Q1. Given the string "strawberries" saved in a variable called fruit, what would
fruit.substring(2, 5) return?

rawb
raw
awb
traw

Reasoning: The substring method is accepting two arguments.

The first argument being the index to start(includes that char at 2)

and the second the index of the string to end the substring(excludes the char at 5).
Strings in Java are like arrays of chars.
Therefore, the method will return "raw" as those are the chars in indexes 2,3, and 4.
You can also take the ending index and subtract the beginning index from it, to
determine how many chars will be included in the substring (5-2=3).

Q2. How can you achieve runtime polymorphism in Java?

method overloading
method overrunning
method overriding
method calling

Q3. Given the following definitions, which of these expression will NOT evaluate to
true?

boolean b1 = true, b2 = false; int i1 = 1, i2 = 2;

(i1 | i2) == 3

i2 && b1

b1 || !b2

(i1 ^ i2) < 4

Reasoning: i2 && b1 is not allowed between int and boolean.

Q4. What is the output of this code?

1: class Main {
2: public static void main (String[] args) {
3: int array[] = {1, 2, 3, 4};
4: for (int i = 0; i < array.size(); i++) {
5: System.out.print(array[i]);
6: }
7: }
8: }

It will not compile because of line 4.

It will not compile because of line 3.
123
1234

Reasoning: array.size() is invalid, to get size or length of array array.length can be used.

Q5. Which of the following can replace the CODE SNIPPET to make the code below
print "Hello World"?

interface Interface1 {
static void print() {
System.out.print("Hello");
}
}

interface Interface2 {
static void print() {
System.out.print("World!");
}
}

super1.print(); super2.print();

this.print();

super.print();

Interface1.print(); Interface2.print();

Reference

Q6. What does the following code print?

String str = "abcde";

str.trim();
str.toUpperCase();
str.substring(3, 4);
System.out.println(str);

CD
CDE
D
"abcde"

Reasoning: You should assign the result of trim back to the String variable. Otherwise, it
is not going to work, because strings in Java are immutable.

Q7. What is the result of this code?

class Main {
public static void main (String[] args){
System.out.println(print(1));
}
static Exception print(int i){
if (i>0) {
return new Exception();
} else {
throw new RuntimeException();
}
}
}

It will show a stack trace with a runtime exception.

"java.lang.Exception"
It will run and throw an exception.
It will not compile.

Q8. Which class can compile given these declarations?

interface One {
default void method() {
System.out.println("One");

https://github.com/Ebazhanov/linkedin-skill-assessments-quizzes/blob/main/java/java-quiz.md 3/50

}
}

interface Two {
default void method () {
System.out.println("One");
}
}

class Three implements One, Two {

public void method() {
super.One.method();
}
}

class Three implements One, Two {

public void method() {
One.method();
}
}

class Three implements One, Two {

}

class Three implements One, Two {

public void method() {
One.super.method();
}
}

Q9. What is the output of this code?

class Main {
public static void main (String[] args) {
List list = new ArrayList();
list.add("hello");
list.add(2);

System.out.print(list.get(0) instanceof Object);

System.out.print(list.get(1) instanceof Integer);
}
}

The code does not compile.

Q10. Given the following two classes, what will be the output of the Main class?

package mypackage;
public class Math {
public static int abs(int num){
return num < 0 ? -num : num;
}
}
package mypackage.elementary;
public class Math {
public static int abs (int num) {
return -num;
}
}

import mypackage.Math;
import mypackage.elementary.*;

class Main {
public static void main (String args[]){
System.out.println(Math.abs(123));
}
}

Lines 1 and 2 generate compiler errors due to class name conflicts.

"-123"
It will throw an exception on line 5.
"123"

Explanation: The answer is "123". The abs() method evaluates to the one inside
mypackage.Math class, because the import statements of the form:

import packageName.subPackage.*

is Type-Import-on-Demand Declarations, which never causes any other declaration to

be shadowed.

Q11. What is the result of this code?

