Ans. The logical operators are used to combine simple relational statements into more complex
expressions.

13. State the difference between while and do while loop.

Ans. The while loop is an entry controlled loop, whereas the do-while loop is an exit controlled loop.

Computer Applications – X (ICSE Course) Answers 24

 14. State the difference between entry controlled loop and exit controlled loop.
Ans.
Difference between entry controlled and exit controlled loop
Entry Control Loop Exit Control Loop
The test expression or condition is checked The test expression or condition is checked
before entering the loop. after entering the loop.
It the test expression evaluates to false, the Even if the test expression evaluates to false,
loop doesn’t get executed. the loop gets executed atleast once.

15. Give the general syntax of a while-loop. How do you create infinite loops using a while-loop
structure?
Ans. The syntax of a while loop is,
while (condition or test-expression)
{
bodyoftheloop;
}
One of the method of creating an infinite loop is to write ‘true’ in the test-expression of the
loop.
while(true)
System.out.println(“Infinite”);
16. Give the general syntax of a do-while loop. How do you create infinite loops using do-while
loop structure?
Ans. The syntax of the dowhile loop is:
do
{
statement;
}while (condition);
Infinite loop using do-while loop:
do
{
System.out.println(“Infinite”);
}while(true);
17. Compare loops according to its usage.
Ans. Generally the for-loop is used when the number of iterations is known. The while loop is
generally used when the number of iterations is not known. The do-while loop is generally used
when it is necessary to execute the loop at least once.

 18. What are Nested-loops? Give an example of a nested for-loop to show its functionality.
Ans. A loop within a loop is called a nested loop.
Example of a nested loop is:
public class Loops
{
static void Nested()
{
int x , y;
for(x=1;x<=3;x++)
{
for(y=1; y<=3 ; y++)
{
System.out.println(x+” “+y);
}
}
}
}
Output:
1 1
1 2
1 3
2 1
2 2
2 3
3 1
3 2
3 3
Here x starts from 1 and then enters the inner loop where y too, starts from 1. That is why
we get 1 and 1 as the first result. As told earlier the inner loop should finish its iteration first.
Therefore y continues iteration till it reaches 3, in the meanwhile x continues to be at 1. That is
why the next two outputs are 1 and 2 & 1 and 3. After it comes out of the inner loop the value
of x increments by 1. Thus x is 2 and y starts back from 1 again and it reaches 3 while x continues
to be 2. Hence the next result is 2 & 1, 2 & 2 and 2 & 3. Then x reaches 3 and y starts from 1,
hence we get the result 3 & 1, 3 & 2 and 3 & 3. Since x is exhausted i.e. it has already iterated
for 3 times, the control comes out of it and the program ends.
19. Name two jump statements and their use.
Ans. Jump statements in Java:
break- The break statement causes an immediate exit from the do-while, for, switch or while
statement in which it appears.
continue- The continue statement is used with the loop instructions do-while, for, and while.
It transfers control to the place in the program where the next iteration of the loop in which it
appears, begins.

Computer Applications – X (ICSE Course) Answers 26

 20. What is the difference between break and continue statements when they occur in a loop?
Ans. The break statement is used to exit from a loop. The continue statement is used skip the
remaining statements in a loop and continue with the next iteration.
21. State one similarity and one difference between while and for loop.
Ans. Similarity: Both while and for loop is used as entry controlled loop.
Difference: The for loop may have initialisation, test expression and updation, written before
the loop. The while loop have the initialisation always before the loop and updation in the body
of the loop.
22. Analyze the following program segment and determine how many times the body of loop will
be executed (show the working).
Ans. The loop executes as long as the given condition is true.
23. What is an exception?
Ans. An exception is a run-time error that occurs in a program.
24. Give the output and determine how many times the loop will execute:
x=1; y=1;
while(x<=y)
{
y = y/x;
System.out.println(y);
}
Ans. x=1; y=1;
x<=y -> the loop executes once.
y=y/x =1/1=1
x<=y -> the loop executes next time
The entire process will continue infinite number of times, with the output as 1 in different
lines.
25. Give the output of the following code fragment:

54. Write a program to input a number and check whether it is a Smith number or not. Smith
number is such a number, the sum of whose digits equals the sum of the digits of its prime
factors.
Smith number is a composite number in which the sum of its digits is equal to the sum of the
digits of all its prime factors.
For Example 378 is a Smith Number as the sum of the digits of 378 are : 3+7+8 = 18. The prime
factors of 378 are: 2, 3, 3, 3, 7 ( sum = 2+3+3+3+7 = 18).
Similarly 22 is a Smith Number as the sum of the digits are : 2+2=4. The prime factors of 22 are:
2 and 11 (Sum = 2+(1+1) = 4

