Hey John! I do not leave comments often, so this is a special event. I am currently learning Java at university and at home, and I wanted to tell you how much your videos are helping me. Your simple way of teaching is amazing for new learners, and I find your channel criminally underrated. Keep on uploading, Im sure youll get big on KZread, a 100%!

Was going to say the same, usually programming videos are either boring or not engaging and taught well. This is completely opposite, very clear and understandable. Thank you

Recommend if you're serious about mastering Java that you read e.g. Joshua Bloch rather than watching needlessly long youtube presentations. No criticism of this video intended.

Plus one interesting thing - due to String's immutability and presense of a string pool - the hashCode() method is calculated only the first time and saved as a value inside String object. Therefore when you call hashCode() method second time (e.g. on another variable with the same literal value) - it will just return stored value, no need to calculate hash code again.

Really cool!

Thanks a lot for the crisp and clear video, John. Just to summarize String Immutability Benefits - 1) Usage of String pool, saving tons of memory and hashCode calculation 2) safe for multithreading 3) Removes any security threat by not allowing hackers to change referenced string values to cause security issues in the application

You basically summarized the summary.

Thanks for summary. Question regarding #1: Do I understand this correctly: the String pool saves the memory ONLY if you have two or more identical string variables (they point to the same piece of memory), but it wastes memory EVERY time you are changing the strings (it uses new piece of memory for the whole new string even if you change only one letter)?

I always had a question about this topic. I read in a book about java, that strings were immutable, but it never went so much into detail. This is a very good video. Thanks for sharing.

Dude I’m in bootcamp now for 6 months and no coding background. I just watched your video and I can say you have a best teaching technique that super understandable. You just got a subscriber. Thanks.

first time in this channel and it's absolutely great to dedicate a specific video to talk only about immutable objects in less than 10 minutes, perfectly clear!

I think you're kinda missing the main reason why Strings are immutable: You can't really have sensible mutable Strings since you can't change their length without moving everything to newly allocated memory on the heap which is incredibly expensive. I absolutely see your points as benefits, in fact I think Rust has proven that the whole mutable by default approach is a mistake, but it might have been a good idea to go into the actual reason a bit.

I can think of multiple ways that you can change your String length during runtime without coping (at least most of the time). Lists, Allocating more than cou need and and only get new memory when you run out.

Thank you! I will for sure be checking out more of your videos. You explained everything very clearly!

You have a talent for explaining things in a concise and easy to process manner. Thank you, sir!

Man I just discovered your channel and I find your content amazing. This is the kind of depth I was looking for regarding string immutability.

Outstanding and easy to understand explanation! Thank you for this video!

Man, you are so amazing. I've read many guides about immutable string but none of them is as clear as your explanation

Such a simple topic explained so well, wish they explained it like this in my early CS courses

You are easy to understand and always to the point. Glad I found you. Keep up the good work. Cheers.

Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I have liked, subscribed and am commenting. Cheers!

Ive been using Java as a student for nearly 5 years now, and your content has been completely mind-blowing to me. Made me adopt the "I know nothing" attitude and relearn everything.

I love how you’re drawing out with examples as you explain

Thanks so much. I've just come up with an interview question about this subject this morning. Luckily I watched your video the night before :)

Great explanation! Easy to follow, clear and concise. You earned a new subscriber!

There was an error i was dealing with ages ago that i couldn't figure out and this video made that error make perfect sense, thank you!

Simple and clear explanation John. I appreciate your work and effort. Amazing stuff!

This was fantastic, thank you so much! I've been struggling a lot in my comp sci classes because the professor refuses to go over theory, so this is wonderful :) You've won a very very faithful subscriber haha.

To the point , Every bit of information provided in just 7 minutes. SUBSCRIBED !!!

Excellent lesson John! I'm learning a lot with you :)

Knew all this but still his way of explaining held me till the end.... His way of teaching is just amazing

I think I'll never look back again at why string is immutable, you made it super clear 👌🙏 awesome!!!!

Hi, John. Love your tutorials, but I think there is a little thing you didn’t explain in details here. When you new a string “John”, the object is indeed created in the heap, but “John” is still crated inside string pool. There is a reference inside the object pointing towards “John”. So, you actually created two objects when you use ‘new’ keyword to create a string.

Crystal clear with examples. Hats off to you.

Thank you so much for explaining this!! I never truly got a grasp on what was meant by Strings being immutable but you explained it perfectly!!

you are the best java teacher that i saw on the youtube because you are cleary explain what is the behind theory thank you very much 🤩💖

Wow, it's great video! Informative, comprehensive and not boring. Thank you very much!

Wow, wow, wow, FINALLY the explanation of immutable strings that l was looking for sooo long time! THANK YOU!

John, I love your videos. Thank you. Studying for the OCA at the moment and you explain these concepts so well that I do not need to study them after watching the video. I understand it, which means I remember it forever because I understand how it works. I really appreciate your help!

I'm self teaching Java currently, I have a lot of questions about the "whys" and "hows" but currently the JavaDocs are a bit too advanced for me. This really helped!

Now Everything has sence. I know many teachers that needs THIS VIDEOS. You Rocks John.

Your videos are amazing!!You really do make the concepts clear!!Thanks for such an amazing content.

Good, quick description 👍

Thank you John.. That was the best explanation for understanding what immutable means

Kudos to you for explaining in such a short time. Cheers man

I am currently learning Java your videos give deeper understanding of Java thank you very much!

Excellent video, and clearly explained.

Thanks man!! Totally understood this concept :)

Loving your tutorial. Crystal clear explanation

John! You explained it very well. Completely understandable and with a really nice example.

i wasn't aware of the benefits of immutability, even though i knew exactly what immutability means. thanks for the tid bits!

I thought I had a firm grasp of what it means when they say Strings are immutable. After watching this video, Everything i thought i knew went straight outta the window. Thanks John. Way to make things understandable.

Damn such a nice work John, instant Sub!

Thanks for the effort you put in these videos. Thanks for sharing. I am learning a lot.

The best explanation for this topic that I've seen so far. Thank you!!

Learnt a whole lot about string immutability in 7minutes than I have in a year. Lol. Nice one

This video was really helpful. Thank you very much.

Protect this man at all costs. Best explanations on Java concepts on the internet

you are the best programmer combining teacher as i ever met!support!

the coolest thing about the immutable part(to me) is the multiple thread point. i have come to appreciate that after so many times i have replicated that fact for my objects while trying to avoid the synchronized keyword.

Wow I didn't aware of this.thanks a lot John

It's very interesting to know what's happening behind the scenes. Very nice explanation :)

Beautifully explained. Very informative . Thank you !!

just completing the trifecta: yay, somebody does cool java videos about interesting topics in 2021 - subscribed!