1: class MainClass {
2: final String message() {
3: return "Hello!";
4: }
5: }

6: class Main extends MainClass {

7: public static void main(String[] args) {
8: System.out.println(message());
9: }

10: String message() {

11: return "World!";
12: }
13: }

It will not compile because of line 10.

"Hello!"
It will not compile because of line 2.
"World!"

Explanation: Compilation error at line 10 because of final methods cannot be

overridden, and here message() is a final method, and also note that Non-static method
message() cannot be referenced from a static context.

Q12. Given this code, which command will output "2"?

class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println(args[2]);
}
}

java Main 1 2 "3 4" 5

java Main 1 "2" "2" 5

java Main.class 1 "2" 2 5

java Main 1 "2" "3 4" 5

Q13. What is the output of this code?

class Main {
public static void main(String[] args){
int a = 123451234512345;
System.out.println(a);
https://github.com/Ebazhanov/linkedin-skill-assessments-quizzes/blob/main/java/java-quiz.md 6/50

}
}

"123451234512345"
Nothing - this will not compile.
a negative integer value
"12345100000"

Reasoning: The int type in Java can be used to represent any whole number from
-2147483648 to 2147483647. Therefore, this code will not compile as the number
assigned to 'a' is larger than the int type can hold.

Q14. What is the output of this code?

class Main {
public static void main (String[] args) {
String message = "Hello world!";
String newMessage = message.substring(6, 12)
+ message.substring(12, 6);
System.out.println(newMessage);
}
}

The code does not compile.

A runtime exception is thrown.
"world!!world"
"world!world!"

Q15. How do you write a foreach loop that will iterate over
ArrayList<Pencil>pencilCase?

for (Pencil pencil : pencilCase) {}

for (pencilCase.next()) {}

for (Pencil pencil : pencilCase.iterator()) {}

for (pencil in pencilCase) {}

Q16. What does this code print?

System.out.print("apple".compareTo("banana"));

positive number
negative number

Q17. You have an ArrayList of names that you want to sort alphabetically. Which
approach would NOT work?

names.sort(Comparator.comparing(String::toString))

Collections.sort(names)

names.sort(List.DESCENDING)

names.stream().sorted((s1, s2) ->

s1.compareTo(s2)).collect(Collectors.toList())

Q18. By implementing encapsulation, you cannot directly access the class's _

properties unless you are writing code inside the class itself.

private
protected
no-modifier
public

Q19. Which is the most up-to-date way to instantiate the current date?

new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd").format(new Date())

new Date(System.currentTimeMillis())

LocalDate.now()

Calendar.getInstance().getTime()

Explanation: LocalDate is the newest class added in java 8

Q20. Fill in the blank to create a piece of code that will tell whether int0 is divisible
by 5 :

boolean isDivisibleBy5 = _____

int0 / 5 ? true: false

int0 % 5 == 0

int0 % 5 != 5

Math.isDivisible(int0, 5)

Q21. How many times will this code print "Hello World!"?

class Main {
public static void main(String[] args){
for (int i=0; i<10; i=i++){

i+=1;
System.out.println("Hello World!");
}
}
}

10 times
9 times
5 times
infinite number of times

Explanation: Observe the loop increment. It's not an increment, it's an

assignment(post).

Q22. The runtime system starts your program by calling which function first?

print
iterative
hello
main

Q23. What code would you use in Constructor A to call Constructor B?

public class Jedi {

/* Constructor A */
Jedi(String name, String species){}

/* Constructor B */
Jedi(String name, String species, boolean followsTheDarkSide){}
}

Jedi(name, species, false)

new Jedi(name, species, false)
this(name, species, false)
super(name, species, false)

Note: This code won't compile, possibly broken code sample.

}

public TheClass() {
x = 77;
}

private void setX(int x) {

this.x = x;
}

Q50. Which statements about abstract classes are true?

1. They can be instantiated.

2. They allow member variables and methods to be inherited by
subclasses.
3. They can contain constructors.

1, 2, and 3

Q51. Which keyword lets you call the constructor of a parent class?

parent
super
this
new

Q52. What is the result of this code?

