Capítulo 2 – Language Fundamentals (A)

No.-Answer-Remark
1-g -None of the Above -Section 12.1.4 of the Java Language Specification states the following, "The method main must be declared public,
static, and void. It must accept a single argument that is an array of Strings." In each of the three class declarations, the single argument is
indeed an array of Strings.
2-f -Compiler Error -Variables declared inside of a block or method are called local variables and they are not automatically initialized. (Locally
declared arrays are an exception to the rule, but none are used in this question.) The compiler will generate an error as a result of the attempt to
access the local variables before a value has been assigned.
3-b d f i j k -catch instanceof const goto import transient -Both "const" and "goto" are java keywords, but neither is used.
4-b -Prints: null -Null is converted to a string and is printed as the word null.
5-c e g i -const continue extends break -Both "const" and "goto" are java keywords, but neither is used. All of the letters of all java
keywords are lower case. In this question, the letter O of the word "instanceof" was upper case.
6-d e f -Run time error at line 2. Run time error at line 5. Run time error at line 8. -Section 12.1.4 of the Java Language Specification states
the following, "The method main must be declared public, static, and void. It must accept a single argument that is an array of Strings." The rule
is not enforced by the compiler, but should instead be enforced by the Java Virtual Machine. However, not every JVM enforces the rule. Even
so, for the purposed of the SCJP exam, the main method should be declared as stated in the Java Language Specification. In this example,
each of the three main methods generates a run-time exception because they are not declared static.
7-b d e f g h -goto package synchronized default interface volatile -Both "const" and "goto" are java keywords, but neither is used.
8-e -None of the Above -Unicode literals are declared using single quotes but none of the declarations here use single quotes. The declaration
of char, b, is also problematic because it contains more than one char.
9-b g i -goto implements const -Both "const" and "goto" are java keywords, but neither is used.
10-b -Prints: BCD -The index for the first element of an array is zero.
11-d -Prints: -128,127 -A byte is an 8 bit signed value.
12-c -Prints: 7f,ffff,7fff -A byte is an 8 bit signed value. A char is a 16 bit unsigned value. A short is a 16 bit signed value. The left most bit of a
signed value is the sign bit. The sign bit is zero for positive numbers and one for negative numbers. The hexadecimal value 7f is equal to the
decimal value 127. The hexadecimal value ff is equal to the decimal value negative 128.
13-a -boolean b1 = true; -There are two primitive boolean values: true and false. Both must be written with lower case letters. Although the C
programming language accepts zero as a boolean value, the Java programming language does not.
14-b -Prints: -32768,32767 -A short is a 16 bit signed value.
15-b -Prints: 8000000000000000,7fffffffffffffff -A long is a 64 bit signed value. The left most bit is the sign bit. The sign bit is zero for positive
numbers and one for negative numbers.

compiler, but should instead be enforced by the Java Virtual Machine. However, not every JVM enforces the rule. Even so, for the purposed of
the SCJP exam, the main method should be declared as stated in the Java Language Specification. Note: the Java Language Specification
provides the option to disallow the declaration of more than one class in a single source code file if more than one of the classes in the file is
referred to by code that exists outside of the file. The restriction is stated as an option and not a requirement. This option is not enforced by any
compiler that I have tested.
17-e -Compiler Error. -Teal.b1 is always initialized because it is a class member. Arrays are always initialized even if declared locally. Local
variable b2 is not initialized because it is local. Consequentially, a compiler error is generated when the attempt is made to print the value of b2.

15-f -Prints: 80000000,7fffffff -An int is a 32 bit signed value. The left most bit is the sign bit. The sign bit is zero for positive numbers and one
for negative numbers.
16-e -Run-time exception -The index is incremented before the array access expression is evaluated so the first element accessed is at index
one instead of zero. An ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException is thrown when an attempt is made to access an element past the end of the array.

Capítulo 3 – Operators and Assignments (A)