Ans. a. Message
9. What among the following is not a component of a message?
a. An object identifier b. A method name
c. Arguments d. Data Members
Ans. d. Data Members
10. How many objects can you create from a class?
a. One b. Two
c. Three d. Any number
Ans. d. Any number

SECTION A
A. Answer the following questions.
1. Mention any two attributes required for class declaration.
Ans. i) The keyword ‘class’
ii) The class-name
2. What is a class in Java?
Ans. A class is a mechanism to implement encapsulation. Thus class encloses characteristics
represented by data members or variables and behaviour represented by member methods or
functions into a single unit. It acts as a blueprint or template for an object.
3. Why is a class called an object factory?
Ans. A class is called an object factory because it acts as a factory for a design or abstraction which
produces objects. Each object that is generated from the class will have the same design or
abstraction as represented by its data members and member functions.
4. Define Instance Variable. Give an example of the same.
Ans. The data members declared within a class are called instance variables. For example:
class Myclass
{
int a,b;
void getval(int x, int y)
{
a=x;

Computer Applications – X (ICSE Course) Answers 96

 b=y;
}
}
Here the variables ‘a’ and ‘b’ are instance variables of the class ‘Myclass’.
5. What does the following mean?
Employee stuff = new Employee( );
Ans. An object named ‘stuff’ is being created or memory is being allocated of ‘Employee’ type.
6. How do you declare objects? Show with the help of an example.
Ans. An object is declared using the following general example:
<class-name> <object name>=new <class-constructor>;
For example,
Example ob=new Example();
Here an object named ‘ob’ is being allocated in the memory of ‘Example’ type, which is being
initialised with the constructor ‘Example()’.
7. Write Java statement to create an object mp4 of class digital.
Ans. digital mp4=new digital();
8. What is the difference between an object and a class?
Ans. Difference between class and object:

Class Object
A class is a template from which objects An object is an instance of a class.
are created.
A class is a group of similar objects. Object is a real world entity such as pen,
laptop, mobile, chair etc.
A class is a logical entity. An object is a physical entity.

9. What is a variable? How do you initialize a variable?

Ans. Variable is a name given to a memory location in Java.
Initialisation of variables are done during declaration. For example,
int a=5,b=6;
10. What are data types? State its categories.
Ans. Java uses data types to identify data and dictates the method of handling it. It is categorised as
Fundamental data type and Composite data type.
11. Why is a class known as a composite data type?
Ans. A composite data type is one which is composed with various primitive data type. A class defined
with various primitive data types such as int, double etc. so it is known as a composite data type.

97 Class as the Basis of All Computation

 12. Write one difference between primitive data types and composite data types.
Ans.
Fundamental Data Type Composite Data Type
These are inbuilt data type provided by the These are data types created by the user using
Java Language. fundamental or composite data type or both.
The size of it is fixed. The size of it depends upon the size of the
individual components of it.

13. What does a class encapsulate?

Ans. A class encapsulate characteristics represented by data members and behaviour represented by
member functions.
14. Why is a class considered to be an abstraction for a group of objects?
Ans. A class is an abstraction because it describes what is created, whereas an object is created itself.
A class acting as an abstraction or blueprint, multiple objects can be created from it.
15. What do you understand by data abstraction? Explain with an example.
Ans. Data Abstraction is the property by virtue of which only the essential details are displayed to the
user.
For example, when we ride a bike, we concentrate only driving rather than how the engine is
working according to the different switches, lever and steering.
16. Why is an object called an instance of a class?
Ans. An object is called an instance of class as every object created from a class get its own instances
of the variables defined in the class.

B. Consider the following code and answer the questions that follow:
class academic
{
int x,y;
void access()
{
int a,b;
academic student=new academic();
System.out.println(“Object Created”);

2. Methods are contained in class.
3. The function name and the parameter list together is known as function signature.
4. The access specifier, return type and the function signature together is known as prototype.
5. The arguments of the function given in function prototype are called formal arguments.
6. The arguments of the function given in statement that calls the function are called actual
arguments.
7. If a function does not return any value, the returning type in the function prototype will be void.

4. If a function contains several return statements, how many of them will be executed?
Ans. The first one.
5. Name the keyword that causes the control to transfer back to the method call.
Ans. return
6. What is the role of the keyword ‘void’ in declaring functions?
Ans. The void keyword ensures that a method do not return any value.
7. Classify functions depending upon the value it returns.
Ans. Computational function, Procedural functions and Manipulative functions
8. Differentiate between Formal Parameter and Actual Parameter.

Formal Parameters Actual Parameters

Parameter list in the function prototype. Parameter list in the function invocation.
They are only variables. They may be both variables or constants.

9. State the difference between function prototype and function signature.

Ans. Function prototype is the first line of the function definition that consist of return type function
name and the parameter list. Function signature on the other hand only specifies the parameter
list.

