Objects are constructed. You can't make a new object without invoking a constructor. In fact, you can't make a new object without invoking not just the constructor of the object's actual class type, but also the constructor of each of its superclasses including the Object class itself! Constructors are the code that runs whenever you use the keyword new.

so it may be used for initialization your variables or open ports to work .. etc.
EX: if I'm working with the printer... I want to print an object
in the constructor I'll use a port
I've to close it till I finish printing ... then I use the destructor to re-open it .

How is the default constructor equivalent to a constructor having default arguments?
Any constructor that can be invoked without explicitly passing any arguments is a default constructor. Note that there can be only one default constructor so there can only be one constructor where all arguments have default values or one constructor that has no arguments, but not both. A constructor where all arguments have default values is a useful means of combining two or more constructors into a single default constructor, thus reducing verbosity and code duplication.
1 Explain the concepts of constructor and destructor Do you have to declare a constructor every time you create a class?
You only need a constructor if the default constructor will not suffice. Often times, it is useful to have a constructor that takes common parameters so that you do not have to write additional code. For example, a Point class might have a constructor for Point(int x, int y), which would be a shortcut for assigning x and y independently. Other classes may not need any default values assigned, and for this, it is acceptable to just use the default constructor. Finally, some classes are virtual, static, or abstract, and so may not need a constructor because the constructor is unnecessary (static), or may be defined elsewhere (virtual, abstract).
Default constructor in java?
If you don't type a constructor into your class code, a default constructor will be automatically generated by the compiler. The default constructor is ALWAYS a no-arg constructor. (Obviously the compiler has no clue what all arguments you might want for your class. So it takes the safe way out with a no argument constructor) A no-arg constructor is not necessarily the default (i.e., compiler-supplied) constructor, although the default constructor is always a no-arg constructor. The default constructor is the one the compiler provides! While the default constructor is always a no-arg constructor, you're free to put in your own no-arg constructor.
What is an empty constructor?
An empty constructor takes no arguments and calls the default constructor
What is the difference between implicit and explicit call of constructor in c plus plus?
An implicit constructor call will always call the default constructor, whereas explicit constructor calls allow to chose the best constructor and passing of arguments into the constructor.

When a object is passed to a function as argument why it is not generating an error if the parameterized constructor is defined and not the default constructor?
default constructor is used only when the programmer does not use a constructor to initialize objects. Once the programmer defines a constructor then the default constructor is no longer used
Can you call constructor?
yes we can call constructor
What is use of constructor in java?
Constructor is used to do something (written in constructor) immediately after object creation.
What is a default parameterized constructor?
There is no such thing as a default parameterized constructor. The default constructor is always the 'no-arg' constructor and does not take any parameters or arguments as input
How do you get a default constructor?
The default constructor is an empty (only call the super constructor) with no parameters constructor inserted by the java compiler when you don't define a constructor in your class. If you write something like this: public class NoConstructorClass{ //no constructor goes here } Then you get something like this: public class NoConstructorClass{ public NoConstructorClass(){ // Default constructor that you didn't write super(); } }
What happens when no constructor function is declared in a class - in Java?
When any constructor is deffined in your class, the java compiler create a default no argument constructor for you. This constructor only have an invocation to the super class constructor (" super( ) ").
How many kinds of constructor in java?
Java has 2 types of constructors based on parameters passed:Default or parameter-less constructor: A constructor which does not accept any arguments.Parametrized constructor: A constructor which accepts one or more arguments.Similarly based on Access modifier also we have:Public constructor - Class can be instantiated by anyonePrivate constructor - Class cannot be instantiated by anyoneProtected constructor - Class can be instantiated only by sub classes
