Since this is a valid way to create a multi-line comment in Java, the correct answer is True.

    Rate this question:

  • 2. 

    Suppose you are given a variable named temperature that holds a value. This is how you would write an if-else statement that will display Above Freezing if temperature is greater than 32, Freezing if temperature is equal to 32, else it will display At or Below Freezing. if (temperature > 32) System.out.println("Above Freezing"); else (temperature == 32) System.out.println("Freezing"); else System.out.println("At or Below Freezing");

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    The given if-else statement is not written correctly. In an if-else statement, the condition in the "else" part should not have a condition. It should simply be "else". Therefore, the correct answer is false.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    Simplify the following expressions to either true or false: Given: x is an integer variable holding the value 3 y is an integer variable holding the value -5 z is an integer variable holding the value -4 (x > z) || (y < z) && !(y < x)

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The expression is evaluating whether the statement "(x > z) || (y < z) && !(y < x)" is true or false.

    The expression consists of three parts connected by logical operators.

    1) (x > z) - This part checks if the value of x is greater than the value of z. In this case, x is 3 and z is -4, so this part evaluates to true.

    2) (y < z) - This part checks if the value of y is less than the value of z. In this case, y is -5 and z is -4, so this part evaluates to true.

    3) !(y < x) - This part checks if the value of y is not less than the value of x. In this case, y is -5 and x is 3, so y is indeed less than x. Therefore, this part evaluates to false.

    Finally, the expression is evaluated using the logical operators. The "&&" operator has higher precedence than the "||" operator, so the expression is evaluated as follows:

    (y < z) && !(y < x) = true && false = false

    (x > z) || false = true || false = true

    Therefore, the overall expression evaluates to true.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    True of False. Java is not case-sensitive

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    Java is case-sensitive, meaning that it distinguishes between uppercase and lowercase letters. This means that variables, method names, and other identifiers must be written with the correct capitalization in order for the code to compile and run correctly. For example, "myVariable" and "myvariable" would be considered as two different variables in Java. Therefore, the correct answer is False.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    This is how you write an if-else statement that will display JCCC 45% of the time, else it will display Cavaliers. if (Greenfoot.getRandomNumber(100) < 45)     System.out.println("JCCC"); else     System.out.println("Cavaliers");

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The given code uses the Greenfoot.getRandomNumber(100) method to generate a random number between 0 and 99. If the generated number is less than 45, it will display "JCCC", otherwise it will display "Cavaliers". Since the condition is checking if the generated number is less than 45, which means it has a 45% chance of being true, the statement "JCCC" will be displayed approximately 45% of the time. Therefore, the correct answer is true.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    Write a statement that will declare an integer instance variable called count and set its initial value to 0.

    • A.

      Public int count = 0;

    • B.

      Public count = 0;

    • C.

      Public void count();

    Correct Answer
    A. Public int count = 0;
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "public int count = 0;" because it declares an integer instance variable called "count" and initializes its initial value to 0. This statement follows the correct syntax for declaring and initializing an integer instance variable in Java.

    In object-oriented programming a class is

    • A.

      A group of people sharing the same relationship to the means of production.

    • B.

      A procedure for a calculation inside a program.

    • C.

      The term used for programs

    • D.

      A model or template from which objects are created

    Correct Answer
    D. A model or template from which objects are created
    Explanation
    In object-oriented programming, a class serves as a model or template that defines the properties and behaviors of objects. It specifies the attributes (data) and methods (functions) that an object of that class can have. Objects are instances of a class, meaning they are created based on the class definition. Therefore, the correct answer is "a model or template from which objects are created."

    • A.

      String city = “Overland Park”;

    • B.

      String[“Overland Park];

    • C.

      City = “Overland Park”;

    Correct Answer
    A. String city = “Overland Park”;
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "String city = "Overland Park";" because it declares a local variable named "city" and initializes it with the value "Overland Park". This statement follows the correct syntax for declaring and initializing a string variable in Java.

    The best example for the correct way to name a class is

    • A.

      Bank account

    • B.

      BankAccount

    • C.

      Bank_Account

    • D.

