Java Questions & Answers – Control Statements – 1
Explanation: var2 is initialised to 1. The conditionalstatement returns false and the else part gets executed.
$ javac selection_statements.java
$ java selection_statements
c) 14
Explanation: Using comma operator, we can include more than one statement in the initialization and iteration portion of the for loop. Therefore
both ++i and j = i + 1 is executed i gets the value – 0,1,2,3,4 & j gets the values -0,1,2,3,4,5.
$ javac comma_operator.java
$ java comma_operator
a) 1 3 5 7
b) 2 4 6 8
c) 1 3 5 7 9
d) 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Explanation: Whenever y is divisible by x remainder body of loop is skipped by continue statement, therefore if condition y == 8 is never true as
when y is 8, remainder body of loop is skipped by continue statements of first if. Control comes to print statement only in cases when y is odd.
$ javac jump_statments.java
$ java jump_statments
1 3 5 7 9
d) compile time error
Explanation: Every final variable is compile time constant.
a) 5 10
b) 10 5
c) 5
d) 10
Explanation: b >> 1 in if returns 5 which is equal to a i:e 5, therefore body of if is executed and block second is exited. Control goes to end of
the block second executing the last print statement, printing 10.
10
Explanation: Since the first if condition is not met, control would not go inside ifstatement and hence only statement after the entire if block will
be executed.
2. The while loop repeats a set of code while the condition is not met?
Explanation: While loop repeats a set of code only until the condition is met.
3. What is true about a break?
a) Break stops the execution of entire program
b) Break halts the execution and forces the control out of the loop
c) Break forces the control out of the loop and starts the execution of next iteration
d) Break halts the execution of the loop for certain time frame
Explanation:Break halts the execution and forces the control out of the loop.
4. What is true about do statement?
a) do statement executes the code of a loop at least once
b) do statement does not get execute if condition is not matched in the first iteration
c) do statement checks the condition at the beginning of the loop
d) do statement executes the code more than once always
Explanation: Do statement checks the condition at the end of the loop. Hence, code gets executed at least once.
5. Which of the following is used with the switch statement?
a) Continue
b) Exit
c) break
d) do
Explanation:Break is used with a switch statement to shift control out ofswitch.
a) int and float

b) if-else
c) switch
d) do-while
Explanation: do-while is an iteration statement. Others are decision making statements.
8. Which of the following is not a valid jump statement?
a) break
b) goto
Explanation: break, continue and return transfer control to another part of the program and returns back to caller after execution. However,
goto is marked as not used in Java.
9. From where break statement causes an exit?
a) Only from innermost loop
b) Terminates a program
c) Only from innermost switch
d) From innermost loops or switches
Explanation: The break statement causes an exit from innermost loop or switch.
10. Which of the following is not a valid flow controlstatement?

Explanation:Composition occurs when child object gets killed if parent object gets killed. Aggregation is also known as strong Aggregation.
9. What is it called where object has its own lifecycle and child object cannot belong to another parent object?
a) Aggregation
b) Composition
d) Association
Explanation: Aggregation occurs when objects have their own life cycle and child object can associate with only one parent object.
10. Method overriding is combination of inheritance and polymorphism?
Explanation:In order for method overriding, method with same signature in both superclass and subclass is required with same signature. That
satisfies both concepts inheritance and polymorphism.

Explanation: The Java source file contains a header that declares the type of class or interface, its visibility with respect to other classes, its name
and any superclass it may extend, or interface it implements.
10. What is use of interpreter?
a) They convert bytecode to machine language code
b) They read high level code and execute them
c) They are intermediated between JIT and JVM
d) It is a synonym for JIT

a) finalize
b) delete
d) constructor
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.
4. 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
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.

a) Private constructor ensures only one instance of a class exist at any point of time
b) Private constructor ensures multiple instances of a class exist at any point of time
c) Private constructor eases the instantiation of a class
d) Private constructor allows creating objects in other classes
Explanation: Object of private constructor can only be created within class. Private constructor is used in singleton pattern.

3. What is false about constructor?
a) Constructors cannot be synchronized in Java
b) Java does not provide default copy constructor
c) Constructor can be overloaded
d) “this” and “super” can be used in a constructor
Explanation: Default, parameterised constructors can be defined.
4. What is true about Class.getInstance()?
a) Class.getInstance calls the constructor
b) Class.getInstance is same as new operator
c) Class.getInstance needs to have matching constructor
d) Class.getInstance creates object if class does not have any constructor
Explanation:Class class provides list of methods for use like getInstance().
5. What is true about constructor?
a) It can contain return type
b) It can take any number of parameters
c) It can have any non access modifiers
d) Constructor cannot throw an exception
Explanation:Constructor returns a new object with variables defined as in the class. Instance variables are newly created and only one copy of

7. What is true about protected constructor?
a) Protected constructor can be called directly
b) Protected constructor can only be called using super()
c) Protected constructor can be used outside package
d) protected constructor can be instantiated even if child is in a different package
Explanation: Protected access modifier means that constructor can be accessed by child classes of the parent class and classes in the same
package.
8. What is not the use of “this” keyword in Java?
a) Passing itself to another method
b) Calling another constructor in constructor chaining
c) Referring to the instance variable when local variable has the same name
d) Passing itself to method of the same class
Explanation: “this” is an important keyword in java. It helps to distinguish between local variable and variables passed in the method as
parameters.
9. What would be the behaviour if one parameterized constructor is explicitly defined?
b) Compilation succeeds
c) Runtime error
d) Compilation succeeds but at the time of creating object using default constructor, it throws compilation error
Explanation: The class compiles successfully. But the object creation of that class gives a compilation error.
10. What would be behaviour if the constructor has a return type?
b) Runtime error
c) Compilation and runs successfully
d) Only String return type is allowed
Explanation: The constructor cannot have a return type. It should create and return new object. Hence it would give compilation error.
1. Which of the following has the highest memory requirement?