SECTION A
1. What is a constructor? Why is it needed in a program?
Ans. A constructor in Java is a block of code similar to a method that is called when an instance of an
object is created. A constructor is needed to initialise data members with legal initial values.
2. State the characteristics of a constructor.
Ans. The characteristics of a constructor are:
a. It has the same name as the class-name.
b. It does not have any return type.
c. It follows the usual rules of accessibility as other members of a class and therefore access
modifiers can be applied to it.
d. It gets called automatically, whenever an object is created.
3. How are constructors invoked?
Ans. Constructor function gets called (invoked) automatically whenever an object is created.
4. Why do we need a constructor as a class member?
Ans. A constructor is a special member method which will be called by the JVM implicitly for placing
user/programmer defined values instead of placing default values. Constructors are meant for
initializing the object.
5. State the difference between function and constructor.
Ans. Following are the difference between constructor and method.
a. Constructor is used to initialize an object whereas method is used to exhibits functionality
of an object.
b. Constructors are invoked implicitly whereas methods are invoked explicitly.
c. Constructor does not return any value where the method may/may not return a value.
d. In case constructor is not present, a default constructor is provided by java compiler. In the
case of a method, no default method is provided.
e. Constructor should be of the same name as that of class. Method name should not be of
the same name as that of class.
6. How are private constructors called?
Ans. Private constructors allows an object to be created only within the methods of the class where
it is private.
7. What are the different types of constructors available in Java?
Ans. Parameterised constructor and Non-parameterised constructor.

Computer Applications – X (ICSE Course) Answers 174

8. What is a default constructor?
Ans. When we do not explicitly define a constructor for a class, then java creates a default constructor
for the class. It is essentially a non-parameterized constructor, i.e. it doesn’t accept any
arguments. The default constructor’s job is to call the super class constructor and initialize all
instance variables.
9. Point out the difference between implicit and explicit default constructors.
Ans. Implicit default constructor is the default constructor created by java if the user do not create a
constructor. Explicit default constructor is a non-parameterised constructor defined by the user
to initialise data members with legal initial values.
10. What are temporary objects? How are they created, explain with the help of an example?
Ans. Temporary or anonymous objects or instances are the ones that live in the memory as long as it
is being used or referenced in an expression and after that it dies. Temporary objects are created
by explicit call to a constructor, preceded with the new command. For example,
public class temp
{
int a,b;
temp(int x, int y)
{
a=x;
b=y;
}
void show()
{
System.out.println(a+“,”+b);
}
static void test( )
{
new temp(1,2).show( );
}
}
Here the statement new temp(1,2) of the statement new temp(1,2).show(); creates an
anonymous temporary object and lives in the memory as long as show() of the statement new
temp(1,2).show(); is being executed. Upon completion of the execution of the show() function,
the temporary object gets wiped out of the memory.
11. What is constructor overloading? Illustrate it with the help of an example.
Ans. Just like method overloading, constructors also can be overloaded. Same constructor declared
with different parameters in the same class is known as constructor overloading. Compiler
differentiates which constructor is to be called depending upon the number of parameters and
their sequence of data types.
Java
public class Perimeter

175Constructors
 {
public Perimeter() // I
{
System.out.println(“From default”);
}
public Perimeter(int x) // II
{
System.out.println(“Circle perimeter: “ + 2*Math.PI*x);
}
public Perimeter(int x, int y) // III
{
System.out.println(“Rectangle perimeter: “ +2*(x+y));
}
public static void main(String args[])
{
Perimeter p1 = new Perimeter(); // I
Perimeter p2 = new Perimeter(10); // II
Perimeter p3 = new Perimeter(10, 20); // III
}
}
12. What is a destructor? Is destructor function necessary in Java? If no, explain why?
Ans. A destructor is a special method called automatically during the destruction of an object. In java
a destructor is not necessary because Java is a garbage collected language you cannot predict
when (or even if) an object will be destroyed. Hence there is no direct equivalent of a destructor.
13. What is the implicit return type of a constructor function?
Ans. The implicit return type is the class itself.
14. Enter any two variables through constructor with parameters and write a program to swap
and print the values.
Ans. class Swap
{
int a,b;
Swap(int x,int y)
{
a=x;
b=y;
}
void interchange()
{
int t=a;
a=b;
b=t;
}
}

 14. Write a Program in Java to input a number and check whether it is a Fascinating Number or
not.
Fascinating Numbers : Some numbers of 3 digits or more exhibit a very interesting property.
The
property is such that, when the number is multiplied by 2 and 3, and both these products
are concatenated with the original number, all digits from 1 to 9 are present exactly once,
regardless of the number of zeroes.
Let’s understand the concept of Fascinating Number through the following example:
Consider the number 192,
192 x 1 = 192
192 x 2 = 384
192 x 3 = 576
Concatenating the results : 192384576
It could be observed that ‘192384576’ consists of all digits from 1 to 9 exactly once. Hence, it
could be concluded that 192 is a Fascinating Number.
Some examples of fascinating Numbers are : 192, 219, 273, 327, 1902, 1920, 2019, etc.