No.-Answer-Remark
1-f -Compiler Error -The static main method can not access the non-static method m.
2-e -Prints: true,false,false -The right operand of the conditional "or" operator is not evaluated if the left hand operand is true. In this case the
right hand operand of the conditional "or" operator is the result of the conditional "and" expression. Therefore, the conditional "and" expression is
not evaluated.
3-b -Prints: false,false,true -The result of dividing two float values is a float. When the float is converted to a double a rounding error is
introduced. For that reason, the value of variable a is different from the value of variables b and c.
4-d -Prints: false,true,true -The right operand of the conditional "or" operator is evaluated only if the left hand operand is false. In this case, the
left operand of the conditional "or" operator is false so the right operand must also be evaluated. The right operand of the conditional "and"
operator is only evaluated if the left hand operand is true. In this case, the left hand operand is true so the right hand expression is evaluated.
5-j -Compiler error -Both operands of the conditional "and" operator and conditional "or" operator must be of type boolean.
6-b -Prints: 2 -Java evaluates expressions from left to right while respecting operator precedence. The multiplication operator has higher
precedence than the logical and bitwise operators. The "and" operator has higher precedence than the "exclusive or" operator. The "or" operator
has lower precedence. Although complete memorization of the operator precedence chart is not necessary, the level required for this question is
required. (1 | 2 ^ 3 * 2 & 13 | 2), (1 | (2 ^ ((3 * 2) & 13)) | 2), (1 | (2 ^ ((6) & 13)) | 2), (1 | (2 ^ (4)) | 2), (1 | 6 | 2 = 7), (7%5=2)
7-b -Prints: 2,3 -Primitive type variables are passed to methods by value. In other words, only the value of the variable is passed to the method
so the method has no access to the variable itself. If the method modifies a primitive value that has been passed to the method as a parameter,
then the modification does not impact the variable outside of the method. Instead, only the value of the local copy is modified. For that reason,
the method m does not change the value of the variable y in the main method. However, method m does indeed have direct access to the
member variable x and its value is modified by method m and the modification is seen within the main method.
8-a -Prints: 78 ABC*$ -When char variables a and b are promoted to String types they are printed as *$. When not promoted to String types
they are printed as the numeric sum of 0x2a and 0x24. Note: 0x2a is decimal 42 and 0x24 is decimal 36.
9-g -Compiler error at line 10. -The reference "base" is of type "Base[]", therefore an explicit cast to type "Base[]" is required.
10-j -Compiler error. -The result of the addition of a and b is an int. The attempt to assign the int result to a byte variable e generates a possible
loss of precision error. The precedence of the cast operator is higher than the precedence of the addition operator. Therefore, the cast applies
only to variable a and not to the result of the addition.
11-c -Prints: 1,2,3,4,5,3 -Java evaluates expressions from left to right while respecting operator precedence. j = 1 + (((2 * 3) % 4) + 5)
12-g -Compiler error at line 5. -Although the referenced object is indeed an array of type int, an explicit cast is necessary to cast the obj
reference to an int array.
13-b -Prints: BBABBA -The first method call, m(null,null), calls method m with two null literals that have type null. Both null literals are promoted
to type B because B is more specific than type A. As a result, m(B x, B y) is invoked. The second method call, m(a=null,b=null), calls m with a

14-d -Prints: -1,127 -The initial value of b is -1. The two's compliment representation of -1 is the binary value 11111111. If the left hand
operand of the shift operator is of type byte, short, or char then the left operand is promoted to an int. When a byte equal to minus 1 is promoted
to an int the resulting int representation of minus one has all 32 bits set to one. When an int value of minus one is shifted right one bit the result
is a sign bit of zero and the remaining 31 bits set to one. If that value were printed as an int it would be the maximum positive value of an int.
However, if it is cast to a byte then it is reduced to eight bits that are all set to one. As stated earlier, that is the two's compliment representation
of negative one. In the line marked with the number three the byte value of negative one is shifted to the right 25 bits. First, the byte is promoted
to an int value of minus one. The result is all 32 bits of the int are set to one. When the int is shifted right 25 bits the result is 25 bits set to zero
and the right most seven bits set to one. That is the binary representation of 127. When the int value of 127 is cast to a byte the result is also the
value 127.

A constructor is used to create an instance of an object so it would make no sense to apply the "static" modifier in an attempt to disassociate the
constructor from an object instance. An object is not available to multiple threads during the construction process so the "synchronized" modifier

be applied to a top level class to allow the class to be access from outside of the package. The abstract modifier prevents the class from being
instantiated. An abstract class may include zero, one or more abstract methods. The final modifier prevents a class from being extended. The
strictfp modifier can be applied to a class, interface, or method to guarantee that all float or double operations are processed according to the
IEEE 754 standard. Without the strictfp modifier the float or double operations can be processed using the greatest precision available. For
example, a 64 bit CPU could process intermediate float operations using 64 rather than only 32 bits. If a class is marked strictfp then all float or
double expressions within all nested classes, methods, constructors, static initializers, instance initializers, and variable initializers will also be

best way to understand a program involving the operation of nested loops is to modify the print statement so that it prints all of the variables
involved in the loop. The printed results will provide the best possible explanation. The values of i, j and k for each iteration are as follows:
(1,0,0)(2,0,1)(3,0,2).

and control goes to the boolean expression of the do-loop. On the third iteration case 3 is processed and the break label2 statement cause the
do-loop to complete abruptly without processing the boolean loop expression so j is not incremented. On the fourth iteration case 4 is processed
and the break label 1 statement causes the outer loop to complete abruptly.

evaluated as control transfers out of the loop. However, if the break statement transfers control out of a try-catch-finally block, then the finally
clause is processed. The first iteration of this code example executes the case statement with the value 3. As a result, the statement "break
label3" is executed causing the inner most loop to complete abruptly and control to be transferred out of the inner most loop to the second
nested loop. The boolean expression of the second loop is evaluted and variable j is incremented as a side effect. The boolean expression
evalutes as true and a second iteration begins. Variable j is incremented again at the top of the loop and varible i is incremented at the top of the
inner most loop. The switch expression evaluates as six. A continue statement without a label will cause the current iteration of the enclosing
loop to end and the next iteration to begin. As a result, the boolean expression that controls the loop is evaluated as the next iteration begins.
Similarly, a continue statement that has a label transfers control to the next iteration of the enclosing loop that has the same label. If the
continue statement causes control to break out of a nested loop to transfer control to an outer loop with a matching label, then execution of the
nested loop is completed abruptly as control transfers to the outer loop. Furthermore, the boolean expression that controls the nested loop is not
evaluated as control is abruptly transferred to the labeled outer loop.

