: Preventing duplicate user registrations by checking IDs in a
HashSet.
3. Queue (Priority Queue):
o Managed tasks in a prioritized order, such as processing customer support
tickets based on urgency.

(e) JUnit Testing

JUnit was used to create automated unit tests for the application’s modules. Key features of
JUnit testing included:

 Mocking dependencies to isolate and test specific components, ensuring reliability

and robustness of the code.[16]
 Example: Testing the calculateTotalPrice() method for different product combinations.

(f) Multithreading

. Key implementations included:

 Handling multiple user requests simultaneously, ensuring the application scaled

efficiently.[17]
 Running background operations, such as data synchronization or report generation,
without blocking the main application workflow.

(g) JDBC (Java Database Connectivity)

JDBC was crucial for connecting the Java application to the MySQL database. Its use in the
project included:

 Executing SQL queries to interact with the database.[7]

 Performing CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
 Managing prepared statements to prevent SQL injection and enhance security.

20 | P a g e
5.2 Database-Related Concepts: RDBMS/SQL

Relied on Relational Database Management Systems (RDBMS) and SQL to store,

organize, and retrieve data efficiently. Key implementations included: [3]

1. Database Design:
o Tables were created with normalized schemas to minimize data redundancy
and improve data integrity.
o For example, a normalized dB structure with User, Order, and Product tables
2. SQL Operations:
o CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete) were performed for
managing data.
o Example: SQL queries retrieved and updated stock levels after a purchase.
3. Optimization Techniques:
o Indexing was implemented to improve the speed of data retrieval for
frequently accessed columns.
o Primary and foreign key constraints ensured data consistency and enforced
relationships between tables.

5.3 Integration in the Project

1. Front-End Integration:
o OOP principles like encapsulation and inheritance structured the data models
for smooth interaction with the user interface.[9]
2. Back-End Logic:
o Exception & Multithreading handling improved application reliability by
managing errors gracefully.[10]
3. Database Layer:
o JDBC & Optimized SQL queries ensured efficient data storage and
retrieval.[7]
