B: An object can take many forms via casting. C: An object can hold data, referred to as attributes. D: An object can perform actions, via methods.

A: Objects are grouped as procedures, separate from the data they act on.

42. _____________ is the technique of structuring programming data as a unit consisting of attributes, with actions defined on the unit. A: Encapsulation B: Object orientation C: Platform Independence D: Polymorphism

B: Object orientation Polymorphism is the ability of an object to take on many forms. Polymorphism allows us to perform a single action in different ways. Polymorphism allows you to define one interface and have multiple implementations. In Java polymorphism is mainly divided into two types: Compile time Polymorphism > static (This type of polymorphism is achieved by function (method) overloading or operator overloading.) Runtime Polymorphism Operator Overloading: Java also provide option to overload operators. For example, we can make the operator ('+') for string class to concatenate two strings. We know that this is the addition operator whose task is to add two operands. So a single operator '+' when placed between integer operands, adds them and when placed between string operands, concatenates them. In java, Only "+" operator can be overloaded: To add integers To concatenate strings

30. Which of the following is a true statement? A: The java command compiles a .java file into a .class file. B: The javac command compiles a .java file into a .class file. C: The java command compiles a .class file into a .java file. D: The javac command compiles a .class file into a .java file.

B: The javac command compiles a .java file into a .class file.

11. Which statement about import statements is true ? A: The class will not compile if it contains unused import statements. B: Unused import statements can be removed from the class without causing a class to become unable to be compiled. C: The class will not compile if a duplicate import statement is not present. D: If a class contains an import statement for a class used in the program that cannot be found, it can still compile.

B: Unused import statements can be removed from the class without causing a class to become unable to be compiled.

37. Given the file Magnet.java below, which of the marked lines can you independently insert the line public String color; into and still have the code compile? // line a1 public class Magnet { // line a2 public void attach() { // line a3 } // line a4 } A: a1 and a3 B: a2 and a4 C: a2, a3, and a4 D: a1, a2, a3, and a4

B: a2 and a4 public String color; Cannot be inserted at a1 - variables are not allowed outside the class declaration. public String color; Cannot be inserted at a3 - local variables defined within methods cannot have access modifiers such as public. Instance variables can be defined anywhere in the class outside of a method.

B: The code does not compile due to line 7. C: 31 D: 61

C: 31 While using an instance reference to access a static variable is not recommended, it does not prevent the variable from being read.
