 9. What does a class need to define, when used as a data type in a Java project?
Ans. A class needs to defiue data variables to store the data valuces and functions or methods that
define the process to be performed on the objects of the class. These data variables are called
member variables and the methods are called member functions or member methods.
10. How does n class implement data nbstraction and encapsulation features of 00P?
Ans. A class defines the data variables (cnlled member variablcs) and the methods/functions (called
member functions) common to a set of objects of the class. In other words we can say that these
members variables and functions are encapsulated into a single unit called class. This encapsulation
leads to abstraction (hiding). Due to this encapsulation, users know how to access the encapsulated
code no matter what the details
implementation are.
11. Is it possible that an object has more than one abstractions? Explain with examples.
Ans. Yes, it is possible for an object to have more than one abstraction. This can be understood from an
example of an employee. The attributes and methods for the personal details of an employee can
be wrapped up in a class named "Personal" and the attributes and methods related to details of
the employees salary can be wrapped up in another class named "PaySlip". Thus, the same object
can possess multiple abstractions by encapsulating relative attributes and methods in more than
one classes. Similarly, an account holder can have the personal details in one class say-AccHolder
and the details of the account in another class
say-AccBalance.
12. How to create an object in Java?
Ans. An object is created from a class. In Java, the new key word is used to create new object.
For example: progl objl =
new prog1()
Where progl is the class, objl is the newly created object's name and prog1) is the con_tructor
of the class.
(13 What declarations are required for every Java application?
Ans. A class and the main() method declarations.

Why an object is called an instance of a class? [2010]

Ans. A class encapsulates
the data members and member functions. It is used to
create an
object. A
class is an object factory. Hence, an object is called an instance of a class.
S.) Why is a class known as composite data type?
Ans Class is called a composite data type because it binds up
types together as a single data type.
(encapsulates) one or more
primitive
e.g, class Abc {
int
float y

16. What does the following mean?

Employee stalf=new Employee);
Ans. The statement
Employee staff new Employee( ) creates
=
an object named staff of the class
Employee. also allocates memory to the object.
It
17. How is a class type variable declared?
Ans. Declaration or creation of
class type variable
8. What is this
(object).
Ans. The class

type variable is called object of the class.
