Two key points to remember about constructors are that they have no return type and their names must exactly match the class name

Why constructor rather than classes in java?

Constructor is not an alternative to class. In Java, you create classes; the classes contain methods - including the constructor, which can be viewed as a special method. If you want to have a constructor, you need a class that surrounds it, so it's not one or the other.

What is a constructor and its mandatory to use constructor in a class?

A constructor is a method that is invoked when an object is created. As to being mandatory, that really depends on the programming language; in the case of Java, each class must have a constructor, however, in many cases Java will automatically provide a default constructor, so you don't really need to program it.


Why Java always provides a default constructor to class when you use another constructor default constructor remove?

Classes in Java inherit constructors from their parent classes. If you don't explicitly define a parent class, then Object is used, which has only the default empty constructor. That "default" constructor is only there when defined by the parent class, so classes which do not have a no-argument constructor will not allow subclasses to automatically use it. This is implemented this way because of the special nature of constructors. Java could not always provide a default constructor because it could not guarantee that all class members would be properly created or initialized.


Why constructor in Java doesn't have any return type?

The constructor of a Java class is not an ordinary method. Its purpose is not to return any value. The purpose of the constructor is to instantiate the class which it does. Since, the purpose of a constructor is only to instantiate and initialize its class and not anything else, it does not have a return type. All it does is creates an object of that class.


Is there a sample program for constructor?