1-b -2 -While the reference to an instance method is resolved at run-time based on the type of the referenced object; the reference to a static

subclass C. Suppose that a reference, r, of type A refers to a concrete instance of type C. If r is used to invoke an instance method then the
reference will resolve to the overriding implemenation in the subclass C. The same is not true for static methods. Since the reference to a static
method is resolved at compile-time based on the type of the reference, the actual method referenced will be the static method in the superclass
and not the subclass method. If a method could be declared both abstract and static, then the actual method referenced at run-time could be the

8-e -None of the Above -A method, field, and a nested class can share the same name because they are used in different contexts and use
different lookup procedures. Please note, however, that class names usually begin with an upper case letter while method and field names
usually begin with a lower case letter. Also note that a nested class can not share the same name with its enclosing class. However, a method
and field can share a name with the enclosing class. Even so, it not a good idea to name a method with the name of the enclosing class
because it could be confused with a constructor.
9-c -Compile-time error. -An anonymous class can extend a superclass or it can implement an interface. However, an anonymous class
declaration that extends a superclass is not permitted to have an implements clause.
10-c e -3 5 -Local method variables and method parameters are stored on the stack and go out of scope after the method is exited. Although
a local reference to an object is also stored on the stack, the object itself is stored on the heap. If the reference to the local object is maintained
outside of the method then the locally created object can continue to exist long after the method returns. Since the local or anonymous object
can continue to exist longer than local method variables, the local or anonymous object is not permitted to access local method variables unless
the variable is declared final and is assigned a value before the declaration of the local or anonymous class. The JVM can place a copy of the
value of the final variable directly into the local or anonymous class so there is no further dependence on the method variable.
11-d f g -abstract final strictfp -A local class is a named class that is declared inside of a block. No access modifier can be applied to a local
class declaration. A local class can not be static. A local class can be abstract and can be final. The strictfp modifier can be applied to a class,
interface, or method to guarantee that all float or double operations are processed according to the IEEE 754 standard. Without the strictfp
modifier the float or double operations can be processed using the greatest precision available. For example, a 64 bit CPU could process
intermediate float operations using 64 rather than only 32 bits. If a class is marked strictfp then all float or double expressions within all nested
classes, methods, constructors, static initializers, instance initializers, and variable initializers will also be strictfp.
12-f -Compiler Error -Class Z is a non-static member class of class D. Since Z is non-static, an instance of Z can not be instantiated without
first creating an instance of class Z. Therefore, the correct syntax for creating an instance of class Z would be as follows: "new D().new Z()".
13-b -Prints: Z -Class Z is a static member class of class E. Static member classes are similar to ordinary top-level classes with the added
advantage of having access to all of the static fields and methods (including those that are private) of the enclosing class. Since Z can be
instantiated without first creating an instance of the enclosing class, only the letter "Z" is printed.
14-d -An anonymous class is implicitly final. -An anonymous class can extend another class or implement an interface. If the anonymous class
extends another class then the class instance creation expression can include parameters. The parameters will be passed to a constructor of
the super class. If the anonymous class implements an interface, then the instance creation expression can not include any parameters. An
anonymous class can not be extended so it also can not be abstract. An anonymous class can not be static. An anonymous class can not
declare a constructor, but it can declare an instance initializer.
15-e -Prints: Z.m1 Y.m1 -Member classes have access to the private fields and methods of the enclosing class and other member classes.
Furthermore, the enclosing class has access to the private fields and methods of the member classes.
16-a b c e -s1 s2 s3 s5 -Class Z is a local class defined within the code block of method m1 of class C. Class Z therefore has access to
all fields and methods (static, non-static, and private) of class C. Additionally, class Z has access to the local variables and parameters of
method m1 that are declared final. Consequently, class Z does not have access to parameter s6 or local variable s4. A local variable lives on
the stack and disappears as soon as the method is exited. A local class, however, might continue to exist even after the method has been
exited. For that reason, a local class can not access local variables that might have a short life cycle than the local class.

abstract method declarations and is therefore assumed to be incomplete. A final class can not be extended. The implementation of an abstract
final class could not be completed. The declaration of class C results in a compiler error because a final class may not be listed in the extends

3-a c e f g h l -abstract final private protected public static strictfp -The access modifiers, public, protected and private, can not be

not a local class or top level class. Extends and implements are keywords but are not modifiers. Synchronized can be applied to a method but
not a class. Transient and volatile can be applied to a field but not a class. The strictfp modifier can be applied to a class, interface, or method to
guarantee that all float or double operations are processed according to the IEEE 754 standard. Without the strictfp modifier the float or double
operations can be processed using the greatest precision available. For example, a 64 bit CPU could process intermediate float operations
using 64 rather than only 32 bits. If a class is marked strictfp then all float or double expressions within all nested classes, methods,
constructors, static initializers, instance initializers, and variable initializers will also be strictfp.
4-a c d f -A nested class is any class that is declared within the body of another class or interface. A top level class is a class this is not a
nested class. An inner class is a nested class that is not static. A named class is any class that is not anonymous. -Every class declared within
the body of another class or interface is known as a nested class. If the nested class does not have a name then it is an anonymous class. If the
nested class has a name then it is not anonymous. If the nested class has a name and is not declared inside of a block then it is a member
class. If the member class is not static then it is an inner class. If the class is not nested then it is a top level class. Chapter 8 of the Java

