public class Yikes {
public static void go(Long n) {System.out.println("Long ");}
public static void go(Short n) {System.out.println("Short ");}
public static void go(int n) {System.out.println("int ");}
public static void main(String [] args) {
short y = 6;
long z = 7;
go(y);
go(z);
}
}
What is the result?

A. int Long
B. Short Long
C. Compilation fails.
D. An exception is thrown at run time.

13. Given:
1. class Convert {
2. public static void main(String[] args) {
3. Long xL = new Long(456L);
4. long x1 = Long.valueOf("123");
5. Long x2 = Long.valueOf("123");
6. long x3 = xL.longValue();
7. Long x4 = xL.longValue();
8. Long x5 = Long.parseLong("456");
9. long x6 = Long.parseLong("123");
10. }
11. }
Which will compile using Java 5, but will NOT compile using Java 1.4? (Choose all that apply.)
A. Line 4.
B. Line 5.
C. Line 6.
D. Line 7.
E. Line 8.
F. Line 9.
Answer:
-> A, D, and E are correct. Because of the methods’ return types, these method calls required
autoboxing to compile.
-> B, C, and F are incorrect based on the above.

Which about the three java.lang classes String, StringBuilder, and StringBuffer are true? (Choose all that apply.)
A. All three classes have a length() method.
B. Objects of type StringBuffer are thread-safe.
C. All three classes have overloaded append() methods.
D. The "+" is an overloaded operator for all three classes.
E. According to the API, StringBuffer will be faster than StringBuilder under most
implementations.
F. The value of an instance of any of these three types can be modified through various
methods in the API.

Answer:
-> A and B are correct.
-> C is incorrect because String does not have an "append" method. D is incorrect because only String objects can be operated on using the overloaded "+" operator. E is backwards, StringBuilder is typically faster because it's not thread-safe. F is incorrect because String objects are immutable. A String reference can be altered to refer to a different String object, but the objects themselves are immutable.

 A JavaBeans component has the following field:
11. private boolean enabled;
Which two pairs of method declarations follow the JavaBeans standard for accessing this field? (Choose two.)
A. public void setEnabled( boolean enabled )
public boolean getEnabled()
B. public void setEnabled( boolean enabled )
public void isEnabled()
C. public void setEnabled( boolean enabled )
public boolean isEnabled()
D. public boolean setEnabled( boolean enabled )
public boolean getEnabled()                         
Answer: A, C

Given classes defined in two different files:
1. package util;
2. public class BitUtils {
3. public static void process(byte[]) { /* more code here */ }
4. }
1. package app;
2. public class SomeApp {
3. public static void main(String[] args) {
4. byte[] bytes = new byte[256];
5. // insert code here
6. }
7. }
What is required at line 5 in class SomeApp to use the process method of BitUtils?
A. process(bytes);
B. BitUtils.process(bytes);
C. util.BitUtils.process(bytes);
D. SomeApp cannot use methods in BitUtils.
E. import util.BitUtils.*; process(bytes);
Answer: C

16. this.x = x;
17. this.y = y;
18. }
19. }

A. public class Circle implements Shape {
private int radius;
}
B. public abstract class Circle extends Shape {
private int radius;
}
C. public class Circle extends Shape {
private int radius;
public void draw();
}
D. public abstract class Circle implements Shape {
private int radius;
public void draw();
}
E. public class Circle extends Shape {
private int radius;
public void draw() {/* code here */}
F. public abstract class Circle implements Shape {
private int radius;
public void draw() { /* code here */ }
Answer: B, E
