What is the difference between the use of JTextField and JPasswordField in a form? (AllIndia 2013)
Answer:

JTextField The JTextField is used to display a text box. In this text box, the user can input or edit the data.

JPasswordField does not directly display its content. Infact it uses a single character (usually an ASTERISK) to represent each character that
it contains so that it is possible to see how many characters have been typed, but not what they are. As its name suggests, JPasswordField
is intended to be used as a simple way to accept a users password, JPasswordField is derived from JjextField.

What do you mean by IDE?
Answer:
Integrated Development Environment (IDE)
An Integrated Development Environment (also known as integrated design environment, integrated debugging environment or interactive
development environment) is a software application that provides comprehensive facilities to computer programmers for software
development. An IDE normally consists of:

 a source code editor

 a compiler and)or an interpreter
 build automation tools
 a debugger.

Sometimes a version control system and various tools are integrated to simplify the construction of a GUI. Many modern IDEs also have a
class browser, an object browser and a class hierarchy diagram, for use with object-oriented software development.

Question 54.
What do you mean by Inspector Window?
Answer:
Inspector Window The Inspector window displays on the screen the hierarchy of all components contained in the currently opened form.

move along with it.
Child Controls Controls placed inside a container control are called child controls,
E.g.,
TextField. Label, Button, etc.

Question 57.
What do you mean by a literal? What are the different types of literals used in java language?
Answer:
Literals The literais or the constants are those items, whose values cannot be changed during the execution of the program. There are
number of literais used in a Java program. These are integer literais, floating literais, boolean literais, character literais, string literais and null
literais.

1. Integer Literais The integer literais are the whole numbers without any fractional part. We can enter the integers as decimal numbers
(base 10), octal numbers (base 8) and hexadecimal numbers (base 16). The decimal number is entered as a number which begins with
a nonzero digit (e.g. 35), for an octal number we have to enter the number that begins with a zero (e.g. 026) and a hexadecimal number
must start with Ox or OX. (e.g. Ox2B).
2. Floating literais The floating literais or the real numbers are those numbers which have fractional part. The numbers can be written
either in fractional form or in exponential form. e.g. 35.45. To write &3 x iO, we have to write 5.3E03 or 5.3e03.
3. Boolean Literais The boolean type literais can have a boolean type value i.e. either true or false.
4. Character Literais The character literai is one character enclosed in a single quotes. e.g. ‘a’.
5. String Literais When multiple characters are entered such as a name of a person or a place. The string literais are enclosed by double
quotes. e.g. “xyz”.
6. Null Literais The null type literal has only null value. It is formed by a literal null.

Question 58.
Briefly explain the numeric integral primitive data types used in Java?
Answer:
Primitive or hitrinsic Data Types The primitive data types are the basic data types of the Java language.
The primitive data type can be divided into following four categories:

1. Numeric Integral Primitive Types

2. byte The byte type occupies 1 byte of memory space. It can hold a signed integer in range of —128 to + 127.

 short The short type occupies 2 bytes of memory space. It can hold a signed integer in range of —32768 to + 32767.
 mt The integer type occupies 4 bytes of memory space. It can hold a signed integer in range of— 2147483648 to + 2147483647.
 long The long type occupies 8 bytes of memory space. It can hold a signed integer in range of 9223372036854775808 to +
9223372036854775807.
3. Fractional Primitive Types
 float The float type occupies 4 bytes of memory space. It can hold a single precision floating number in range of
1.401298464324817E—45 to 3.402823476638528860E+38 (1.4E—45 to 3.4E+38).
 double The double type occupies 8 bytes of memory space. It can hold a double precision floating number in range of ± 4.9 E—
324 to ± 1.798E+308.
4. Character Primitive Type char The char type is used to hold a single character. In Java unicode, encoding system is used for encoding
the characters. It can hold a character variable range from O to 65535.
5. Boolean Primitive Type boolean The boolean type is used t represent a boolean value, i.e. true or false. The size of this datatype is not
precisely defined.

Question 59.
What do you understand by a variable in Java? How is it differentiated from a literal or constant?
Answer:
A variable refers to an item whose value varies or changes during the execution of a Java program.

Question 60.
What do you understand by parse() method? What are the different forms of parse() method which are used in Java language?
Answer:
parse( ) Method Converts String to Numbers from a GUI component. The parse() method is used to convert a string into different numeric
types. In Java, there are different types of parse methods are used. Some of them are as follows:

 Byte.parseByte(String s) Used to convert a String s into a byte type value.