abstract method. An abstract class can never be declared final.
7-b -2 -An abstract method has no implementation and is not useful until an extending class implements the method. Private methods are not
inherited and can not be overridden. If an abstract method is declared private then it can not be implemented in a subclass. Although a method
may not be both private and abstract a nested class can be; because another nested class can extend the abstract class and implement any
abstract methods.
8-d -4 -Methods and fields can share the same name because they are used in different contexts and use different lookup procedures. They
can even share the same name with the class in which they are declared. Please note, however, that class names usually begin with an upper

10-b -2 -The strictfp modifier in a superclass declaration has no impact on an overriding method in a subclass. For that reason, it makes no
sense to include the strictfp modifier in an abstract method declaration. By generating a compile time error, the compiler reminds the
programmer of the futility of combining the abstract and strictfp modifiers. A class, however, may be both abstract and strictfp. When applied to
a class, the strictfp modifier causes all float and double expressions within the class to be strictfp. This implies that all float and double
expressions are strictfp in all nested classes, methods, constructors and all static, instance, and variable initializers. The declaration of an
abstract method in a strictfp class is entirely legal even though the implementation of the method in a subclass need not be strictfp.

instance creation process begins with a call to the constructor of H. The first line of the construct is an implicit call to the super class construct.
The call to the super class constructor does not appear in the source code, so the compiler added it implicitly. Before the body of the super class

synchronized block. For that reason, the transfer of control from thread T1 to any waiting thread can not be accelerated by moving the notify
method to an earlier point in the synchronized block. The behavior of Thread.yield is platform specific. However, at least some implementations
of the yield method will not yield to a thread that has a lower priority. Invoking the Thread.yield method is like offering a suggestion to the JVM to
allow another thread to run. The response to the suggestion is platform specific.
8-a -Prints: A -If a Runnable target object is passed to the constructor of the Thread class, then the Thread.run method will invoke the run
method of the Runnable target. In this case, the Thread.run method is overridden by A.run. The A.run method does nothing more than print the
letter A. The invocation of the A.start method inside the main method results in the invocation of A.run and the letter A is printed. The B.run
method is never invoked.
9-b d -A program will terminate only when all user threads stop running. A thread inherits its daemon status from the thread that created it. -
10-e -Compile-time error. -Remember that the Object.notify method is an instance method and can not be invoked from a static context. Also,

11-d f g -By entering a synchronized instance method. By entering the body of a block that is synchronized on the Object. By entering a
synchronized static method of a class of type Class. -Blocking on IO or invoking the Thread.sleep or Object.wait method causes a Thread to
enter the non-runnable state. Invoking the notify method on an Object wakes up a Thread that is waiting on the Object. The Thread that invokes
wait or notify on an Object should already be the owner of the Object's monitor. Invoking the wait or notify method does not cause the Thread to
become the owner. Static methods are synchronized on the Class object of the class. Instance methods are synchronized on the instance of the
class.
12-d -Compiler error. -Both the sleep and join methods declare an InterruptedException that must be caught or declared in the throws clause of

13-a -The process of executing a synchronized method requires the thread to acquire a lock. -The synchronized modifier can not be applied to
a class. A method that overrides a synchronized method does not have to be synchronized. A thread must first acquire the lock on the object
instance on which a synchronized instance method is invoked. A synchronized static method is synchronized on the lock for the Class object
that represents the class for which the method is a member.
14-a c -The first number printed is greater than or equal to 0. The second number printed must always be greater than 5000. -The notify
method is never invoked on Thread a1 so it will sleep for at least five seconds. The invocation of the join method forces the main thread to wait
for the completion of Thread a1. The argument of 6000 will allow the main thread to wait for six seconds if necessary, but we know that thread
a1 will complete in only five seconds. The first number printed will be greater than or equal to zero and the second number will be greater than
or equal to 5000. The synchronized block is necessary because it is necessary to hold the lock on an object when the wait method is invoked.
15-e -An IllegalThreadStateException is thrown at run-time. -In reality, the JVM will probably not behave as described by the correct answer.
This is a case where the exam tests your knowledge of the specification of the Thread.start method and ignores the actual behavior of the 1.4
version of the JVM. In reality, the JVM would probably ignore the second attempt to start the thread and would probably not throw the exception
if the thread were already dead. For the purposes of the exam, invoking the start method on a thread that has already been started will generate
an IllegalThreadStateException. The Thread.join method is included here to verify that the thread is already dead before the start method is
invoked the second time. If this code is executed using the 1.4 version of the JVM, the exception will not be thrown. However, for the purposes
of the exam, the exception is always thrown. The real exam question will probably not include the invocation of the join method.