Section A
Answer the following questions.
1. What is encapsulation?
Ans. Wrapping up of data and methods into a single unit is called encapsulation.
2. What are access specifiers used for? Name the access specifiers used in Java.
Ans. Access modifiers (or access specifiers) are keywords in object-oriented languages that set the
accessibility of classes, methods, and other members. Access modifiers are a specific part of
programming language syntax used to facilitate the encapsulation of components.
Access specifiers used in Java are:

Computer Applications – X (ICSE Course) Answers 222

 • Default
• private
• protected
• public
3. State the difference between:
a. Public and private access specifier
b. Protected and default access specifier
Ans. a. Public access specifier allows accessibility inside a package as well as outside the package.
Private access specifier allows accessibility only within the class.
b. The protected specifier allows access by all subclasses of the class in a program, whatever
package they reside in, as well as to other code in the same package. The default specifier
allows access by other code in the same package, but not by code that is in subclasses
residing in different packages.
4. What can’t a class be declared as private?
Ans. A top-level class as private would be completely useless because nothing would have access to
it.
5. Give an example to illustrate overloaded constructor with different access specifier.
Ans. Program to show how overloaded constructors can have different access specifiers and how are
they accessed from a different class:
class Access
{
private int a,b;
private Access(int x,int y)
//constructor with private access specifier
{
a=x;
b=y;
}
Access(int x) //overloaded constructor with default access.
{
a=b=x;
}
void show( )
{
System.out.println(a+ “ ”+b);
}
static void createObject( )
{
Access obj=new Access(5,6);
obj.show();

223 Encapsulation
 }
}
public class MainClass
{
public static void main(String args[ ])
{
/*Access obj=new Access(5,6);Error constructor has private
access specifier.*/
Access.createObject();
Access obj=new Access(7); /*Correct as the default access
version of the constructor is being called.*/
}
}
6. What is Inheritance? Which keyword is used to implement inheritance?
Ans. Inheritance is a mechanism wherein a new class is derived from an existing class. The ‘extends’
keyword is used to implement inheritance.
7. What is a package? What is its significance?
Ans. A package is a namespace that organises a set of related pre-compiled classes and interfaces
into folders.
Packages are used for:
• Preventing naming conflicts.
• Making searching/locating and usage of classes, interfaces, enumerations and annotations
easier
• Providing controlled access: protected and default have package level access control.
• Packages can be considered as data encapsulation (or data-hiding).
8. How are packages created in BlueJ?
Ans. To create a package:
Step 1: Select the Edit menu and select the New Package… option.
Step 2: E nter the name of the package in the ‘Create New Package’ dialog and hit the ‘OK’
button.
9. What do you understand by “Scope of a Variable”?
Ans. The scope of a variable is defined as the extent of the program code within which the variable
can be accessed or declared or worked with.
10. What is the scope of argument variables?
Ans. Argument variables have their scope limited only within the method or constructor block where
it is declared.

 Chapter 8
Arrays

A. Answer the following questions.

1. What are arrays?
Ans. Arrays a kind of data structure that can store a fixed-size sequential collection of elements of the
same type.
2. How do you declare single and 2-dimensional arrays?
Ans. General syntax of declaring a single dimensional array:
type array-name [ ] = new type [size];
General syntax of declaring a two dimensional array:
type array-name[][]=new type[row-size][column-size];
3. How do you create memory spaces for single and 2-dimensional arrays?
Ans. In a single dimensional array memory is allocated in contiguous spaces. For 2 dimensional
arrays also memory are allocated in contiguous memory locations, however they are logically
arranged in the form of rows and columns.
4. How do you initialise single and 2-dimensional arrays? Explain with examples.
Ans. The general form of Initialisation of single dimensional array is:
type array-name[ ]={ list of values };
For example,
int n [ ] = {5, 12, 7};
The general form of Initialisation of two dimensional array is:
type array-name[ ][ ]={ {list of values},{list of values},{list of values}... };
For example,
int a[][]={{5,1,3},{7,2,6}};
5. With the help of an example, show how arrays in Java are dynamic in nature.
Ans. Java arrays are dynamic in nature:
For example,
int n;
Scanner sc=new Scanner (System.in);
System.out.println(“Enter the size;”);
n=sc.nextInt(); //Enter the size from the user
int arr [ ]=new int[n]; //declare an array of size (dynamic)
As you can see the memory for the array arr is created only after taking the size ‘n’ from the user.
6. How do you determine the length of an array?
Ans. To determine the length of an array, the following syntax may be used:

241Arrays
 <array-name>.length
The length is the property of an array that provides the number of elements in an array.
7. With the help of an example show how arrays are passed to a function as Call by Reference.
Ans. The following illustrates how are arrays passed as call by reference:
class ArrayDemo
{
//Method to double the value of each element in the array.
static void doubleIt(int a[])
{
for(int i=0; i<a.length; i++)
{
a[i]=2*a[i];
}
}
public static void main (String args[])
{
int a []={4,5,12,7,8,3};
System.out.println(“Original Array...”);
for (inti=0;i<a. length;i++)
System.out.print(a[i]+“/t”);
doubleIt(a); // this is how you pass an array as
//parameter.
System.out.println (“InUpdated Array...”);
for(int i=0;i<a.length;i++)
System.out.print(a[i]+“\t”);
}
}
Output when main( ) is executed will be,
Original Array....
4 5 12 7 8 3
Updated Array...
8 10 24 14 16 6

8. Explain:
i. Linear Search
ii. Binary Search
Ans.
i. Linear search or sequential search is a method for finding a particular value in a list, that
consists of checking everyone of its elements, one at a time and in sequence, until the
desired one is found.
ii. Binary search in Java using divide and conquer technique. A binary search or half-interval
search algorithm finds the position of a specified value(the input“key”) within a sorted
array.

not.

10. What is the difference between one-dimensional and two-dimensional arrays?

Ans. A one-dimensional array is a list of variables with the same datatype, whereas the two-
Dimensional array is ‘array of arrays’ having similar data types.
11. With the help of an example, show how a two-dimensional float type array of size 3x4 can be
initialised.
Ans. float a[]=new float[3][4];
12. Why do you think in most cases nested loops are required to access the individual elements
of a 2-dimensional array?
Ans. This is to traverse through each element of a 2D array through each row and column.
13. How do you determine the size of a two dimensional array?
Ans. No. Of elements in a 2D array is the generally the product of the no. Of rows and no. Of columns.
14. State the advantages and disadvantages of using arrays.
Ans.
Advantages
i. Gives a concise code as declaration, allocation of space and Initialisation can be done in a
single line.
ii. Java arrays are dynamic, unlike other languages like C, C++.
iii. It is possible to directly access any element, provided the index is known. Thus making
manipulation easy.
Disadvantages
i. Arrays allows you to store elements of only one data type, i.e., only homogenous data can
be stored, thus data of heterogenous data type cannot be stored, which is often required
by a programmer.
ii. Arrays always require contiguous free memory location to be allocated for storing elements.
But there may be situations when the available memory is discrete in nature and therefore
array cannot be used to efficiently use the memory.
iii. Careful design is required to make sure that large lists of data can be stored.

243Arrays
B. Answer as directed:
1. What is the difference between these two statements:
i. int sum[]=new int[10] ii. sum[1]=10;
Ans. The first statement declares an integer array of size 10 having the name ‘sum’. The second
statement initialises the second element of the array ‘sum’ with 10.
2. Write the correct form of the following arrays:
i. A1(2) ii. Name[2,5]
iii. Roll[2;] iv. Matrix(5)(5)
Ans. i. A1[2]
ii. Name[2][5]
iii. Roll[2]
iv. Matrix[5][5]
3. Write the value of individual array element.
i. int c[]={78,23,45,12,16};
ii. int p[][]={{1,1},{3,3},{5,5},{7,7}};
Ans.
i. c[0]=78, c[1]=23, c[2]=45, c[3]=12, c[4]=16
ii. p[0][0]=1, p[0][1]=1, p[1][0]=3, p[1][1]=3, p[2][0]=5, p[2][1]=5, p[3][0]=7, p[3][1]=7
4. Give the proper array declaration for the following:
i. Declare an integer array, which can hold 25 values.
ii. Declare a two dimensional array called mat 3×4 of integer.
iii. Declare and initialise a two dimensional array of size 5×5 to 0.
Ans. i. int a[]=new int[25];
ii. int mat[][]=new int[3][4];
iii. int a[][]={{0,0,0,0,0},{0,0,0,0,0},{0,0,0,0,0},{0,0,0,0,0},{0,0,0,0,0}};

Question 1
(a) Differentiate between class variable and instance variable.
(b) Mention two difference between Binary search and Linear search.
(c) Define wrapper class.
(d) What do you mean by rvalue and lvalue?
(e) Why Java do not require a destructor?
Ans.
(a) Class variables only have one copy that is shared by all the different objects of a class,
whereas every object has it’s own personal copy of an instance.
(b) The major difference between linear search and binary search is that binary search takes
less time to search an element from the sorted list of elements. So it is inferred that
efficiency of binary search method is greater than linear search.
Another difference between the two is that there is a prerequisite for the binary search,
i.e., the elements must be sorted while in linear search there is no such prerequisite.
(c) A Wrapper class is a class whose object wraps or contains a primitive data types. In other
words, we can wrap a primitive value into a wrapper class object.
(d) “lvalue” either means “expression which can be placed on the left-hand side of the
assignment operator”, or means “expression which has a memory address”. “rvalue” is
defined as “all other expressions”.
(e) Java has its own garbage collection implementation so it does not require any destructor
like C++ . Still we can have destructor along with garbage collector where developer can
free resources and which can save garbage collector’s work.
Question 2
(a) State the difference between Constructor and Method.
(b) Define fall through.
(c) What is the difference between ordinary compilation and Java compilation?
(d) What is the difference between String and Array?
(e) What is meant by private visibility of a method?
Ans. (a)
Java Constructor Java Method
Constructor is used to initialize the state of an Method is used to expose behaviour of an
object. object.