 Short.parseShort(String s) Used to convert a String s into a short type value.
 Integer.present(Striflg s) Used to convert a String s into an mt type value.
 Long.parseLong(String s) Used to convert a String s into a long type value.
 Float.parseFloat(String s) Used to convert a String s into a float type value.
 Double.parseDouble(String s) Used to convert a String s into a double type value.

Question 61.
How can you produce a basic dialog box in Java?
Answer:
In Java language to produce a basic dialogbox, we can use the JOptionPane.showMessageDialog() method. This method displays a
dialogbox containing the desired information with OK button.
To use the JOptionPane.showMessageDialog() method in a java application, we need to follow these steps:

(i) In the source editor, we need to type the following statement at the top most position

import javax.swing.JOption Pane;

(ii) Then do display the desired message we need to specify the desired text as per following syntax:

JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(Null, "This is a message”);

Question 62.
What is the use of logical operator? What are different logical operators used in Java language?
Answer:
Logical Operators, The logical operators are used to make a decision on two conditions. Logical operators are mainly used to control
program flow. There are three logical operators used in Java.
These are as follows:

1. AND Operator (&&) This operator combines two given conditions and evaluates the result to true, if both of the given conditions are true.
2. OR Operator (II) This operator combines two given conditions and evaluates the result to true, if either of the given conditions or both of
the conditions are true.
3. NOT Operator (!) The NOT operator is a unary operator. It negates the given condition.

Question 63.
Briefly explain the different GUI output methods used in Java.
Answer:
For displaying output in a Java program, we can use either of two methods, i.e. System.out.print() or System.out.println()
System.out.print() This method displays the text and keeps the cursor in the same line.
System.out.println() This method displays the text and then moves the cursor to the next line.

Question 64.
What are the different constructs of Java program?
Answer:
Constructs of Java Program
In a Java program, the specified statements can be executed either sequentially, selectively or repeatedly.

 Sequence Normally, the statements of a Java program are executed sequentially, i.e. in the same order as they are specified in a
program.
 Selection When we need to execute the program selectively, we have to use a conditional statement.
 Iteration When there is a need for executing certain statements repeatedly, we have to use a loop structure or iteration statement.

Question 65.
What is the use of following swing controls in Java
(i) JFrame
(ii) JLabel
(iii) jextField
(iv) JButton
Answer:
Basic Graphical Controls of Swing
Some of the commonly used controls of swing are as follows:

1. JFrame The JFrame is used to display a separate window with its own title bar.
2. JLabel The JLabel is used to display uneditable text. It means the user cannot change the information.
3. JTextField The JTextField is used to display a text box. In this text box, the user can input or edit the data.

 JPasswordField does not directly display its content. Infact it uses a single character (usually an ASTERISK)
to represent each character that it contains, so that it is possible to see how many characters have been typed, but
not what they are, As its name suggests, JPasswordField is intended to be used as a simple way to accept a users
password. JPasswordField is derived from JjextField.
4. JButton The JButton displays a push button. The push button is used to generate the associated action event.
5. JCheckBox The JCheckBox is used to display a checkbox. The checkbox is used to allow the user to select multiple choices out of
given choices. When the user selects a particular choice, a is shown in front of it.
6. JList The JList displays a list for the application. We can select multiple elements from this list.
7. JComboBox The JComboBox provides a drop-down list of items. We can select an item from this list. Also, we can add a new item in
the list. Infact, the combo box is a combination of a list and a text field.
8. JPanel The JPanel is used to organise the components in a GUI application. It is a supporting container, which cannot be displayed but
can be added to another container.
9. JRadioButton The JRadioButton provides the radio buttons for the application. During the execution of a program, we can set these
radio buttons either ON or OFF.

Note:
The area on the frame, where GUI components are placed is called content Pane

Question 67.
What are Jump statements? Briefly describe jump statements used in Java,
Answer:
The jump statements are used to transfer the control of the program unconditionally with in a function. In Java there are mainly two jump
statements are used. These are break statement and continue statement:

1. break statement The break statement can be used with for loop, while loop, do-while loop or switch. The break statement terminates the
loop and moves the control to the next statement after the loop structure. The remaining statements of the loop will not be executed.
2. continue statement The continue is a jump statement. It will cause to skip the remaining statements in the loop and moves the control to
the beginning of the loop for next iteration.

Question 68.
What is the difference between unary, binary and ternary operators?
Answer:
Operators can also be divided into three parts, on the basis of number of operands:

 Unary Operator An unary operator requires only one operand. Example of unary operators are unary ÷, unary —, + + and –. This
operator performs task only on a single operand.
 Binary Operator A binary operator requires two operands. Examples of binary operators are +, -, *, / and%.
 Ternary Operator A ternary operator requires three operands. Example of ternary operator is ?: (the conditional operator).