19-a b -Prints: A1A2A3B1B2B3. Prints: B1B2B3A1A2A3. -Two threads are started. The run method declares a local variable that is a String
literal containing an empty String. String literals are held in a pool and are shared. If the empty String literal appears at 10 locations in a program
then all 10 will refer to the same String. Both threads have a separate copy of the local variables so each thread has a separate copy of a
reference that refers to the empty String literal. Even though the reference held by each thread is unique the String instance itself is shared
between the two threads and therefore the lock on the String is also shared between the two threads. The shared lock on the shared String
literal will provide effective synchronization.

and offer the thread scheduler an opportunity to allow a different thread to execute based on the discretion of the thread scheduler. The thread
scheduler may select the same thread to run immediately or it may allow a different thread to run. The thread.yield method is a native method so

B1A1B2A2B3A3. Other output sequences are also possible. The attempt to synchronize on the local variable, b, has no impact on the execution
of the code. Each thread invokes the run method separately and each has a separate copy of the local variables. Since each thread has a
separate copy of the local variable, b, then each thread also has a separate copy of the lock on its own copy of local variable b. In general, a
lock on a local variable will have no impact on synchronization. An exception to the rule would be if the local variable is a reference to a shared

7-e -Compiler Error at 3 -The Byte class has only two constructors. One accepts a byte primitive and the other accepts a String. The literal
primitive that appears in the constructor invocation statement at line 3 has type int and the compiler will not implicitly narrow the int to a byte. In
line 1 a literal of type int is implicitly narrowed to a byte by the compiler. The compiler will implicitly do a narrowing conversion for an assignment
statement if the right hand operand is a compile time constant of type byte, short, char, or int and the value falls within the range of the variable
on the left and if the variable is of type byte, short, or char. For that reason, a constant int expression that is equal to one may be assigned to a
byte without an explicit cast. The same is not true for the parameters of a method or constructor. The designers of the Java programming

19-g -None of the Above -The capacity is the default capacity of a StringBuffer plus the length of the String used to initialize the StringBuffer.
The default size is 16 and the length of the String is seven so the capacity is 23. This form of the StringBuffer constructor performs two steps.
First, it instantiates the internal char array with the capacity described above. Second, it calls the StringBuffer.append method to place the String
into the char array.

StringBuffer or an array of byte or char. There is no constructor that will accept a primitive byte or char. Please note that if you want to convert a
primitive to a String then you can use the static String.valueOf method.
2-n -Prints: 1.0,8.0,16.0,1.0,1.0,1.0 -The Float constructor is overloaded. One accepts a primitive of type float. One accepts a primitive of type
double. One accepts a String representation of a floating point literal. All numeric values can be promoted to type double so all numeric values
are accepted by the float constructor. However, the acceptable String representations of numeric values are more restricted. For example,
hexadecimal values are not accepted as Strings.
3-c -Compile-time error. -The valueOf method of the numeric integral wrapper classes, byte, short, int and long, are overloaded. The first
version of valueOf accepts only a single parameter that is a String representation of a numeric integral value. The second parameter represents
the radix or base of the number system. For example, if the radix is two then the number is binary. If the radix is 8 then the number is octal. The
valueOf method of the floating-point wrapper classes do not accept a radix parameter.

5-b c e -Compiler Error at 3 Compiler Error at 4 Compiler Error at 6 -The Byte class has only two constructors. One accepts a byte primitive
and the other accepts a String. The literal primitive that appears in the constructor invocation statement at line 3 has type int and the compiler
will not implicitly narrow the int to a byte. Line 4 generates a compiler error due to the attempt to use an argument of type char. Line 6 generates
a compiler error because the result of the expression is of type int but the variable is of type byte.
6-c -Compiler Error -A compiler error is generated because the Byte class does not have a charValue method. The Byte class extends the
Number class and implements all six of the Number methods. It is interesting to note that four of the Number methods are abstract while two,
byteValue and shortValue, are not abstract. That's because there is a concrete implementation of byteValue and shortValue that just call the
intValue method and then cast the result to the appropriate type.

equality operator will return the value true if the left and right operand are both Boolean.TRUE or if the left and right operand are both
Boolean.FALSE. The same is true if the results of the Boolean.valueOf method are compared with the equality operator because the
comparison is really just a comparison of references to the constants Boolean.TRUE or Boolean.FALSE. Please note that Boolean.valueOf is
generally preferable over the use of the Boolean constructor because the Boolean.valueOf method does not create a new instance of a Boolean
object. The valueOf method is much faster than the use of the constructor and also saves memory. The use of the Boolean constructor is not
recommended in any situation where the valueOf method is applicable.

16-g -None of the Above -The Boolean objects are converted to Strings before being placed into the internal character array of the
StringBuffer. After the first Boolean is appended to the StringBuffer, the StringBuffer has a length of four characters. The insert operation inserts
the word false into the StringBuffer starting a character position one. The result is the character sequence tfalserue.
17-d -Run time Error -The constructor for the StringBuffer class does not verify that the input reference parameter is not null before attempting
to invoke methods on the String object. As a result, passing a null reference to the constructor of the StringBuffer class results in an error at run

StringBuffer.append.

expression (a+b) produces the same result each time it is evaluated, each evaluation of the expression produces a new instance of the String.
Since the equality operator compares the references to objects rather than the contents of the objects, the equality operator returns the value
false. The declaration of variables "c" and "d" with the final modifier does not transform the expressions into compile time constants. Instead, it
just prevents variables "c" and "d" from being changed after initialization at runtime. However, if variables "a" and "b" had been declared final
then the result would be different.

