//not compiled n for this u hav to import java.awt.graphics
e) public static boolean main( String args[] );
// works but must return Boolean value…

7. Represent the number 6 as a hexadecimal literal. ANS: 06
8. Which of the following statements assigns “Hello Java” to the String variable s?

9. An integer, x has a binary value (using 1 byte) of 10011100. What is the binary value
of z after these statements:
int y = 1 >> performs signed shift while >>> performs an unsigned shift. //correct
b) >>> performs a signed shift while >> performs an unsigned shift.
c) << performs a signed shift while <<< performs an insigned shift.
d) <<< performs a signed shift while << performs an unsigned shift.
11. The statement …
String s = “Hello” + “Java”;
yields the same value for s as …
String s = “Hello”;
String s2= “Java”;
s.concat( s2 ); //it will not store thts why It displays
Only hello ,if we store in another var then displat all.
True
False //correct…
12. If you compile and execute an application with the following code in its main()
method:
String s = new String( “Computer” );
if( s == “Computer” )
System.out.println( “Equal A” );
if( s.equals( “Computer” ) )
System.out.println( “Equal B” );
a) It will not compile because the String class does not support the = = operator.
b) It will compile and run, but nothing is printed.
c) “Equal A” is the only thing that is printed.
d) “Equal B” is the only thing that is printed. //correct
e) Both “Equal A” and “Equal B” are printed.
13. Consider the two statements:
1. boolean passingScore = false && grade == 70;
2. boolean passingScore = false & grade == 70;

grade == 70
is evaluated:
a) in both 1 and 2
b) in neither 1 nor 2 //correct (&& not defined for
Boolean and integer)
c) in 1 but not 2
d) in 2 but not 1
e) invalid because false should be FALSE

switchCoords( x, y );
System.out.print( ” ( ” + x + “, ” + y + ” ) ” );
}
