What is the range of an int data type in Java?
- A.
–2^15 to 2^15 – 1
- B.
0 to 2^15
- C.
–2^31 to 2^31 – 1
- D.
0 to 2^31
Correct Answer
C. –2^31 to 2^31 – 1Explanation
The correct answer is -2^31 to 2^31 - 1. In Java, the int data type is a 32-bit signed two's complement integer. The range of values that can be stored in an int variable is from -2^31 to 2^31 - 1. The lower limit is -2^31 because one bit is used to represent the sign of the number. The upper limit is 2^31 - 1 because the remaining 31 bits are used to represent the magnitude of the number.Rate this question:

What is the meaning of variable++ ?
- A.
Add one to the variable.
- B.
Add one to the variable after its current value has been used.
- C.
Add one to the variable before using its value.
- D.
Double the value in the variable.
Correct Answer
B. Add one to the variable after its current value has been used.Explanation
The expression variable++ is a post-increment operator. It adds one to the variable after its current value has been used. This means that if the variable has a value of 5, for example, the expression variable++ would use the current value of 5 and then increment the variable to 6.Rate this question:

Consider the following line of Java code. int x = 1+7*2; What will be the value of x at the end of execution of the line of code?
- A.
9
- B.
15
- C.
16
- D.
21
Correct Answer
B. 15Explanation
The value of x at the end of the execution of the line of code will be 15. This is because the multiplication operation has higher precedence than addition, so 7*2 is evaluated first, resulting in 14. Then, 1 is added to 14, giving a final value of 15 for x.Rate this question:

The Java expression: !((b != 0) || (c <= 5)) is equivalent to:
- A.
(!(b = 0)) && (!(c>5))
- B.
(b==0) && (c >5)
- C.
(b!=0) && (c
- D.
!((b 0) && (c
Correct Answer
B. (b==0) && (c >5)Explanation
The given Java expression is using the logical NOT operator (!) to negate the result of the logical OR operator (||). This means that the expression will be true only if both conditions inside the parentheses are false.
In the first option, !(b = 0) is incorrect because it is using the assignment operator (=) instead of the comparison operator (==).
In the second option, (b==0) && (c >5) is correct because it checks if b is equal to 0 and c is greater than 5.
The third and fourth options are incomplete and do not provide a valid expression.Rate this question:

What does the following program output to the monitor: int value = 0, count = 1; value = count++ ; System.out.println("value: "+ value + “count: " + count );
- A.
Value: 0 count: 0
- B.
Value: 0 count: 1
- C.
Value: 1 count: 1
- D.
Value: 1 count: 2
Correct Answer
D. Value: 1 count: 2Explanation
The program first assigns the value of count to value and then increments the value of count by 1. Therefore, the output will be "value: 1 count: 2".Rate this question:

What is the output of the following: int a = 0, b = 10; a = --b ; System.out.println("a= " + a + " b= " + b );
- A.
A= 9 b=11
- B.
A= 10 b= 9
- C.
A= 9 b=9
- D.
A= 0 b=9
Correct Answer
C. A= 9 b=9Explanation
The output of the given code is "a= 9 b=9". This is because the expression "--b" decrements the value of b by 1 before assigning it to a. So, a becomes 9 and b also becomes 9.Rate this question:

Which of the answers does the same thing as the following: value += sum++ ;
- A.
Value = value + sum; sum = sum + 1;
- B.
Sum = sum + 1; value = value + sum;
- C.
Value = value + sum;
- D.
Value = value + ++sum;
Correct Answer
A. Value = value + sum; sum = sum + 1;Explanation
The given expression "value += sum++" is equivalent to "value = value + sum; sum = sum + 1;". The expression "value += sum++" adds the value of "sum" to the value of "value", and then increments the value of "sum" by 1. This is exactly what is happening in the alternative answer "value = value + sum; sum = sum + 1;".Rate this question:

Does every Java variable use a data type?
- A.
No---only numeric variables use data types.
- B.
No---data types are optional.
- C.
Yes---all variables are of the same data type.
- D.
Yes---each variable must be declared along with its data type.
Correct Answer
D. Yes---each variable must be declared along with its data type.Explanation
Every Java variable must be declared along with its data type. This is because Java is a strongly typed language, which means that variables must have a specific type assigned to them before they can be used. This allows the compiler to allocate the appropriate amount of memory for the variable and perform type checking to ensure that the variable is used correctly. Without declaring the data type of a variable, the compiler would not know how to handle it, resulting in a compilation error.Rate this question:

- A.
Count < 8
- B.
Count < 9
- C.

- D.
Count != 8
Correct Answer
B. Count < 9Explanation
The condition "count < 9" should be used so that the code produces the output "1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8". This condition ensures that the loop will continue executing as long as the value of count is less than 9. Once count reaches 9, the condition will evaluate to false and the loop will terminate.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
D. 1 2 4 5 7 8Explanation
The code fragment starts with initializing the variable j to 1. Then, it enters a while loop with the condition that j is less than 10. Inside the loop, it prints the value of j followed by a space. After that, it updates the value of j by adding the remainder of j divided by 3 to itself. This process continues until j becomes greater than or equal to 10.