other such value that is smaller than the argument. For example, negative four is the floor of negative 3.6. Similarly, the Math.ceil method
returns a primitive of type double that is equal to an integral value and is smaller than any other such value that is larger than the argument. For
example, negative 3.0 is the ceil of negative 3.6. The term larger refers to values that are closer to positive infinity. For example, negative three
is larger than negative four because negative three is closer to positive infinity.
11-e -Prints: DDDLDD -The round method does not return either of the two floating point primitive types. The other methods named in this
question are able to return a floating point primitive type. The sin and sqrt methods return only a primitive double type. The abs, ceil and max
methods are able to return either a float or a double depending on the parameter type.
12-c -Prints: -0.0,0.0 -The Math.min and Math.max methods are overloaded. This version of the Math.min method accepts two parameters of
type float and returns the value that is closer to negative infinity. This version of the Math.max method accepts two input parameters of type float
and returns the value that is closer to positive infinity. Both Math.min and Math.max view -0.0 as being smaller than +0.0.
13-d -Prints: IIILFD -There are four overloaded versions of the Math.min method with versions that declare parameters of type int, long, float
and double. The return type is the same as the parameter type. Arguments of type byte, char and short are promoted to type int.
14-d -Prints: double -The Math.random method returns a value of type double. The value is always positive. The range of values is greater
than or equal to zero and less than one.
15-g -Prints: FDIL -
16-f -None of the Above -If the java.lang.Math.round method is invoked with a primitive float type and the result exceeds the range of type int
then the result is Integer.MAX_VALUE.
17-e -Prints: DDDD -The floor and ceil methods are not overloaded. There is only one version of each method. The parameter type is double
and the return type is double.
18-a -Prints: 0.0,1.0 -The Math.floor method accepts an argument of type double and returns a double. The returned value is the largest whole
number that is smaller than or equal to the argument.

1-c d e f g -TreeMap TreeSet HashMap HashSet WeakHashMap -The Vector and Hashtable methods are synchronized and do not allow
for simultaneous access by multiple threads. The concrete subclasses of the AbstractList, AbstractMap, and AbstractSet classes allow for
unsynchronized read operations by multiple threads. Additionally, the sychronized wrapper methods of the Collections class allow for the
instantiation of a Collection, List, Map, Set, SortedMap, or SortedSet with synchronized methods. If simultaneous read and write operations are
necessary then a synchronized instance should be used.
2-h -Prints: true,true,true -
3-a -false -
4-b -true -
5-e -Prints: true,false,false -HashSet is a subclass of AbstractSet and AbstractCollection and therefore implements the Collection interface.
HashMap extends AbstractMap and implements the Map interface. HashMap does not implement the Collection interface. Hashtable extends
Dictionary and implements the Map interface. Hashtable does not implement Collection.
6-b -Programmer B -Both implementations are technically legal. If two instances of class C are equal, then the field of type int in both classes
will contain the same value and produce a hashcode that is equal. However, by ignoring the contents of the array it is possible that a very large
number of unequal objects will produce the same hashcode causing the distribution of the objects across a hashtable to be less than optimal.
For that reason, the algorithm suggested by programmer A is inferior to the algorithm suggested by programmer B. Therefore, programmer B
gets the higher pay raise.
7-d -Prints: true,true -TreeSet implements the Set interface and the SortedSet interface.
8-c -Calculate the hashCode using both the int field and the array, but only calculate the hashCode once and store the value for future use in an
instance variable. -The value of an immutable object does not change so the value of the hashcode will not change either. Therefore,
calculating the hashcode only once is acceptable.
9-c -LinkedList -The ArrayList and Vector both use an array to store the elements of the list so access to any element using an index is very
fast. The LinkedList is implemented using a doubly linked list so access an element requires the list to be traversed using the links.
10-e -Prints: true,false,false -The Vector.elements method returns an Enumeration over the elements of the vector. Vector implements the List
interface and extends AbstractList so it is also possible to get an Iterator over a Vector by invoking the iterator or listIterator method.
11-b -TreeMap -The requirement to store key/value pairs is directly satisfied by a concrete implementation of the Map interface. The List and
Set interfaces recognize objects, but do not recognize keys and values. The requirement to allow null elements is not satisfied by a Hashtable.
TreeMap and TreeSet store elements in a sorted order based on the key, but the TreeSet does not support key/value pairs.
12-h -Prints: true,true,true -Vector has been upgraded to implement the List interface.
13-a -false -If two objects are equal according to the equals method, then the hashcodes must also be equal. If two objects are not equal
according to the equals method, then the hashcodes may or may not be equal. It is preferable that unequal objects have different hashcodes,
but that is not always possible. Since the hashcode value is a 32 bit primitive int it is not possible to produce a unique hashcode for each value
of a primitive long.
14-b -true -If two objects are equal according to the equals method, then the hashcodes must also be equal. If two objects are not equal
according to the equals method, then the hashcodes may or may not be equal. It is preferable that unequal objects have different hashcodes,
but that is not always possible. Since the hashcode value is a 32 bit primitive int it is not possible to produce a unique hashcode for each value
of a primitive long.
15-e -HashSet -The elements of a Map are key/value pairs so a Map is not a good choice. A List generally accepts duplicate elements. A Set
stores a collection of unique elements. Any attempt to store a duplicate element in a Set is rejected. Adding and removing an element in a
TreeSet involves walking the tree to determine the location of the element. A HashSet stores the elements in a hash table so elements in a
HashSet can be accessed almost as quickly as elements in an array.
16-e -SortedMap -The List and Set interfaces do not support key/value pairs. A list generally allows duplicate entries. A Set rejects duplicate
entries. A Map organizes the entries as key/value pairs. The SortedMap is similar to a Map except that the ordering of the elements is
determined by a comparator or the Comparable interface.
17-b -Prints: false,false,true -This is a trick question. The Collections class is not the same as the Collection interface. The Collections class
contains a variety of methods used to work with collections. For example, Collections.shuffle is used to randomly shuffle the elements of a
Collection. Similarly, the Arrays class provides utility methods for working with arrays.
18-e -LinkedHashSet -The elements of a Map are key/value pairs so a Map is not a good choice. A List generally accepts duplicate elements.
A Set stores a collection of unique elements. Any attempt to store a duplicate element in a Set is rejected. TreeSet stores elements in a sorted
order based on the key. HashSet does not sort the elements based on the key. The iteration order of LinkedHashMap and LinkedHashSet is
clearly defined. By default, the interation order of LinkedHashMap and LinkedHashSet is based on the order in which elements were inserted.
While a LinkedHashSet rejects duplicate entries, the LinkedHashMap allows duplicate entries to replace old entries.
19-d -LinkedList -A stack or queue must be implemented using a data structure that stores the elements based on the order of insertion. Any
data structure that is implemented using a hash table is not a good choice. The ArrayList and Vector are both implemented using an internal
array. Although an array allows elements to be easily organized based on the order of insertion an array does not allow the list of elements to be
easily shifted in memory as elements are appended to the tail of the list and removed from the head of the list. The LinkedList is implemented
using a doubly linked list that allows elements to be easily appended to the tail of the list and removed from the head of the list.

