TEST 1 MCOB000 – OOP February 27, 2023

INSTRUCTIONS
1. Read the guidelines on each question.
2. Start each question on a new page.
3. Multiple Choice Questions (MCQ): Write the answer in capital letters.
4. You may answer the questions in any preferred order. However, DO NOT MIX the
numbering order of a question.

QUESTION 1 MODIFIED TRUE/FALSE [11]


State if the statement is true or false, if false provide the correct answer or justification.
1. When a class has multiple destructors, the parameter lists must different.
2. You can pass an entire object to a function. When you do, the function can change the
contents at the original object’s memory address eliminating the need to make a separate
copy of the passed object within the function.
3. After the following statements execute, any change to cash modifies someMoney, and vice
versa.
double someMoney;
double *cash = &someMoney;
4. Using an object within another object is known as composition; a benefit of object-oriented
programming is that one can reuse well-crafted classes as member-objects.
5. The statement Customer pnp(); declares a Customer object named pnp using a constructor
that does not require any arguments.
6. To create just one memory location that can be altered no matter how many objects you
instantiate, you declare the field to be non-static and constant.

4. Which of the following could coexist with a function prototyped as


void function(double, int = 0); with no ambiguity possible?
a) double function (double); c) void function(double = 0.0, int = 0);
b) double function(double, int); d) none of the above

5. The primary reason you want to use #define, #ifndef, and #endif is to ___________ .
