java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: Bad version number in .class file? (Eclipse)

Before hitting the solution let's get to know why this error occurs in java.So when JVM tries to load a class   and found that class version is not supported it throws UnSupportedClassVersionError  and it generally occurs if a higher JDK version is used to compile the source file and a lower JDK version is used to run the program.
For example: if you have written your program using Java 1.6 and compiled also and now you run that program in 1.5 you will get the error  "java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: Bad version number in .class file [at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass1(Native Method)]".

So now we come to how to resolve this issue in Eclipse. Right click on the project in Eclipse and click on Properties menu.After that click on Java Compiler menu. In right hand side uncheck use compliance check box and from the drop-down menu click the version you need .For me i have to select 1.6.After that click ok and clean your project.If again problem comes then once restart your eclipse.
Hope this solution will work for you.

Arrays.sort() and Collections.sort() NullPointerException

While sorting an array by using Arrays.sort()  or using Collections.sort() for sorting a list you can encounter a NPE (NullPointerException) . You might be thinking what went wrong ? So one of element in the array which have been  passed for sorting contains the null element. Similar with the list case also .So check for a null entry in your array or list before passing to these methods as parameter. Example 1 : String[] strarr={"abc", "def" , null}; Arrays.sort(strarr); Output 1: -------- Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException at java.lang.String.compareTo(String.java:1167) at java.lang.String.compareTo(String.java:92) at java.util.Arrays.mergeSort(Arrays.java:1144) at java.util.Arrays.sort(Arrays.java:1079) at Test.main(Test.java:7) Example 2: List strlist=new ArrayList (); strlist.add("abc"); strlist.add("def"); strlist.add(null); Collections.sort(strlist); Output 2: ----------

Sentimental Analysis : PART 1

Sentimental Analysis refers to identify, extract, quantify, and study affective states and subjective information. It helps to identify public emotion about certain topics/products. Humans are fairly intuitive when it comes to interpreting the tone of a piece of writing, but teaching a machine to identify emotion is tough. A negative sentence can be assumed by machine as positive.  For example, In case of sarcastic sentence "I have lost my watch again. That's brilliant", humans can easily tell that it's a negative emotion framed in sarcasm but machine can assume that it's a positive sentence without knowing the context. Applying the contextual information, machine can identify it to be negative emotion. Sentimental Analysis helps to gain insight from social data and to understand the consumer attitude and act accordingly.  VOC(Voice Of The Customer) applications are primarily used by companies to determine what a customer is saying about a product o
