Java Garbage Collection Questions et reponses d'entretien
Question 1. What is Garbage Collection in Java?
Garbage Collection is the automatic process of reclaiming the runtime unused memory by destroying the objects that are no longer reachable or referenced by the program.

The finalize() method is called by the garbage collector before reclaiming the memory occupied by an object. It can be overridden to perform cleanup operations before an object is garbage collected.
Question 3. What is the role of the JVM (Java Virtual Machine) in garbage collection?
The JVM is responsible for managing the memory, including garbage collection. It runs the garbage collector to identify and reclaim unused memory.