327 Model Test Paper-1

 Constructor must not have return type. Method must have return type.
Constructor is invoked implicitly. Method is invoked explicitly.
The java compiler provides a default constructor Method is not provided by compiler in any
if you don’t have any constructor. case.
Constructor name must be same as the class Method name may or may not be same as class
name name.

(b) A “fall through” is what we call it when a case in a switch statement doesn’t end in a break,
return, throw, or any other control-breaking statement. In these cases, program execution
continues to the next case block (regardless of the value in the switch), and so control “falls
through” to the case below it.
(c) In ordinary compilation the source code is directly converted into machine or object code
using an interpreter or a compiler .In Java compilation into an the source code is first
converted into an intermediate code called the byte code.
(d) An array is used to hold multiple values of the same type. An array may hold
• multiple primitive values of same type, or
• multiple object references of same type.
String is a nothing but a sequence of characters within double quotes.
(e) Private access modifier simply means that the method on which it is used will be accessible
only in the enclosing class.
Question 3
(a) Name the keyword that
(i) Transfers the control to the beginning of the loop and skips the rest of the loop body.
(ii) The variables whose single copy is made for all the objects of a class.
(iii) The keyword that is used to distinguish between instance variable and local variables.
(b) Give the output of the following:
int x=10;
int y=20;
if((x<y)||(x=5)>10)
System.out.print(y);
else
System.out.print(x);
(c) What will be the output of the following program segment?
String name[]={“Board”,”Examinations”};
System.out.println(name[0].length());
System.out.println(name.length());

Question 1
(a) What do you know about instance variable?
(b) Explain the concept of try-catch-finally with a suitable example. What is the use of ‘finally’
keyword?
(c) State and explain the multiple branch selection statement provided by Java.
(d) Given numbers 23, 45, -33, 533, 100. Illustrate a binary search to locate the number 500.
(e) What is control variable?
Ans.
(a) Instance variable in java is used by Objects to store their states. Variables which are defined
without the STATIC keyword and are Outside any method declaration are Object specific
and are known as instance variables. They are called so because their values are instance
specific and are not shared among instances.
(b) The try block encases any statements that might cause an exception to occur. The catch
block(s) provide a place to handle the exception thrown by the statements within a try
block.
The statements in the finally block are always executed. This is useful to clean up resources
in the event of the try block executing without an exception and in the cases when there is
an exception.
For example,
class x
{
static void divide(int a,int b)
{
int c;
try
{
c=a/b;
System.out.println(“Quotient:”+c);
}
catch(ArithmeticException e)
{
System.out.println(“Division error”);
}
finally
{

337 Model Test Paper-2

 System.out.println(“End of the program”);
}
}
}

(c) The switch statement is a multi-way branch statement. The switch statement of Java is
another selection statement that defines multiple paths of execution of a program. It
provides a better alternative than a large series of if-else-if statements.
(d) Set of numbers: 23, 45, -33, 533, 100
Ascending Order: -33, 23, 45, 100, 533
Lower limit Upper limit Mid Check
0 4 2 45<500
3 4 3 100<500
4 4 4 533>500
4 3 --- Not found
(e) A control variable in computer programming is a program variable that is used to regulate
the flow of control of the program. In definite iteration, control variables are variables
which are successively assigned (or bound to) values from a predetermined sequence of
values.
Question 2
(a) Why is a class known as composite data type?
(b) What is Recursive method?
(c) What is Function Signature?
(d) Differentiate a constructor from a destructor.
(e) Which unit of a class gets called when the object of the class is created?
Ans.
(a) A composite data type is one which is composed with various primitive data type. A
class defined with various primitive data types such as int, double etc; so it is known as a
composite data type; and it is used to create objects which hold similar types of values and
behaviours (functions).
(b) Recursion is a basic programming technique you can use in Java, in which a method calls
itself to solve some problem. A method that uses this technique is recursive method.
(c) A function signature (or type signature, or method signature) defines input and output of
functions or methods. A signature can include: parameters and their types. a return value
and type. exceptions that might be thrown or passed back.
(d) Constructor is used to initialize the instance of a class. Destructor destroys the objects
when they are no longer needed. Constructor is Called when new instance of a class is
created. Destructor is called when instance of a class is deleted or released.
(e) Constructor

