CH-6 More About Classes & Libraries PDF

This document summarizes commonly used libraries and methods in Java. It includes examples of libraries like Math, String, and IO libraries. It discusses string methods for comparison, input/output, and mathematical operations. Key classes that handle character data are Character, String, and StringBuffer. StringBuffer is considered more flexible than String because it allows modifying string size and content.

COMMONLY USED LIBRARIES

From New Edition


Type A: Very Short/Short Answer Questions
1 What is java library? Give some examples.
Ans. A set of ready-made software routines (class definitions) that can be reused in new programs, is called
a Library.
Example – /math library, String library, utilities library, IO (Input-Output) library etc.
2 How many different classes are available in java to work with character data?
Ans. There are three different classes are available in java to work with character data.
1. Character class
2. String class
3. StringBuffer class
3 What is an accessor method?
Ans. Methods used to obtain information about an object are known as accessor methods.
4 What does round () return if a negative float value is passed to it?
Ans. If the argument is a negative float value then the result will be MIN_VALUE of int type.
i.e., Integer.MIN_VALUE
5 What will happen if you passed an argument that is not a number (NaN in Java’s term) to pow() and
round() method of Math library?
Ans. Pow() – if we passed an argument that is not a number then the result is a NaN.
Round() –if we passed an argument that is not a number then the result is 0.
6 Predefined classes are available in the form of ______________________.
Ans. package
7 Name the package you need to import for performing input and output.
Ans. java.io
8 Which package is by default imported in every java program?
Ans. java.lang
9 What is difference between equals() and equalsIgnorecase() string functions?
Ans. equalsIgnoreCase – Ignoring the case, it checks if the string entered is equal to the value present in the
string object.
equals –Case sensitive and it checks if the string entered is equal to the value present in the string
object.
10 What is the difference between length() and capacity() string functions?
Ans. Length returns length of a given string whereas capacity returns maximum number of character that
can be entered in the string.
11 Why do we need so many string methods for comparison, e.g., equals, equalsIgnoreCase,
compareTo, CompareToIgnoreCase?
Ans. All the method have their own specific use which are as follow –
equals(): Compares this string to the specified object.
equalsIgnoreCase(): Compares this String to another String, ignoring case considerations.
compareTo(): Compares two strings lexicographically.
CompareToIgnoreCase(): Compares two strings lexicographically, ignoring case differences.
12 In one word, what is the difference between a String and Stringbuffer?
Ans. The string objects of java are immutable whereas stringbuffer objects are mutable.

1
13 Write the code to display a IP 12 CBSE in a dialog box (JOPtiopnPane).
Ans. JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "IP 12 CBSE");
14 Write the code to display a dialogbox (JOptionPane) which asks the user his/her name. Store the
returned value in a new string variable name and then display the first letter of the name.
Ans. String name;
name=JOptionPane.showInputDialog("enter your name");
char name2;
name2=name.charAt(0);
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, name2);
Type A: Short/Long Answer Questions
1. Why is a StringBuffer class considered more flexible than String class?
Ans. stringBuffer class considered more flexible than string class because String class creates the strings of
fixed length whereas stringBuffer class creates the strings of flexible length where we can modify the
contents of a string both content and size.
2. Name some methods which are members of StringBuffer class but not in String class.
Ans. 1. append(x) method
2. insert(offset, x) method
3. delete(beg, end) method
4. reverse() method
5. setLength(n) method
3. Which library contains contains methods for common mathematical operations i.e., abs, sin, exp,
round, etc. ? How do you include this library in your program? (write statement)
Ans. Math library contains methods for common mathematical operations.
import java.lang.Math
4. What will be the output of the following code?
Math.round(1.5): 2
Math.round(-1.5): -1
Ans 2
-1
5. What is the output of the following code fragment ?
String s="Informatics practices !";
String t=null;
System.out.println(s.substring(3,17));
s=t;
System.out.println(s.charAt(1));
Ans. ormatics pract
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException //trying to copy null to variable.
6. What is the output of the following code fragment?
"Welcome".toLowerCase();
"Welcome".toupperCase();
"Welcome".trim();
"Welcome".replace('e', 'A');
"Welcome".replaceFirst("e", "AB");
"Welcome".replace("e", "AB");
"Welcome".replace("el","AB");

2
Ans. WELCOME
Welcome
WAlcomA
WABlcome
WABlcomAB
WABcome
7. What will be the output produced by the following code?
class StringClass
{
public static void main(String[] args){
//create a string
String myString="Hello World";
System.out.println(myString);
//copies substring in myString2
String myString2=myString.substring(4,8);
System.out.println(myString2);
//concatenates myString and myString2
String myString3=myString+myString2;
System.out.println(myString3.substring(3,15));
//Compares strings
System.out.println(myString.compareTo(myString2));
//checks if the string are equal, '==' will not work
System.out.println(myString.equals("Hello world"));
System.out.println(myString.indexOf(myString2));
//+ can work as string concatenation or addition
System.out.println(myString.length()+" "+ (myString2.length() + myString3.length()) +
myString.length());
//UPper case strings
System.out.println(myString.toUpperCase());
}
}
Ans. Hello World
o Wo
lo Worldo Wo
-39
false
4
11 1911
HELLO WORLD