Question 69.
A phone number, consisting of 10-digits, s stored in a string variable strPhone. Now, it is required to store this phone number in long type
variable Long Phone. Write a Java statement to do this.
Answer:
The Java statement to store the content of strPhone (which is in String form) in long phone variable in long type format will be as follows:

long long phone =long.parseLong(strPhone)

Question 70.
What is RAD?
Answer:
RAD stands for Rapid Application Development. It describes the methods of developing software through the use of pre-programmed visual
tools and wizards.

Question 71.
What do you mean by a keyword? Can we use keywords as identifiers?
Answer:
Keywords are the words, which are defined in the compiler itself. These keywords convey a special meaning to the language compiler.
These cannot be used as identifier name.

Question 72.
What is an identifier? Mention the rules for forming the identifier.
Answer:
Identifiers are used for naming the different parts of the program like variables, objects, classes, functions, arrays, etc.
The rules of identifier are as follows:

1. Starts with an alphabet or an underscore( _).

2. Can have alphabets, numbers, underscore and dollar($) sign.
3. Can be of any length and cannot start with a digit.

Question 73.
What do you mean by primitive and reference data types?
Answer:
The data types used in Java can be divided into two categories:

1. Primitive or Intrinsic Data Types

There are eight primitive data types in Java language. These are byte, short, int, long, float, double, char and boolean.
2. Non-Primitive or Reference Data Types
These data types are constructed from primitive data types. These are classes, arrays and interfaces.

Question 74.
Write down the two forms of increment and decrement operators?
Answer:
In Java for increment and decrement, two operators are used. These are + +, which increases its operand by 1 and — which decreases its
operand by 1. Both of these operators can be used in two forms namely prefix form and postfix form.
(i) Prefix Form In this form first change then use rule is followed.
E.g.,

int a, b=5;
a = ++b;
System.out.println(a);
System.out.print!n(b);
It shows the output as 6 and 6. (i.e. the value of variable a and b respectively).
(ii) Postfix Form In this form first use then change rule is followed.
E.g.,

int a, b=5;
a—b++;
System.out.println(a);
System.out.println(b);
It show the output as 5 and 6. (i.e. the value of variable a and b respectively).

Question 75.
Briefly describe about implicit and explicit type conversion?
Answer:
Implicit Type Conversion The implicit type conversion is performed by the compiler in an expression where different data types are used, so
that the information is not lost.
E.g.,

int a=4;
float b=6.5, c;
c=a+b;
System.out.println(c);
In this expression, a will be automatically converted to float type.
Explicit Type Conversion The explicit type conversion is a user defined conversion to a specific data type.
E.g.,

int x=4, y=8;

float z; z=(float)(x/y);
System.out.printl n(z);
Question 76.
Differentiate between entry controlled loop and exit controlled loop.
Answer:
There are two types of loops used in Java language, these are entry controlled loop and exit controlled loop.

1. Entry Controlled Loop In an entry controlled loop, the test condition is evaluated before entering into the loop.
E.g., the while loop is an entry controlled loop.
2. Exit Controlled Loop In an exit controlled loop, the test condition is evaluated after the execution of the loop statements one time.
E.g., the do-while loop is an exit controlled loop.

Question 77.
Why are the iteration or looping statements are used? Name the iteration statements used in Java.
Answer:
The iteration or looping statements are used in Java to execute a part of program containing some instructions repeatedly until certain given
condition is satisfied.
In Java language, there are four types of loops are used, these are:

 for loop
 while loop
 do-while loop
 nested loop

Question 78.
Define term case sensitive? Is Java case sensitive?
Answer:
The term case sensitive refers to the different treatment of lowercase letters and uppercase letters. Java is a case sensitive language.

E.g.,

System.out.println() cannot be used as system.out.println()

or
SYSTEM.OUT.PRINTLN();
Question 79.
What is a unary operator? Briefly explain.
Answer:
Unary Operator An unary operator requires only one operand. Example of unary operators are unary + unary -, + + and –. This operator
performs task only on a single operand.

Question 80.
What is the use of modulus (%) operator?
Answer:
The modulus operator is used to find out the remainder of a division operation,
E.g.,

int a=10, b=4, c;

c=a%b;
System.out.println(c):
Here, the output will be 2, i.e. the remainder of the division of 10 with 4.

Question 81.
What will be the result of following two expressions if initially x = 15?
(i) x++<=15
(ii) ++x<=15
Answer:
(i) True
(ii) False