      BankAccount

    Correct Answer
    B. BankAccount
    Explanation
    The correct way to name a class is "BankAccount" because it follows the standard naming convention of using PascalCase for class names. This convention suggests that each word in the class name should start with a capital letter and there should be no underscores or spaces between the words. Using this naming convention improves code readability and consistency.

    Write a method signature for a method named "randomMove". The method has no parameters, and it does not return a value.

    • A.

      Public randomMove()

    • B.

      Public void randomMove()

    • C.

      Public void randomMove

    Correct Answer
    B. Public void randomMove()
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "public void randomMove()". This is the correct method signature for a method named "randomMove" that has no parameters and does not return a value. The "public" keyword indicates that the method can be accessed from other classes. The "void" keyword indicates that the method does not return any value.

    Rate this question:

  • 13. 

    What the value of x is at the end:        int i=0;      int x=0;             while (i < 4)         {             x = x + i;             i++;         }

    • A.

    • B.

      2

    • C.

      3

    • D.

      4

    Correct Answer
    C. 3
    Explanation
    The value of x at the end of the code is 3. This is because the while loop runs 4 times, with i starting at 0 and incrementing by 1 each time. Inside the loop, x is updated by adding the current value of i to it. So, on the first iteration, x becomes 0+0=0, on the second iteration x becomes 0+1=1, on the third iteration x becomes 1+2=3, and on the fourth iteration x becomes 3+3=6. However, since the condition i

  • 14. 

    Given the following variable declarations, evaluate the following Boolean expression: int a= 7; int b = 12; int c = 12; int d = 7; (a ==c ||a ==b)

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    The given Boolean expression is evaluating whether either a is equal to c or a is equal to b. In this case, a is not equal to c (7 is not equal to 12) and a is not equal to b (7 is not equal to 12), so the expression evaluates to False.

    Rate this question:

  • 15. 

    Variable Declarations need a data type and a variable name

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Variable declarations in programming languages require both a data type and a variable name. The data type specifies the type of data that the variable can hold, such as integer, float, or string. The variable name is used to identify and refer to the variable in the code. Without a data type, the programming language would not know how to allocate memory for the variable, and without a variable name, the programmer would not be able to access or manipulate the variable. Therefore, both a data type and a variable name are necessary for variable declarations.

    Rate this question:

  • 16. 

    Which of the following is not a data type in Java?

    Which is the best declaration for  a variable that will hold monthly rainfall. It is initialized to 0?

    • A.

      Float totalMonthlyRainfall = 0.0 ;

    • B.

      Int totalMonthlyRainfall = 0;

    • C.

      Float totalMonthlyRainfall;

    • D.

      Int totalMonthlyRainfall;

    Correct Answer
    A. Float totalMonthlyRainfall = 0.0 ;
    Explanation
    The best declaration for a variable that will hold monthly rainfall and is initialized to 0 is "float totalMonthlyRainfall = 0.0 ;". This is because rainfall is typically measured in decimal values, so using a float data type allows for more precise calculations. Additionally, initializing the variable to 0 ensures that it starts with a default value before any rainfall data is recorded.

    • A.

      FirstName, lastName

    • B.

      Limit, i

    • C.

      FirstName, lastName, limit, i

    Correct Answer
    B. Limit, i
    Explanation
    The local variables in the given code are "limit" and "i". These variables are declared and initialized within the method "countToFive" and are used within the while loop to control the iteration and print the value of "i" until it reaches the limit of 5. The variables "firstName" and "lastName" are instance variables of the class and are not considered local variables in this context.

    Mark the arrays that are declared correctly by good programming standard.

    • A.

      Int[] scores;

    • B.

      Int scores [];

    • C.

      Float[] rates;

    • D.

      Float rates [];

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Int[] scores;
    C. Float[] rates;
    Explanation
    The arrays "int[] scores;" and "float[] rates;" are declared correctly by good programming standard. In Java, it is recommended to declare arrays using the square brackets immediately after the data type. Therefore, "int[] scores;" and "float[] rates;" follow this convention and are considered to be declared correctly. On the other hand, "int scores [];" and "float rates [];" also work in Java, but they are not considered as good programming practice.

    Rate this question:

  • 23. 