Fill in the blank so that the following adds up the odd numbers from 1 to 99 int sum = 0; for ( int num = 1; num <=99; __________ ) sum += num; System.out.println( sum );
- A.
J++
- B.
Num+2
- C.
Num+=2
- D.
Num--
Correct Answer
C. Num+=2Explanation
The correct answer is "num+=2". This is because "num+=2" is equivalent to "num = num + 2", which means that the variable "num" will increase by 2 in each iteration of the loop. By starting at 1 and increasing by 2, the loop will only consider odd numbers. Therefore, the sum variable will add up all the odd numbers from 1 to 99.Rate this question:

The correct answer is "for ( int x = 0; x < 500; x+=5 )
System.out.println( x )". This for loop has the same initialization, condition, and increment as the while loop. It starts with x = 0, continues as long as x is less than 500, and increments x by 5 in each iteration. Additionally, it prints the value of x in each iteration, just like the while loop.

The correct answer is "double x;
for ( x = 0.0; x < 100.0; x += 0.1 )
System.out.println( x );"
This for loop duplicates the while loop because it initializes a variable x as a double with a value of 0.0. It then sets the condition for the loop to continue as long as x is less than 100.0. After each iteration, it increments x by 0.1. Finally, it prints the value of x. This is exactly what the while loop does.Rate this question:

What does the following statement do? String[] names = new String[10] ;
- A.
It declares names to be 10 String objects.
- B.
It declares names to be a reference to an array of String references and constructs an array object which can contain references to 10 String objects.
- C.
It declares names to be a reference to an array of String references and constructs an array object which contains references to the 10 String objects which it also constructs.
- D.
It declares names to be a reference to an array of String references and constructs an array object which contains "10" in its first slot.
Correct Answer
B. It declares names to be a reference to an array of String references and constructs an array object which can contain references to 10 String objects.Explanation
The given statement declares the variable "names" to be a reference to an array of String references. It also constructs an array object that can hold references to 10 String objects. This means that the "names" array can store up to 10 String values.Rate this question:

Given the declaration String[] names = new String[10] ; Which of the following statements puts a reference to the String "Hello" in the last slot of the array?
- A.
Names[0] = "Hello" ;
- B.
Names[10] = "Hello" ;
- C.
Names[9] = "Hello" ;
- D.
String[ names.length-1 ] = "Hello" ;
Correct Answer
C. Names[9] = "Hello" ;Explanation
The correct answer is names[9] = "Hello"; because arrays in Java are zero-indexed, meaning that the first element is at index 0 and the last element is at index length-1. Therefore, to put a reference to "Hello" in the last slot of the array, we need to access index 9.Rate this question:

What types of information are arrays best suited for?
- A.
Lists
- B.
Pairs of related information
- C.
Trivia
Correct Answer
A. ListsExplanation
Arrays are best suited for storing and organizing lists of related information. Arrays allow for the efficient storage and retrieval of multiple values of the same data type, making them ideal for situations where a collection of data needs to be accessed and manipulated as a whole. Arrays provide a convenient way to keep track of and work with lists of items, such as a list of numbers, names, or any other type of data that needs to be grouped together.Rate this question:

Which of the following statements are valid array declaration? (A) int number(); (B) float average[]; (C) double[] marks; (D) counter int[];
- A.
B & C
- B.
A
- C.
A & C
- D.
D
Correct Answer
A. B & CExplanation
The valid array declarations are (B) float average[] and (C) double[] marks. In (B), an array named "average" of type float is declared. In (C), an array named "marks" of type double is declared using the array syntax. (A) int number() is not a valid array declaration as it uses parentheses instead of square brackets. (D) counter int[] is also not a valid array declaration as the type "counter" should come before the variable name.Rate this question:

46. Consider the following code int number[] = new int[5]; After execution of this statement, which of the following are true? (A) number[0] is undefined (B) number[5] is undefined (C) number[4] is null (D) number[2] is 0 (E) number.length() is 5
- A.
B, D & E
- B.
A & E
- C.
C & E
- D.
E
Correct Answer
A. B, D & EExplanation
After executing the statement "int number[] = new int[5];", the following statements are true:
(B) number[5] is undefined: This is true because the array "number" has a size of 5, but the indexes of an array start from 0. Therefore, the index number[5] is out of bounds and undefined.
(D) number[2] is 0: This is true because when an array of integers is created, all the elements are initialized to their default value, which is 0 for integers. Therefore, number[2] will be 0.
(E) number.length() is 5: This is true because the length property of an array returns the number of elements in the array, which in this case is 5.Rate this question:

- A.
2 6
- B.
8
- C.
2 4
- D.
6 8
Correct Answer
C. 2 4Explanation
The code fragment creates an array called "ar" with four elements: 2, 4, 6, and 8. The code then prints the value of the first element (ar[0]) followed by a space and the value of the second element (ar[1]). Therefore, the output of the code is "2 4".Rate this question:
