Java Packages and interface
1) What are packages ? What is use of packages ?
Ans :The package statement defines a name space in
which classes are stored.If you omit the package, the
classes are put into the default package.
Signature... package pkg;
Use: * It specifies to which package the classes defined in
a file belongs to. * Package is both naming and a visibility
control mechanism.
2) What is difference between importing
"java.applet.Applet" and "java.applet.*;" ?
Ans :"java.applet.Applet" will import only the class Applet
from the package java.applet
Where as "java.applet.*" will import all the classes from
java.applet package.
3) What do you understand by package access specifier?
Ans : public: Anything declared as public can be accessed
from anywhere
private: Anything declared in the private can’t be seen
outside of its class.
default: It is visible to subclasses as well as to other
classes in the same package.
4) What is interface? What is use of interface?
Ans : It is similar to class which may contain method’s
signature only but not bodies.
Methods declared in interface are abstract methods. We
can implement many interfaces on a class which support
the multiple inheritance.
5) Is it is necessary to implement all methods in an
interface?
Ans : Yes. All the methods have to be implemented.
6) Which is the default access modifier for an interface
method?
Ans : public.
7) Can we define a variable in an interface ?and what type
it should be ?
Ans : Yes we can define a variable in an interface. They
are implicitly final and static.
8) What is difference between interface and an abstract
class?
Ans : All the methods declared inside an Interface are
abstract. Where as abstract class must have at least one
abstract method and others may be concrete or abstract.
In Interface we need not use the keyword abstract for the
methods.
9) By default, all program import the java.lang package.
True/False
Ans : True
10) Java compiler stores the .class files in the path
specified in CLASSPATH
environmental variable.
True/False
Ans : False
11) User-defined package can also be imported just like
the standard packages.
True/False
Ans : True
12) When a program does not want to handle exception,
the ______class is used.
Ans : Throws
13) The main subclass of the Exception class is _______
class.
Ans : RuntimeException
14) Only subclasses of ______class may be caught or
thrown.
Ans : Throwable
15) Any user-defined exception class is a subclass of the
_____ class.
Ans : Exception
16) The catch clause of the user-defined exception class
should ______ its
Base class catch clause.
Ans : Exception
17) A _______ is used to separate the hierarchy of the
class while declaring an
Import statement.
Ans : Package
18) All standard classes of Java are included within a
package called _____.
Ans : java.lang
19) All the classes in a package can be simultaneously
imported using ____.
Ans : *
20) Can you define a variable inside an Interface. If no,
why? If yes, how?
Ans.: YES. final and static
21) How many concrete classes can you have inside an
interface?
Ans.: None
22) Can you extend an interface?
Ans.: Yes
23) Is it necessary to implement all the methods of an
interface while implementing the interface?
Ans.: No
24) If you do not implement all the methods of an interface
while implementing , what specifier should you use for the
class ?
Ans.: abstract
25) How do you achieve multiple inheritance in Java?
Ans: Using interfaces.
26) How to declare an interface example?
Ans : access class classname implements interface.
27) Can you achieve multiple interface through interface?
a)True
b) false
Ans : a.
28) Can variables be declared in an interface ? If so, what
are the modifiers?
Ans : Yes. final and static are the modifiers can be
declared in an interface.
29) What are the possible access modifiers when
implementing interface methods?
Ans : public.
30) Can anonymous classes be implemented an
interface?
Ans : Yes.
31) Interfaces can’t be extended.
a)True
b)False
Ans : b.
32) Name interfaces without a method?
Ans : Serializable, Cloneble & Remote.
33) Is it possible to use few methods of an interface in a
class ? If so, how?
Ans : Yes. Declare the class as abstract.