    Declare and create a new array of 5 elements for a scores array.

    • A.

      Int[] scores = new int[5];

    • B.

      Int[5] scores = new int[];

    • C.

      Int scores = new int[5];

    Correct Answer
    A. Int[] scores = new int[5];
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "int[] scores = new int[5];". This is the correct way to declare and create a new array of 5 elements for a scores array in Java. The "int[]" specifies that the variable "scores" is an array of integers, and "new int[5]" creates a new array with a size of 5 elements.

    Rate this question:

  • 24.

    • C.

      Scores[5] = 5;

    Correct Answer
    A. Scores[3] = 5;
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "scores[3] = 5;" because it correctly assigns the value of 5 to the element at index 3 in the scores array.

    Objects are created from

    • A.

      Methods

    • B.

      Classes

    • C.

      Parameters

    • D.

      Commands

    Correct Answer
    B. Classes
    Explanation
    Objects are created from classes. In object-oriented programming, a class is a blueprint or template that defines the properties and behaviors of an object. It is like a blueprint for creating objects. When we create an object, we are essentially creating an instance of a class, which allows us to access and use the properties and behaviors defined within the class. Therefore, classes are used to create objects.

    • C.

      Instances

    • D.

      Parameters

    Correct Answer
    A. Methods
    Explanation
    Methods are blocks of code that are used to perform specific tasks or actions. They are associated with objects and can be called upon to execute a particular set of instructions. Methods can have parameters, which are variables that are passed into the method to provide it with necessary information. In this context, methods are the correct answer because they are the code blocks responsible for performing specific tasks or actions within objects.

    Rate this question:

    This specifies what type of data a method call with return:

    • A.

      Parameters

    • B.

      Commands

    • C.

      Class type

    • D.

      Return type

    Correct Answer
    D. Return type
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "return type". In programming, a method is a block of code that performs a specific task. When a method is called, it can return a value or perform an action. The return type specifies the type of data that the method will return after it has completed its execution. It could be a primitive type like int or double, or a non-primitive type like a class or an array. The return type is important as it helps the programmer understand what kind of data they can expect to receive from the method.

      Signature

    Correct Answer
    D. Signature
    Explanation
    The specification of a method, which includes its return type, name, and parameters, is called its signature. The signature acts as a unique identifier for the method and helps distinguish it from other methods in the program. It provides crucial information about the method's functionality and how it can be used.

    When you need to call a method from a different class you must specify the class name before the method name using:

    • A.

      Dot notation

    • B.

      Parenthetical citation

    • C.

      Curly braces

    • D.

      Spaces

    Correct Answer
    A. Dot notation
    Explanation
    When calling a method from a different class, the class name must be specified before the method name using dot notation. Dot notation is a way to access members (methods or variables) of a class by using the class name followed by a dot (.) and then the member name. This allows the program to identify which class the method belongs to and execute the correct method. Parenthetical citation, curly braces, and spaces are not used for this purpose.

    By convention, method names in Java should always start with a:

    • A.

      Capital letter

    • B.

      Small letter but use capital letters for the beginning of words with no spaces (camel casing)

    Correct Answer
    B. Small letter but use capital letters for the beginning of words with no spaces (camel casing)
    Explanation
    In Java, it is a convention to start method names with a small letter but use capital letters for the beginning of words with no spaces. This convention is known as camel casing. By following this convention, it improves code readability and consistency. Starting method names with a capital letter is not a convention in Java.

    A bit of memory that belongs to an object to store information is called a:

    • A.

      Method call

    • B.

      Instance variable

    • C.

      Return type

    Correct Answer
    B. Instance variable
    Explanation
    An instance variable is a bit of memory that belongs to an object and is used to store information. It is different from a method call, which is a way to invoke a method or function in an object. The return type, on the other hand, refers to the type of value that a method or function returns. Therefore, the correct answer is instance variable.

    Good Java coding practice dictates that we should declare all of our variables:

    • A.

      At the top of the class

    • B.

      Inside of the method that it is going to be used in

    • C.