Question 3
(a) Encapsulation wraps up the attributes and methods of the object – comment.
(b) Write the prototype of the function that returns a double value and takes three double
parameters x, y and z as its parameters.
(c) In the following statements assume a = 50, b = 10 and c = 20.
The statement is c + = ( a>0 && a<=10 )? + + a : a / b;
What is the value of c?
(d) A method definition is as shown below:
int power ( int x, int y )
{
int f = 1;
for ( int i = 1; i <= y; i + +)
f * = i;
return ( f );
}
(e) Answer the following:
i. What is the term given to the variables x and y?
ii. What is the significance of the type int used before the method name power?
Ans.
(a) Encapsulation is wrapping, just hiding properties and methods. Encapsulation is used for
hide the code and data in a single unit to protect the data from the outside the world. Class
is the best example of encapsulation.
(b) double function(double a, double b, double c)
(c) 25
(d) (i) Parameters or Arguments
(ii) The return type of the function is int.

Question 4
(a) Read the following overloaded method prototypes and answer the question that follow:
void calculate ( int x, double y );
void calculate ( double x, double y, double z);
(i) Write the java statement to invoke the method “calculate” using actual parameters a = 20, b
= 45.52.
(ii) Write the java prototype to overload the method calculate to return a double result and
accepts two double parameters.

339 Model Test Paper-2

 (b) Write the output of the following:
int a[ ] = { 5, 8, 7, 3, 2 };
a[ 1 ] = a[ 3 ];
a[ 2 ] = a[ 4 ];
a[ 3 ] = a[ 1 ] + a[ 2 ];
for ( int i = 0; i < 5; i + + )
System.out.print( a[ i ] + “,” );
(c) What are wrapper classes?
(d) What do you know about visibility control?
(e) What is an abstract method?
Ans.
(a) (i) calculate(a,b);
(ii) double calculate(double x,double y)
(b) 5.3.2.5.2.
(c) A Wrapper class is a class whose object wraps or contains a primitive data types. When
we create an object to a wrapper class, it contains a field and in this field, we can store a
primitive data types. In other words, we can wrap a primitive value into a wrapper class
object.
(d) Visibility control in Java is implemented using Access Modifiers. An Access Modifier is a
key word in java that determines what level of access or visibility a particular java variable/
method or class has. There are 4 basic access modifiers in java. They are- Public, Protected,
Default and Private.
Private is the most restrictive access modifier whereas public is the least restrictive. Default
is the access protection you get when you do not specifically mention an access modifier to
be used for a java object.
(e) Abstract methods, similar to methods within an interface, are declared without any
implementation. They are declared with the purpose of having the child class provide
implementation.

(c) In addition to overloading methods, we can also overload constructors in java. Overloaded
constructor is called based upon the parameters specified when new is executed. Sometimes
there is a need of initializing an object in different ways. This can be done using constructor
overloading.
For example,
class Box
{
double width, height, depth;

// constructor used when all dimensions

// specified
Box(double w, double h, double d)
{
width = w;
height = h;
depth = d;
}

// constructor used when no dimensions

// specified
Box()
{
width = height = depth = 0;
}

// constructor used when cube is created

Box(double len)

Question 1
(a) Define Abstraction in Java.
(b) What are actual parameters and formal parameters?
(c) Differentiate between for loop and do-while loop.
(d) Define Wrapper class with an example.
(e) How much bytes does the following data types occupy:
(i) Short
(ii) long
(iii) double
(iv) char
Ans.
(a) Abstraction is a process of hiding the implementation details from the user. Оnly the
functionality will be provided to the user. In Java, abstraction is achieved using abstract
classes and interfaces.
(b) Java tutorial: actual parameter vs formal parameter. Formal parameters are the parameters
as they are known in the function/method definition. Actual parameters are also known as
arguments and are passed by the caller on method invocation (calling the method).
(c) Difference:
for loop do while loop
It is an entry controlled loop. It is an exit controlled loop.
The loop do not execute if the condition The loop executes at least once even if the
is false. condition is false.

(d) A Wrapper class is a class whose object wraps or contains a primitive data types. When
we create an object to a wrapper class, it contains a field and in this field, we can store a
primitive data types. In other words, we can wrap a primitive value into a wrapper class
object. Example- Integer, Character Float, Short etc.
(e) (i) 2 bytes
(ii) 8 bytes
(iii) 8 bytes
(iv) 2 bytes

