Question 1

Why does Java use the Unicode character set?

Answer

Unicode can represent nearly all languages of the world like

English, Hindi, Bengali, Kannada, Arabic, Japanese, etc. Java
uses unicode so that applications developed using Java can
support a wide range of languages rather than just being limited to
English.

Question 2

What are escape sequences in Java? Give three examples.

Answer

An escape sequence is a set of characters that has a special

meaning to the Java compiler. In the escape sequence, a
character is preceded by a backslash (\). Some examples of
escape sequences are \n, \' and \t.

Question 3

What is the result of evaluating the following expression?

(3 + 6 * 7) / 3 + 2

Answer

(3 + 6 * 7) / 3 + 2
⇒ (3 + 42) / 3 + 2
⇒ 45 / 3 + 2
⇒ 45 / 3 + 2
⇒ 15 + 2
⇒ 17

Question 4

What is a token in Java? Name the tokens available in Java.

Answer

All characters in a Java program are grouped into symbols called

Tokens. As you know, a computer program consists of a set of
instructions called statements. A statement is composed of various
components. Each individual component of a programming
statement is referred to as a token. Keywords, Identifiers,
Operators, Separators and Literals are five tokens in Java.

Question 5

Why can a keyword not be used as a variable name?

Answer

Keywords are reserved words that have a special meaning to the

Java compiler. As Java compiler reserves these words for its own

https://www.knowledgeboat.com/learn/class-10-logix-icse-computer-applications-java-bluej/solutions/D9PWz/java-datatypes 6/14

use so they are not available as names for variables or methods.

Question 6

Which of the following are Java keywords?

area, input, class, public, int, x, y, radius, long, Hello java

Answer

class, public, int, long are Java keywords.

Question 7

What are identifiers in Java? List three identifier formation rules.

Answer

Identifiers are used to name different parts of a program such as

variables, methods, classes, objects, etc. Three identifier formation
rules are:

1. An an identifier can be a sequence of alphabets, digits,

underscore and dollar sign characters only.
2. Identifiers cannot start with a digit.
3. An identifier must not be a Keyword or a Boolean or null literal.

Question 8

Explain the following statement — "In Java, total, Total, ToTaL, and
TOTAL are all different identifiers."

Answer

Java is a case sensitive language. total, Total, ToTaL, and TOTAL

have the same set of letters but they differ in the case of these
letters. Therefore, Java considers each of them as a different
identifier.

Question 9

Which of the following are invalid identifiers?

i. ten
ii. "Hello"
iii. 5678
iv. Coffee
v. $dollar
vi. 4Variables
vii. _var

Answer

"Hello" is invalid as identifiers cannot contain double quotes.

5678 is invalid as identifiers cannot start with a digit.
4Variables is invalid as identifiers cannot start with a digit.

Question 10

How would you print characters like \, ' and " in Java?

Answer

We can print characters like \, ' and " using escape sequences i.e.
preceding it with a backslash (\) symbol.

Question 12

Distinguish between "A" and 'A'.

Answer

"A" is a string literal of length 1 containing the letter A in uppercase

whereas 'A' is a character literal having value of A in uppercase.

Question 13

What is wrong with the following statement?

float flt = 7895.0345;

Answer

This statement is trying to assign a double literal to a float variable

so it will result in a syntax error of incompatible types (possible
lossy conversion from double to float). To fix it we need to a f or F
at the end of the double literal to make it a float literal as shown
below:
float flt = 7895.0345f;

Question 14

Describe primitive data types in Java.

Answer

Primitive data types are fundamental data types that are an

integral part of the Java language and are used to declare a
variable.

Question 15

List the size of primitive data types in Java.

Answer

Data Type Size in Bytes

byte 1

short 2

int 4

long 8

float 4

double 8

char 2

boolean 1

Question 16

Which integer and floating point data types take up the same
number of bits in computer memory?

Answer

Both, int and float take up 32 bits in memory. Similarly, both long
and double take up 64 bits in memory.

Question 17

What is variable initialisation in Java? What are the default values

of the following type of variables? short, int, long, float, double, and
char.

Answer

Variable initialisation means assigning value to a variable for the

first time. Below are the default values of the different data types:

Data Type Default Value

short 0

int 0

long 0L

float 0.0f

double 0.0d

char '\u0000'

Question 18

Provide the declaration for two variables called xCoordinate and

yCoordinate. Both variables are of type int and both are to be
initialised to zero in the declaration.

Answer

5/20/24, 1:30 PM Chapter 3: Values and Data Types | Solutions for Class 10 ICSE Logix Kips Computer Applications with BlueJ Java | Knowled…

int xCoordinate = 0;
int yCoordinate = 0;

OR

int xCoordinate = 0, yCoordinate = 0;

Question 19

Write a Java assignment statement that will set the value of the
variable interestAmount to the value of the variable
balanceAmount multiplied by the value of the variable rate. The
variables are of type double.

Answer

double interestAmount = balanceAmount * rate;

Question 20

Explain the statement, "a well-documented code is as important as

the correctly working code".

Answer

Writing fully commented code is a good programming style. The

primary purpose of comments is to document the code so that
even a layman can understand the purpose of the written code.
Hence, a well-documented code is as important as the correctly
working code.

Question 21

How can you write single line comments in Java?

Answer

Single line comments in Java can be written using //. For example:

// This is an example of single line comment.

Question 22

Write a Java constant declaration that gives the name TAX_RATE

to the value 15%.

Answer

final int TAX_RATE = 15;

Question 23

If you want to change the precedence of operations in an

expression, which symbols do you use?

Answer

https://www.knowledgeboat.com/learn/class-10-logix-icse-computer-applications-java-bluej/solutions/D9PWz/java-datatypes 11/14
5/20/24, 1:30 PM Chapter 3: Values and Data Types | Solutions for Class 10 ICSE Logix Kips Computer Applications with BlueJ Java | Knowled…

Brackets — () can be used to change operator precedence.

Question 24

What are symbolic constants? How are they useful in writing

programs?

Answer

Memory locations whose values cannot be changed within a

program are called constants or symbolic constants. The
advantages of symbolic constants are:

1. It improves the readability of the program and makes it easier

for someone to understand the code.
2. Any unintentional changes to such variables are flagged by
the compiler.
3. Later, if there is a change in the value of such variables (e.g.
interest rate changed), you just need to modify its value at one
place and all the other occurrences will be taken care of
automatically.

Question 25

What is the output produced by the following lines of program

code?

char x, y;
x = 'y';
System.out.println(x);
y = 'z';
System.out.println(y);
x = y;
System.out.println(x);

Answer

Below is the output produced by this code:

y
z
z

Variable x is assigned a value of character y so the first println

prints y. Variable y is assigned a value of character z so the
second println prints z. After that variable x is assigned the value of
variable y which is the character z so last println prints z.