      At the end of the class

    Correct Answer
    A. At the top of the class
    Explanation
    In Java, it is considered good coding practice to declare all variables at the top of the class. This is known as variable declaration at the class level. By declaring variables at the top of the class, it becomes easier to locate and understand all the variables used in the class. It also helps in avoiding any confusion or errors that may arise from declaring variables in different parts of the class. Additionally, declaring variables at the top of the class allows for better organization and readability of the code.

      ==

    • D.

      /=

    Correct Answer
    B. =
    Explanation
    The symbol "=" is used in an assignment statement to store a value into a variable. It is used to assign a specific value to a variable, allowing us to store and manipulate data in a program.

    This statement  can be added to the IF statement to specify what should happen if the condition is false:

    • A.

      When

    • B.

      While

    • C.

      Do

    • D.

      Else

    Correct Answer
    D. Else
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "else" because in programming, the "else" statement is used in conjunction with the "if" statement to specify an alternative action to be taken if the condition in the "if" statement evaluates to false. It allows the program to execute a different set of instructions when the condition is not met.

    Putting this symbol in front of something means NOT:

    • A.

      . (dot

    • B.

      ! (exclamation mark)

    • C.

      ^(caret)

    • D.

      –(dash)

    Correct Answer
    B. ! (exclamation mark)
    Explanation
    The exclamation mark (!) is used to indicate "NOT" in programming languages and logical expressions. It is commonly used to negate a condition or reverse the truth value of a statement. In this context, putting the exclamation mark in front of something means that the opposite or negation of that something is true.

    These symbols mean AND, which will join two conditions:

    • A.

      &&

    • B.

      !!

    • C.

      ||

    • D.

    Correct Answer
    A. &&
    Explanation
    The symbols "&&" represent the logical operator "AND" in programming. It is used to join two conditions and evaluates to true only if both conditions are true. In other words, it checks if both conditions are satisfied simultaneously.

    When we need to repeat code or do a similar task repeatedly, we need a:

    • A.

      Constant

    • B.

      Loop

    • C.

      Modifier

    • D.

      Instance

    Correct Answer
    B. Loop
    Explanation
    When we need to repeat code or do a similar task repeatedly, we need a loop. A loop is a programming construct that allows us to execute a block of code multiple times. It helps in automating repetitive tasks and saves us from writing the same code multiple times. By using loops, we can iterate over a collection of data, perform calculations, or execute a set of instructions until a certain condition is met. Overall, loops provide a way to efficiently and effectively repeat code and perform repetitive tasks in programming.

    This type of data structure allows us to store many values of the same type and access them using an index, like this whiteKeys[2], which would access the third element:

    • A.

      String

    • B.

      Array

    • C.

      Double

    • D.

      Constant

    Correct Answer
    B. Array
    Explanation
    An array is a data structure that allows us to store multiple values of the same type and access them using an index. In this case, the example given is whiteKeys[2], which would access the third element in the array. Arrays are commonly used when we need to store and manipulate a collection of values in a systematic way.

    • C.

      Static

    • D.

      Boolean

    Correct Answer
    A. Null
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "null." In programming, "null" is a special expression that represents the absence of a value or the lack of an object. It is often used to indicate that a variable or reference does not currently point to any valid data.

     A method with a void return type does not return a value.  

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    A method with a void return type does not return a value. In programming, the return type of a method determines the type of value that the method can return. When a method has a void return type, it means that the method does not return any value. This is useful for methods that perform actions or have side effects but do not need to return a result.

    Actors are classes that are placed into the world

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Actors are classes that are placed into the world. This means that in a programming context, actors are objects or instances of a class that can be placed or instantiated within a virtual or physical environment. They can interact with other actors and the environment, and perform actions or behaviors defined by their class. This is a common concept in game development, where actors can represent characters, objects, or other entities within the game world.

    Computers do not understand source code that we type in so it needs to be translated into machine code by a compiler before being executed.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Computers operate using machine code, a low-level language that consists of binary instructions. However, humans typically write programs in high-level languages such as C++, Java, or Python. To bridge this gap, a compiler is used to translate the source code written by humans into machine code that the computer can understand and execute. Therefore, the statement that computers do not understand source code and require a compiler to translate it into machine code is true.
