SCJP Object Oriented Programming

QUESTION : 1

ANS : 1

The method that will be called is the one
from class Mammal. The reasons are quite obvious.

QUESTION : 2

ANS : 1

Object reference conversion is possible here.
The old type which is class can be assigned
to an interface type as long as the class implements
that interface.

QUESTION : 3

ANS : 4

You will get a NullPointerException because the
inner class object gets assigned to the reference a
only after the aMethod() runs. You can prevent
the exception by calling t.aMethod() before the
inner anonymous class method is called.

QUESTION : 4

ANS : 1

This code will fail to compile because the
compiler cannot resolve the method call here.

SCJP Language Fundamentals

QUESTION : 1

ANS : 4

This will compile and print "Hello"
The entry point for a standalone java program is
the main method of the class that is being run.
The java runtime system will look for that method
in class Test and find that it does have such a method.
It does not matter whether it is defined in the class itself
or is inherited from a parent class.

QUESTION : 2

ANS : 1

There is no such thing as a positive or negative zero.
Hence the result is always positive infinity.

QUESTION : 3

ANS : 2

The result of 1/4 will be zero because integer
divion is carried out on the operands.
If you need to obtain a fractional value
you need to use either a float or double literal
as in 1F / 4F.

QUESTION : 4

ANS : 1,3

1. is correct as it is a valid hexadecimal number. 2. is wrong
because you can only assign the values true and false to them
4 is wrong because 128 is beyond the range of a byte. 5 is wrong
because "A" is not a char it is a String.

QUESTION : 5

ANS : 2

You are passing a reference to an array as
the argument to the method. The method may not
modify the passed object reference but it can modify
the object itself.

QUESTION : 6

ANS : 3

This will run, print a message and terminate gracefully.
The runtime system needs to load the class before it can look
for the main method. So the static initializer will run first
and print "10". Immediately after that System.exit(0) will be called
terminating the program before an error can be thrown.

QUESTION : 7

ANS : 2

You cannot assign a reference to an array of primitives
to another unless they contain the same primitive types.

QUESTION : 8

ANS : 2

Correct answer/s : 2
The statement is false. The range of an array
is from - 128 to 127

QUESTION : 9

ANS : 1,2,4,5

1 is correct because \u0038 is unicode for nbr 8.
3 is wrong because 1.2 is a double literal.
4. is a little sneaky perhaps. The
unicode escape character is incorrect

QUESTION : 10

ANS : 4

Division by zero on integer literals will throw
a runtime error.

SCJP java.lang

QUESTION : 1

ANS : 4

QUESTION : 2

ANS : 5

1. Is wrong because it is legal to assign integer
literal to a char variable as long as the value
does not exceed the range of a char.
2. Is wrong because parseByte(String s , int radix)
will accept any native numeric type that is not
wider than an int.
3 and 6 are just nonsense.
4. Is wrong because the the character b falls within
the radix range specified by the second parameter.
