REST API Automation Testing from Scratch - REST Assured Java - String Practice Exercises

The video tutorial explains how to reverse a string and check if it is a palindrome, a common interview question. It covers the logic of using loops to reverse a string and compares the reversed string to the original to determine if it is a palindrome. The tutorial also highlights the importance of understanding string manipulation in programming interviews.

What is the primary problem discussed in the introduction of the video?

• Sorting an array

• Reversing a string and checking for palindromes

• Finding the maximum element in a list

• Calculating the sum of numbers

Which method is introduced to access characters at specific indices in a string?

• getChar

• charAt

• substring

• indexOf

What is the purpose of creating a dummy string in the string reversal process?

• To store the original string

• To store the reversed string

• To store the length of the string

• To store the index of characters

How is the reversed string constructed in the video?

• By appending characters from the start

• By appending characters from the end

• By using a built-in reverse function

• By sorting the characters

What is a palindrome as described in the video?

• A string that reads the same backward as forward

• A string that contains only vowels

• A string that is sorted alphabetically

• A string that contains only consonants

Why is understanding string reversal important according to the conclusion?

• It is a common task in web development

• It is frequently asked in interviews

• It is used in database management

• It is essential for graphic design

What is the main takeaway from the video regarding string manipulation?

• String manipulation is rarely used

• Reversing a string is complex and requires many lines of code

• Reversing a string can be done efficiently with simple logic

• String manipulation is only useful for palindrome checks
