Section-B (Attempt any four questions)

Question 2.
Define a class with an integer array to store 6 integers and a main function to accept 6 numbers in the
array and swap the adjacent elements.
Question 3.
Given the specification of the following class Student.
Class name : Student
Data members
Roll integer
Name String
Term1marks float
Term2marks float
Perc float
Member functions
getStudent() – To input student roll, name and marks in 2 terms and calculate percentage (Formula :
Perc=(Term1+Term2)/2)
showStudent() – To display student name and percentage.
Define the class as per the specification.
Question 4.
Define a class to input a sentence and display the words that are palindromes. A palindrome is a word
that is same as its reverse.
Question 5.
Define a class to accept 10 strings and a search string. Search for the string and display whether found
or not. If not found , display proper message.
Question 6.
Define a class in java to input a sentence and a word and check whether the word is present in the
sentence or not.
Question 7.
Defne a class in Java to accept a String/Sentence and display the smallest and longest words present in
the String.
Sample Input: “Rahul Dravid is a consistent player”
Sample Output: The longest word: Consistent
The smallest word: is
 Answers

Section-A
Answer 1.
(i) (c) Wrapper class
Explanation :
Each primitive data type has a canvas of wrapper class . The wrapper classes have associated functions
to deal with the associated data types.
(ii) (a) Encapsulation
Explanation :
The OOPs feature Encapsulation encapsulates data and functions of a class as one unit and shields
them from the outside world.
(iii) (d) 44
Explanation :
x[1+2] means x[3] , here x[3] is 44
(iv) (b) Boolean
Explanation :
Boolean is the wrapper class for the Boolean primitive data type.
(v) (c) startsWith()
Explanation :
The startsWith() function checks whether a string begins with a particular string or not and returns a
boolean true or false.
(vi) (a) System.out.println(str.substring(2,4).toUpperCase());
Explanation :
The substring(2,4) extracts characters from index 2 to 3 and toUpperCase() converts them to uppercase
(vii) (c) Protected
Explanation :
The protected access specifier can be used to make accessibility to own class, classes of same package
and child classes.
(viii) (c) trn.substring(7).toUpperCase()
Explanation :
The trn.substring(7) returns the characters from index 7 to the end of the string i.e : ‘Express’ and the
toUpperCase() function converts it to uppercase to return ‘EXPRESS’.
(ix) (b) Laxman
Explanation :
s1=s2 assigns s2 to s1 , which is then printed.

Answer 2.
Example :
Input : Enter 6 numbers: 10 20 30 40 50 60
Output : After swap list are: 20 10 40 30 60 50
import java.util.Scanner;

for (i = 0; i < 6; i++)
{
arr[i] = sc.nextInt();
}
i = 0;
while (i < 6 - 1)
{
t = arr[i];
arr[i] = arr[i + 1];