Explanation:JVM is the super set which contains heap, stack, objects, pointers, etc.
2. Where is a new object allocated memory?
a) Young space
b) Old space
c) Young or Old space depending on space availability
d) JVM
Explanation: A new object is always created in young space. Once young space is full, a special young collection is run where objects which
have lived long enough are moved to old space and memory is freed up in young space for new objects.
3. Which of the following is a garbage collection technique?
a) Cleanup model
b) Mark and sweep model
c) Space management model
d) Sweep model
Explanation: A mark and sweep garbage collection consists of two phases, the mark phase and the sweep phase. I mark phase all the objects
reachable by java threads, native handles and other root sources are marked alive and others are garbage. In sweep phase, the heap is
traversed to find gaps between live objects and the gaps are marked free list used for allocating memory to new objects.
4. What is -Xms and -Xmx while starting jvm?
a) Initial; Maximum memory
b) Maximum; Initial memory
c) Maximum memory
d) Initial memory
Explanation:JVM will be started with Xms amount of memory and will be able to use a maximum of Xmx amount of memory. java -

8. Which of the below is not a Java Profiler?
a) JVM
b) JConsole
c) JProfiler
d) Eclipse Profiler
Explanation: Memory leak is like holding a strong reference to an object although it would never be needed anymore. Objects that are

$ javac Overload_methods.java
$ java Overload_methods
4 6.4
Explanation: Variables a & b are passed by value, copy of their values are made on formal parameters of function meth() that is i & j. Therefore
changes done on i & j are not reflected back on original arguments. a & b remain 10 & 20 respectively.
10 20
a) 10 20
b) 20 10
c) 20 40
d) 40 20
Explanation:Class objects are always passed by reference, therefore changes done are reflected back on original arguments. obj.meth(obj)
sends object obj as parameter whose variables a & b are multiplied and divided by 2 respectively by meth() function of class test. a & b
becomes 20 & 10 respectively.

1. Which of these access specifiers must be used for main() method?
Explanation: main() method must be specified public as it called by Java run time system, outside of the program. If no access specifier is used
then by default member is public within its own package & cannot be accessed by Java run time system.
2. Which of these is used to access a member of class before object of that class is created?
c) static
3. Which of these is used as a default for a member of a class if no access specifier is used for it?
c) public, within its own package
d) protected
Explanation: When we pass an argument by call-by-value a copy of argument is made into the formal parameter of the subroutine and changes
made on parameters ofsubroutine have no effect on original argument, they remain the same.

Explanation: Private variables are accessible only within the class.
4. How can a protected modifier be accessed?
a) accessible only within the class
b) accessible only within package
c) accessible within package and outside the package but through inheritance only
d) accessible by all
Explanation: The protected access modifier is accessible within package and outside the package but only through inheritance. The protected
access modifier can be used with data member, method and constructor. It cannot be applied in the class.
5. What happens if constructor of class A is made private?
a) Any class can instantiate objects of class A
b) Objects of class A can be instantiated only within the class where it is declared
c) Inherited class can instantiate objects of class A
d) classes within the same package as class A can instantiate objects of class A
Explanation:If we make any class constructor private, we cannot create the instance of that class from outside the class.
6. All the variables of interface should be?
a) default and final
Java Questions & Answers – Access Control – 2
b) default and static
c) public, static and final
d) protect, static and final
Explanation: Variables of an interface are public, static and final by default because the interfaces cannot be instantiated, final ensures the value
assigned cannot be changed with the implementing class and public for it to be accessible by all the implementing classes.
7. What is true of final class?
a) Final class cause compilation failure
b) Final class cannot be instantiated
c) Final class cause runtime failure
d) Final class cannot be inherited
Explanation: Final class cannot be inherited. This helps when we do not want classes to provide extension to these classes.

a) 1, 10
b) 10, 10
c) 10, 1
d) 1, 1
Explanation: Only one copy ofstatic variables are created when a class is loaded. Each object instantiated has its own copy of instance
variables.
9. Can a class be declared with a protected modifier.
Explanation: Protected class member (method or variable) is like package-private (default visibility), except that it also can be accessed from
subclasses. Since there is no such concept as ‘subpackage’ or ‘package-inheritance’ in Java, declaring class protected or package-private
would be the same thing.
10. Which is the modifier when there is none mentioned explicitly?
a) protected
b) private
c) public
d) default
Explanation: Default is the access modifier when none is defined explicitly. It means the member (method or variable) can be accessed within the
same package.
1. Arrays in Java are implemented as?
2. Which of these keywords is used to prevent content of a variable from being modified?
a) final
b) last
c) constant
d) static
Explanation: A variable can be declared final, doing so prevents its content from being modified. Final variables must be initialized when it is
declared.
3. Which of these cannot be declared static?

4. Which of the following statements are incorrect?
a) static methods can call other static methods only
b) static methods must only access static data
c) static methods can not refer to this or super in any way
d) when object of class is declared, each object contains its own copy ofstatic variables

Java Questions & Answers – isAlive(), Join() & Thread Synchronization
d) It’s a method that allow too many threads to access any information require
Explanation: Although we have not created any object of thread class still we can make a thread pointing to main method, we can refer it by
using this.
Thread[My Thread,5,main].
c) Exception
Explanation: join() method of Thread class waits for thread being called to finish or terminate, but here we have no condition which can
terminate the thread, hence code ‘t.join()’ leads to runtime error and nothing will be printed on the screen.
