OO Concepts Quiz 19
The quiz below tests your knowledge of the material learnt in OO Concepts - Lesson 19 - The Object Superclass.
Question 1 : How do we use an interface in our classes?
- We use an interface in our classes by implementing it with the <code>implements</code> keyword in the class definition.
Question 41 : Is the following code snippet valid?
public class B implements C extends A { }
- This code snippet is invalid as the <code>implements</code> keyword must follow the <code>extends</code> keyword when used together.
Question 40 : Two modifiers are implicitly applied to methods within an interface, what are they?
- The <code>public</code> and <code>abstract</code> modifiers are implicitly applied to methods within an interface.
Question 42 : What is the main benefit of interfaces?
- Interfaces allow us to use method arguments and return types polymorphically.
Question 43 : Assuming C, D and E are interfaces is the following code snippet valid?
public class B extends A implements C, D, E { }
- This snippet is perfectly valid as we can implement any number of interfaces.
Question 44 : Assuming the following are in different files is the following code snippet valid?
public interface A { void b(int b); }
public class B implements A { void b(int b) {} }
- Class <code>B</code> won't compile as the <code>b()</code> method is less restrictive. <br>. The complier implicitly applies the <code>public</code>
and <code>abstract</code> modifiers to interface methods and <i>overrides</i> methods can't be less restrictive.
Question 45 : What would be the output of the following code snippet?
public interface A { void b(); }
public class B implements A { public void b() {} }
public class C extends B {
public static void main(String[] args) {
B b = new B();
C c = new C();
if (b instanceof A) { System.out.print("true,"); }
if (c instanceof B) { System.out.print("true,"); }
if (c instanceof A) { System.out.print("true"); }
}
}
- The output will be 'true,true,true' as class <code>C</code> inherits the implementation of interface <code>A</code> through class <code>B</code>
Question 46 : What must we ensure when implementing an interface?
- We must honour the interface contract by ensuring we <i>override</i> all methods in the implementation class or first <i>concrete subclass</em> thereof.
Question 7 : What is output from the following code snippet?
package info.java8;
public class S {
int i = 1;
public static void main(String[] args) {
S s = new S(1);
}
S() {
System.out.print("i = " + 1);
}
S(int i) {
super();
this();
System.out.print("i = " + 1);
}
}
- The code won't compile as we cannot use <code>super()</code> and <code>this()</code> together.