Question 2
(a) Declare the array of 5 integers and initialize first five even numbers to it.
(b) What is ternary operator? Give one example.
(c) What is meant by implicit and explicit type conversion?
(d) Name the branching statements in Java.
(e) Name any two packages in Java.
Ans.
(a) int a[]={2,4,6,8,10};
(b) The ternary operator is an operator that takes three arguments. The first argument is a
comparison argument, the second is the result upon a true comparison, and the third is the
result upon a false comparison. If it helps you can think of the operator as shortened way of
writing an if-else statement. It is often used as a way to assign variables based on the result
of an comparison. When used correctly it can help increase the readability and reduce the
amount of lines in your code.
Example: b=(a>10)?15:16;
(c) When the type conversion is performed automatically by the compiler without the
programmer’s intervention, the type conversion is referred to as implicit type conversion.
The compiler basically promotes all operands to the data type of the largest operand.
The type conversion which is enforced by the programmer is called explicit type conversion.
Basically, the programmer forces an expression to be of a specific type. Explict type
conversion is also called type casting.
(d) Branching statements: if, if-else, if-else if-else and switch-case.
(e) java.util and java.lang
Question 3
(a) What will be the output of the following program segment?
int a = 0, b = 30, c = 40;

What is the result in each of the following cases?
(i) System.out.print(str.charAt(2) + “ ” + str.charAt(3));
(ii) System.out.print(str.substring(3,1).equals(str.substring(3,4)));
(iii) System.out.println (str.startsWith(“ST”));
(iv) System.out.print (str.indexOf(‘R’);
(c) State two differences in binary search and linear search techniques.
(d) State the output:
(i) x= y + 5; if x = 2 & y = 2

(h) Consider the array: 13, 19, 6, 2, 35, 28, 5, 16, 65, 4 which sorting algorithm will produce the
following result after 3 iterations? 13 6 2 19 35 28 5 16 65 4
(i) Define a counter variable in java.
(j) Explain the term package.
Ans.
(a) a = 98
(b) (i) R I
(ii) Error
(iii) true
(iv) 2
(c) Difference:
Linear Search Binary Search
Array may not be sorted Array should be sorted.
Searching is slow. Searching is faster.
(d) (i) x=7
(ii) X=2
(e) char =’\0’
String=null
int=0
double=0.0
(f) A static variable is common to all the instances (or objects) of the class because it is a class
level variable. In other words you can say that only a single copy of static variable is created
and shared among all the instances of the class. Memory allocation for such variables only
happens once when the class is loaded in the memory.
(g) Commission=(amount>1000 && amount<10000)?4000:0;
(h) Bubble Sorting
(i) A counter variable is a variable that is used to keep track of the number of times an
operation is performed.
(j) Package in Java is a mechanism to encapsulate a group of classes, sub packages and
interfaces. Packages are used for:
• Preventing naming conflicts. For example there can be two classes with name Employee
in two packages, college.staff.cse.Employee and college.staff.ee.Employee
• Making searching/locating and usage of classes, interfaces, enumerations and
annotations easier
• Providing controlled access: protected and default have package level access control.
A protected member is accessible by classes in the same package and its subclasses.
A default member (without any access specifier) is accessible by classes in the same
package only.
• Packages can be considered as data encapsulation (or data-hiding).

Question 4
Write a program to check if a number is a Magic Number or not. A number is said to be a Magic
number if the sum of its digits are calculated till a single digit is obtained by recursively adding
the sum of its digits. If the single digit comes to be 1 then the number is a magic number.
Example- 199 is a magic number as 1+9+9=19 but 19 is not a single digit number so 1+9=10 and
then 1+0=1 which is a single digit number and also 1. Hence it is a magic number.

Write a Java program to print the first 15 numbers of the Pell series.
In mathematics, the Pell numbers are an infinite sequence of integers. The Sequence of Pell
numbers starts with 0 and 1, and then each Pell number is the sum of twice the previous Pell
number and the Pell number before that.: thus, 70 is the companion to 29, and 70 = 2 x 29 + 12
= 58 + 12. The first few terms of the sequences are: 0, 1, 2, 5, 12, 29, 70, 169, 408, 985, 2378,

Question 7
A class Sort contains an array of 50 integers. Some of the member functions/data members are
given below:
Class name Sort
Data members/instance variables
arr[] integers
item number to be searched for in the array
Member functions/methods
void inpdata() to input 50 integers.
void bubsort() to sort the array in ascending order using the bubblesort technique and to display
the sorted list.

 void binsearch() to input item and search for it using the binary search technique, if found to
print the item searched and its position in the sorted list, otherwise to print an appropriate
message.
Specify the class Sort giving the details of the functions void inpdata(), void bubsort() and void
binsearch().
The main function need not be written.
Ans.
import java.util.*;
class Sort
{
int arr[]=new int[50];
void inpdata()
{
int i;
Scanner sc=new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println(“Enter the value:”);
for(i=0;i<50;i++)
{
arr[i]=sc.nextInt();
}
}
void bubsort()
{
int i,j,t;
for(i=49;i>0;i--)
{
for(j=0;j<i;j++)
{
if(arr[j]>arr[j+1])
{
t=arr[j];
arr[j]=arr[j+1];
arr[j+1]=t;
}
}
}
}
void binsearch()
{