6-c -LinkedList -The ArrayList and Vector both use an array to store the elements of the list. When an element is inserted into the middle of the
list the elements that follow the insertion point must be shifted to make room for the new element. The LinkedList is implemented using a doubly
linked list. An insertion at any point requires only the updating of the links. Therefore, the LinkedList allows for fast insertions and deletions.

12-a -Prints: 1026 -The hashCode is calculated using all three array elements. Since the object is immutable, the hashcode is only calculated
the first time hashCode is invoked.
13-e -None of the above. -The Iterator interface declares three methods: hasNext, next and remove. The ListIterator interface was introduced
in Java 1.2 along with the Iterator interface. The ListIterator interface extends the Iterator interface and declares additional methods to provide
forward and backward iteration capabilities, List modification capabilities, and the ability to determine the position of the iterator in the List. The
ListIterator interface does not extend the List interface.

Set interfaces recognize objects, but do not recognize keys and values. The requirement to allow null elements is not satisfied by a Hashtable.
TreeMap and TreeSet store elements in a sorted order based on the key. The iteration order of LinkedHashMap and LinkedHashSet is not
unspecified. By default, the interation order of LinkedHashMap and LinkedHashSet is based on the order in which elements were inserted.
Optionally, the iteration order of the LinkedHashMap can be set to the order in which the elements were last accessed.
17-g -None of the above. -The RandomAccess interface is a marker interface so it does not declare any methods. Its purpose is to provide
information about the RandomAccess capabilities of a List implementation. Generic list algorithms can check to see if an instance of a List
implements the RandomAccess marker interface. If not, then the algorithm can avoid operations that require fast random access. Both Vector
and ArrayList implement the RandomAccess interface. LinkedList does not implement RandomAccess.
18-b -Prints: false,false,true -This is a trick question. The Collections class is not the same as the Collection interface. The Collections class

