a) -128 to 127
b) -32768 to 32767
c) -2147483648 to 2147483647
d) None of the mentioned

Answer:b
Explanation:Short occupies 16 bits in memory. Its range is from -32768 to 32767.

2. What is the range of data type byte in Java?

a) -128 to 127
b) -32768 to 32767
c) -2147483648 to 2147483647
d) None of the mentioned

Answer:a
Explanation:Byte occupies 8 bits in memory. Its range is from -128 to 127.

3. Which of the following are legal lines of Java code?

1. int w = (int)888.8;
2. byte x = (byte)100L;
3. long y = (byte)100;
4. byte z = (byte)100L;
a) 1 and 2
b) 2 and 3
c) 3 and 4
d) All statements are correct.

Answer: d
Explanation:Statements (1), (2), (3), and (4) are correct. (1) is correct because when a
floating-point number (a double in this case) is cast to an int, it simply loses the digits after
the decimal.(2) and (4) are correct because a long can be cast into a byte. If the long is over
127, it loses its most significant (leftmost) bits.(3) actually works, even though a cast is not
necessary, because a long can store a byte.

12. Which operator is used to invert all the digits in binary representation of a number?

a) ~ b) <<< c) >>>d) ^

Answer:a
Explanation: Unary not operator, ~, inverts all of the bits of its operand in binary
representation.

13. On applying Left shift operator, <<, on an integer bits are lost one they are shifted past
which position bit? a) 1 b) 32 c) 33 d) 31

Answer: d Explanation: The left shift operator shifts all of the bite in a value to the left
specified number of times. For each shift left, the high order bit is shifted out and lost, zero is
brought in from right. When a left shift is applied to an integer operand, bits are lost once
they are shifted past the bit position 31.

14. Which right shift operator preserves the sign of the value?

a) << b) >>c) <<= d) >>=

Answer: b
Explanation: None.

15. Which of these statements are incorrect?

a) The left shift operator, <<, shifts all of the bite in a value to the left specified number of
times. b) The right shift operator, >>, shifts all of the bite in a value to the right specified
number of times.
c) The left shift operator can be used as an alternative to multiplying by 2.
d) The right shift operator automatically fills the higher order bits with 0.

Answer: d
Explanation: The right shift operator automatically fills the higher order bit with its previous
contents each time a shift occurs. This also preserves the sign of the value.

Answer:b
Explanation: Function overloading is a process of defining more than one method in a class
with same name differentiated by function signature i:e return type or parameters type and
number. Example int volume(int length, int width) & int volume(int length , int width , int
height) can be used to calculate volume.

13. Which of the following is a method having same name as that of its class?
a) finalize
b) delete
c) class
d) constructor

Answer: d
Explanation: A constructor is a method that initializes an object immediately upon creation. It
has the same name as that of class in which it resides.

14. Which method can be defined only once in a program?

a) main method
b) finalize method
c) static method
d) private method

Answer: a
Explanation: main() method can be defined only once in a program. Program execution
begins from the main() method by javas run time system.

Explanation: Constructors does not have any return type, not even void.

22. Which keyword is used by method to refer to the object that invoked it?
a) import
b) catch
c) abstract
d) this

Answer: d
Explanation: this keyword can be used inside any method to refer to the current object. this is
always a reference to the object on which the method was invoked.

23. Which of the following is a method having same name as that of its class?
a) finalize
b) delete
c) class
d) constructor

Answer: d
Explanation: A constructor is a method that initializes an object immediately upon creation. It
has the same name as that of class in which it resides.

24. Which operator is used by Java run time implementations to free the memory of an object
when it is no longer needed?
a) delete
b) free
c) new
d) None of the mentioned

Answer: d
Explanation: Java handles deallocation of memory automatically, we do not need to explicitly
delete an element. Garbage collection only occurs during execution of the program. When no
references to the object exist, that object is assumed to be no longer needed, and the memory
occupied by the object can be reclaimed.

25. Which function is used to perform some action when the object is to be destroyed?
a) finalize()
b) delete()
c) main()
d) None of the mentioned

41. Which of these class is superclass of every class in Java?

a) String class
b) Object class
c) Abstract class
d) ArrayList class

Answer: b
Explanation: Object class is superclass of every class in Java.

42. Which of these method of Object class can clone an object?

a) Objectcopy()

Question Prepared By : Shekhar (IT Dept ,JECRC University Jaipur)

Java Questions & Answers JECRC UNIVERSITY JAIPUR
b) copy()
c) Object clone()
d) clone()

Answer: c
Explanation: None.

43. Which of these method of Object class is used to obtain class of an object at run time?
a) get()
b) void getclass()
c) Class getclass()
d) None of the mentioned

Answer: c
Explanation: None.

44. Which of these keywords can be used to prevent inheritance of a class?

a) super
b) constant
c) Class
d) final

Answer: d
Explanation: Declaring a class final implicitly declares all of its methods final, and makes the
class inheritable.

45. Which of these keywords cannot be used for a class which has been declared final?
a) abstract
b) extends
c) abstract and extends
d) None of the mentioned

Answer: a
Explanation: A abstract class is incomplete by itself and relies upon its subclasses to provide
complete implementation. If we declare a class final then no class can inherit that class, an
abstract class needs its subclasses hence both final and abstract cannot be used for a same
class.

46. Which of these class relies upon its subclasses for complete implementation of its
methods?
a) Object class
