Answer

Question 2

What will happen if you compile/run the following code?

1:    class Test
2:    {
3:        static void show()
4:        {
5:             System.out.println("Show method in Test class");
6:        }
7:    }
8:
9:    public class Q2 extends Test
10:   {
11:       static void show()
12:       {
13:            System.out.println("Show method in Q2 class");
14:       }
15:       public static void main(String[] args)
16:       {
17:            Test t = new Test();
18:            t.show();

Answer

 

1:    public class Q8
2:    {
3:        int i = 20;
4:        static 
5:        {

Answer

    D.  After the execution of stop() method, thread won't execute any more statements.

Back to Question 1

    D. Explicit casting is required at line 25.

Back to Question 2

    B. You can't override an non-static method with static method.

Back to Question 3

    B. You can't override a static method with non-static method.

Back to Question 4

    D.

Back to Question 5

    C.

Back to Question 6

    D.

Back to Question 7

    D.  Here the variable "i" defined in static initializer is local to that block only. 
        The statements in the static initializers will be executed (only once) when the class is first created.

Back to Question 8