1: int a = 1;
2: int b = 0;
3: int c = a/b;
4: System.out.println(c);

It will throw an ArithmeticException.

It will run and output 0.
It will not compile because of line 3.

It will run and output infinity.

Q53. Normally, to access a static member of a class such as Math.PI, you would need
to specify the class "Math". What would be the best way to allow you to use simply
"PI" in your code?

Add a static import.

Declare local copies of the constant in your code.
This cannot be done. You must always qualify references to static members with the
class form which they came from.
Put the static members in an interface and inherit from that interface.

Q54. Which keyword lets you use an interface?

extends
implements
inherits
import

Q55. Why are ArrayLists better than arrays?

You don't have to decide the size of an ArrayList when you first make it.
You can put more items into an ArrayList than into an array.
ArrayLists can hold more kinds of objects than arrays.
You don't have to decide the type of an ArrayList when you first make it.

Q56. Declare a variable that holds the first four digits of Π

int pi = 3.141;
decimal pi = 3.141;
double pi = 3.141;
float pi = 3.141;

Reasoning:

public class TestReal {

public static void main (String[] argv)
{
double pi = 3.14159265; //accuracy up to 15 digits
float pi2 = 3.141F; //accuracy up to 6-7 digits

System.out.println ("Pi=" + pi);

System.out.println ("Pi2=" + pi2);
}
}

9/6/23, 9:55 PM linkedin-skill-assessments-quizzes/java/java-quiz.md at main · Ebazhanov/linkedin-skill-assessments-quizzes · GitHub

The default Java type which Java will be using for a float variable will
be double.
So, even if you declare any variable as float, what the compiler has to
actually do is to assign a double value to a float variable,
which is not possible. So, to tell the compiler to treat this value as a
float, that 'F' is used.

Q125. Which expression is a functional equivalent?

List<Integer> numbers = List.of(1,2,3,4);

int total = 0;

for (Integer x : numbers) {

if (x % 2 == 0)
total += x * x;
}

int total = numbers.stream()

.transform(x -> x * x)
.filter(x -> x % 2 == 0)
.sum ();

int total = numbers.stream()

.filter(x -> x % 2 == 0)
.collect(Collectors.toInt());

int total = numbers.stream()

.mapToInt (x -> {if (x % 2 == 0) return x * x;})
.sum();

int total = numbers.stream()

.filter(x -> x % 2 == 0)

.mapToInt(x -> x * x)
.sum();

Explanation: The given code in the question will give you the output 20 as total:

numbers // Input `List<Integer>` > [1, 2, 3, 4]

.stream() // Converts input into `Stream<Integer>`
.filter(x -> x % 2 == 0) // Filter even numbers and return `Stream<I
.mapToInt(x -> x * x) // Square the number, converts `Integer` to
.sum() // Returns the sum as `int` > 20

Q127. The compiler is complaining about this assignment of the variable pickle to the
variable jar. How woulld you fix this?

double pickle = 2;
int jar = pickle;

Use the method toInt() to convert pickle before assigning it to jar.

Cast pickle to an int before assigning it to jar.
Make pickle into a double by adding + ".0"
Use the new keyword to create a new Integer from pickle before assigning it to jar.

Q140. Which data structure would you choose to associate the amount of rainfall
with each month?

Vector

Explanation:

from @yktsang01 in #3915 thread

https://github.com/Ebazhanov/linkedin-skill-assessments-quizzes/blob/main/java/java-quiz.md 44/50
9/6/23, 9:55 PM linkedin-skill-assessments-quizzes/java/java-quiz.md at main · Ebazhanov/linkedin-skill-assessments-quizzes · GitHub

Map because map is a key/value pair without creating new classes/objects. So can store
the rainfall per month like Map<java.time.Month, Double> . The other options will most
likely need some new class to be meaningful:

public class Rainfall {

private java.time.Month month;
private double rainfall;
}
Vector<Rainfall>
LinkedList<Rainfall>
Queue<Rainfall>
