    How is a simulator different from an emulator? 

    • Emulators are only used to play old SNES games, simulators are used for software development

    • The emulator is shipped with the Android SDK and third party simulators are not

    • The emulator can virtualize sensors and other hardware features, while the simulator cannot

    • The emulator imitates the machine executing the binary code, rather than simulating the behavior of the code at a higher level.

    Correct Answer
    A. The emulator imitates the machine executing the binary code, rather than simulating the behavior of the code at a higher level.
    Explanation
    A simulator and an emulator differ in their approach to replicating the behavior of software. While emulators are commonly used for playing old SNES games, simulators are primarily used for software development. The given answer explains that the key distinction lies in the fact that an emulator imitates the machine executing the binary code, whereas a simulator simulates the behavior of the code at a higher level. This means that an emulator aims to replicate the exact hardware and software environment, while a simulator focuses on replicating the behavior and functionality of the code without necessarily replicating the underlying hardware.

    An implicit intent is the sender specifies the type of receiver?

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    An implicit intent is a type of intent in Android where the sender does not specify the exact receiver component. Instead, the sender specifies the action to be performed and the system matches the intent with the appropriate component that can handle that action. Therefore, the statement "an implicit intent is the sender specifies the type of receiver" is true.

    When the activity is not in focus, but still visible on the screen it is in?

    • Running state

    • Paused state

    • Stopped state

    • Destroyed state

    Correct Answer
    A. Paused state
    Explanation
    When an activity is not in focus but still visible on the screen, it is in the paused state. In this state, the activity is partially visible to the user, but it is not actively interacting with the user. This can happen when another activity or dialog appears on top of the current activity, causing it to lose focus. The paused state allows the activity to retain its current state and resume from where it left off when it regains focus.

    Although most people's first thought when they think of Android is Google, Android is not actually owned by Google. Who owns the Android platform? 

    • Oracle Technology

    • Dalvik

    • Open Handset Alliance

    • The above statement is incorrect and Android is owned by Google

    Correct Answer
    A. Open Handset Alliance
    Explanation
    The Open Handset Alliance owns the Android platform. While many people associate Android with Google, it is important to note that Google is a member of the Open Handset Alliance, along with other companies such as Samsung, HTC, and Motorola. The Open Handset Alliance was formed to develop open standards for mobile devices and promote the Android platform. Therefore, it is incorrect to state that Android is owned solely by Google.
