28. What should be done to invoke the run() method on a thread for an object derived from
the Thread class. Select the one correct answer.
A. The run() method should be directly invoked on the Object.
B. The start() method should be directly invoked on the Object.
C. The init() method should be directly invoked on the Object.
D. The creation of the object using the new operator would create a new thread and
invoke its run() method.

29. What is the default priority of a newly created thread.

A. MIN_PRIORITY (which is defined as 1 in the Thread class.)
B. NORM_PRIORITY (which is defined as 5 in the Thread class.)
C. MAX_PRIORITY (which is defined as 10 in the Thread class.)
D. A thread inherits the priority of its parent thread.
Answers to Sample Test 2

1. c, d, f
2. c. The main method must be static and return void. Hence a and b are incorrect. It must
take an array of String as argument. Hence e and f are incorrect. As Java is case sensitive,
d is incorrect.
3. a, d
4. List
5. e. The collection interface Map has two implementation HashMap and Hashtable.
6. a. Local variables are not initialized by default. They must be initialized before they are
used.
7. d. The variable i gets initialized to zero. The while loop does not get executed.
8. c. During various iterations of three loops, the only time i, j and k have same values are
when all of them are set to 2.
9. 0x17 or 0X17.
10. e. The statement "i=2" evaluates to 2. The expression within the if block must evaluate to
a boolean.
11. e. The range of short primitive type is -32768 to 32767.
12. c,d. Java does not allow casts between boolean values and any numeric types. Hence a is
incorrect. Assigning double to a float requires an explicit cast. Hence b and e are
incorrect.
13. a
14. e
15. b. Both Strings test and test2 contain "abcd" . They are however located at different
memory addresses. Hence test == test2 returns false, and test.equals(test2) returns true.
16. d. The for loop does not get executed even once as the condition (i < 0) fails in the first
iteration. In the switch statement, the statement j = j +1; gets executed, setting j to 1. As
there is no break after this case, the next statement also gets executed setting j to 3.
17. 5050. The recursive function xyz essentially sums up numbers 1 to num. This evaluates
to (num * (num + 1))/2.
18. a. Java supports assignment of one array to another. Hence b is incorrect. Array elements
are indexed from 0. Hence c is incorrect. A method that accesses array elements out of its
range does not generate a compilation error. Hence d is incorrect.
19. d. array.length gives the number of elements in the array. As indexes in Java start from 0,
d is the correct answer.
20. c. In the invocation of call_array, the first element is invoked using call-by-value, and the
second using call-by-reference.
21. d. import statement, package statement and class definitions are all optional in a file.
Hence a and c are incorrect. If both import and package statements are present in a file,
then package statement must appear before the import statement. Hence b is incorrect.
22. e. The args array consists of two elements "it" and "out". args.length is set to two.
23. a,c,d. The exception ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException is generated as the main method
tries to access i[2]. Hence 1 gets printed. After this finally block gets excuted, before the
program exits.
24. d,e,f
25. e. A data member that does not have public/protected/private is accessible to all methods
in the same package.
26. a. The Manager and Employee share as "is a" relationship - A Manager is an Employee.
This is captured by making Employee the base class of Manager.
27. b. The method int parseInt(Sting s) returns the integer value corresponding to input
String, assuming that the input string represents an integer in base 10.
28. b. The start() method invokes the run() method when the thread is ready to execute.
29. d

B)Compile time error, because you have to do int total = ((Integer)
(list.get(0))).intValue();
C)Compile time error, because can't add primitive type in List.
D)Compile Properly but Runtime Exception.

Correct answer is : A

Explanations :Manual conversion between primitive types (such as an int) and

wrapper classes

(such as Integer) is necessary when adding a primitive data type to a

collection in jdk1.4 but

The new autoboxing/unboxing feature eliminates this manual conversion in jdk

1.5 and jdk 1.6.

B z = (B) restore.readObject();

options
A)A B A
B)A B A B
C)B B
D)A B

Correct answer is : A

Explanations :On the time of deserialization , the Serializable object not

create new object. So constructor of class B does not called.

A is not Serializable object so constructor is called.

}

options
A)Compilation Fail
B)java.io.NotSerializableException: Because class A is not Serializable.
C)Run properly
D)Compilation Fail : Because class A is not Serializable.

Correct answer is : B

Explanations :It throws java.io.NotSerializableException:A Because class A

is not Serializable.

When JVM tries to serialize object B it will try to serialize A also because
(A a = new A()) is instance variable of Class B.

So thows NotSerializableException.

options
A)7:30
B)Compile Error - an enum cannot be instantiated using the new operator.
C)12:50
D)19:45

Correct answer is : B

Explanations : As an enum cannot be instantiated using the new operator, the

public class EnumTypeDeclarations {

public void foo() {

enum SimpleMeal {
BREAKFAST, LUNCH, DINNER
}
}
}

Is the above code Compile without error ?

options
A)Compile without error
B)Compile with error
C)Compile without error but Runtime Exception
D)Compile without error but Enum Exception

Correct answer is : B

Explanations :
An enum declaration is a special kind of class declaration:

a) It can be declared at the top-level and as static enum declaration.

b) It is implicitly static, i.e. no outer object is associated with an enum

constant.
c) It is implicitly final unless it contains constant-specific class bodies,
but it can implement interfaces.

d) It cannot be declared abstract unless each abstract method is overridden

in the constant-specific class body of every enum constant.

e) Local (inner) enum declaration is NOT OK!

Here in
public void foo() {

enum SimpleMeal {
BREAKFAST, LUNCH, DINNER
}
}

enum declaration is local within method so compile time error.

}

options
A)7:30
B)Compile Error
C)12:15
D)19:45

Correct answer is : B

Explanations : The enum constants must be declared before any other

declarations in an enum type.

In this case compile error because of declaration int t; before enum

declaration.

b.run();
}
public void start(){
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++){

options
A)A compile time error indicating that no run method is defined for the
Thread class
B)A run time error indicating that no run method is defined for the Thread
class
C)Clean compile and at run time the values 0 to 9 are printed out
D)Clean compile but no output at runtime

Correct answer is : D

Explanations : This is a bit of a sneaky one as I have swapped around the

names of the methods you need to define and call when running a thread.
If the for loop were defined in a method called public void run() and the
call in the main method had been to b.start() The list of values from 0 to 9
would have been output.

 System.out.print(q.poll() + " ");
}

options
A)Compile error : Integer can't add
B)newyork ca texas 11
C)newyork ca texas
D)newyork ca

Correct answer is : B

Explanations :
 q was originally declared as Queue<String>, But in show() method it is
passed as an untyped Queue. nothing in the compiler or JVM prevents us from
adding an Integer after that.
 If the show method signature is public static void show(Queue<String> q)
than you can't add Integer, Only String allowed. But public static void
show(Queue q) is untyped Queue so you can add Integer.
 poll() Retrieves and removes the head of this queue, or returns null if
this queue is empty.

options
A)true true
B)false false
C)false true
D)true false

Correct answer is : C

Explanations :Creating a new instance of the class File, you're not yet
making an actual file, you're just creating a filename.

FileWriter fw = new FileWriter(file) do three things:

It created a FileWriter reference variable fw.

It created a FileWriter object, and assigned it to fw.

It created an actual empty file out on the disk.

So file.exists() return true.