1-c -Prints: true,false -HashSet implements the Set interface but not the SortedSet interface.
2-a b c d j -ArrayList LinkedHashMap LinkedHashSet LinkedList Vector -The HashMap, HashSet, Hashtable, and WeakHashMap are all
implemented with an internal hash table that organizes the elements in buckets according to the hash code and not according to the order of
insertion. Although the LinkedHashMap and LinkedHashSet classes also use an internal hash table they both also maintain a linked list through
all of the elements and the list is ordered based on the order of insertion. Optionally, the LinkedHashMap can also maintain the order of the list
based on the time of the most recent access of each element. Both the Vector and ArrayList classes are implemented using an array that
appends elements to the end of the list and so the elements are naturally ordered according to the order of insertion. The LinkedList class is
implemented based on a doubly linked list that appends new elements to the end of the List so elements are naturally stored in the order of
insertion. Of course, the ArrayList, LinkedList, and Vector also allow new elements to be inserted at any point in the List. The TreeMap and
TreeSet classes are both implemented using a tree structure that is ordered based on a comparator or the Comparable interface.
3-b d -The Enumeration interface declares only two methods: hasMoreElements and nextElement. The Iterator interface declares a total of
three methods. -The Enumeration interface was introduced with Java 1.0 to provide an easy means of moving through the elements of a Vector
or the key or values of a Hashtable. The Iterator interface was introduced with the collections framework with Java 1.2. The Iterator interface
declares three methods: hasNext, next and remove. The first two methods, hasNext and next, are similar to the two methods declared in the
Enumeration interface, hasMoreElements and nextElement. The third method of the Iterator interface, remove, provides new functionality
relative to the Enumeration interface.
4-f -Prints: true,false,true -The List and Set interfaces extend the Collection interface but Map does not. WeakHashMap implements Map and
therefore is not an instance of Collection.
5-g -WeakHashMap -Objects become eligible for garbage collection when all references to the object are removed from active threads. With
the exception of a WeakHashMap a key stored in a Map is not garbage collected when the references to the key are removed. A
WeakHashMap can be used to avoid the memory leaks generally associate with the use of other implementations of the Map interface.
6-c -TreeSet -There is no requirement to store key/value pairs so a Map is not a good choice. A List generally accepts duplicate elements. A
Set stores a collection of unique objects. Any attempt to store a duplicate object is rejected. TreeSet stores elements in an order that is
determined either by a comparator or by the comparable interface.
7-d -Prints: false,true,true -The List and Set interfaces extend the Collection interface but Map does not. HashMap implements Map and
therefore is not an instance of Collection.
8-d -Prints: false,true,true -LinkedHashMap does not implement the Collection interface.

Set interfaces recognize objects, but do not recognize keys and values. The requirement to allow null elements is not satisfied by a Hashtable.
TreeMap and TreeSet store elements in a sorted order based on the key.
11-c -LinkedHashSet -The iteration order of a Collection is the order in which an iterator moves through the elements of the Collection. The
iteration order of a LinkedHashSet is determined by the order in which elements are inserted. When a new LinkedHashSet is created by passing
a reference to an existing Collection to the constructor of a LinkedHashSet, the Collection.addAll method will ultimately be invoked. The addAll
method uses an iterator to the existing Collection to iterate through the elements of the existing Collection and add each to the instance of the
new LinkedHashSet. Since the iteration order of the LinkedHashSet is determined by the order of insertion, the iteration order of the new
LinkedHashSet must be the same as the interation order of the old Collection.
12-a f h -LinkedHashMap HashMap Hashtable -The requirement to store key/value pairs is directly satisfied by a concrete implementation of
the Map interface. The List and Set interfaces recognize objects, but do not recognize keys and values. The Hashtable, HashMap, and
LinkedHashMap classes store elements in a hash table. Elements are accessed using a hash code that identifies the bucket that contains the
element. Access time is therefore not dependent on the number of buckets. As long as the hash code methods of the elements are properly
implemented, the time required to access an element in a hash table remains constant as the number of buckets in the hash table grows. In
contrast, the TreeMap and TreeSet classes store elements in a sorted order in a tree structure. Access to any element requires walking the tree
so access time depends on the size of the tree.
13-a c d e -The Iterator interface declares only three methods: hasNext, next and remove. The ListIterator interface provides forward and
backward iteration capabilities. The ListIterator interface provides the ability to modify the List during iteration. The ListIterator interface
provides the ability to determine its position in the List. -The ListIterator interface extends the Iterator interface and declares additional methods
to provide forward and backward iteration capabilities, List modification capabilities, and the ability to determine the position of the iterator in the
List.
14-h -Hashtable -The requirement to store key/value pairs is directly satisfied by a Hashtable or any concrete implementation of the Map
interface. The List and Set interfaces recognize objects, but do not recognize keys and values. The requirement to NOT allow null elements is
satisfied by HashTable but not by HashMap or any of the other Collection implementations that were introduced with Java 1.2 and later.

implements the RandomAccess marker interface. If not, then the algorithm can avoid operations that require fast random access. Both Vector
and ArrayList implement the RandomAccess interface. LinkedList does not implement RandomAccess.
16-a -LinkedHashMap -The requirement to store key/value pairs is directly satisfied by a concrete implementation of the Map interface. The
List and Set interfaces recognize objects, but do not recognize keys and values. The requirement to allow null elements is not satisfied by a
Hashtable. The LinkedHashMap offers the option to remove the least recently used element when a new element is added. The LinkedHashSet
does not offer the LRU option.
17-c -LinkedHashMap -The iteration order of a Collection is the order in which an iterator moves through the elements of the Collection. The
iteration order of a LinkedHashMap is determined by the order in which elements are inserted. When a new LinkedHashMap is created by
passing a reference to an existing Collection to the constructor of a LinkedHashMap the Collection.addAll method will ultimately be invoked. The
addAll method uses an iterator to the existing Collection to iterate through the elements of the existing Collection and add each to the instance
of the new LinkedHashMap. Since the iteration order of the LinkedHashMap is determined by the order of insertion, the iteration order of the
new LinkedHashMap must be the same as the interation order of the old Collection.
18-b -LinkedHashMap -The LinkedHashMap offers the option to remove the least recently used element when a new element is added. The
removeEldestEntry method is invoked by the put and putAll methods. If removeEldestEntry returns true, then the least recently used element is
removed. A typical implementation of the method returns true if the size of the LinkedHashMap exceeds the desired maximum.
