SECTION B: Choose 4 Questions Only./ 20 Marks

21. Explain the purpose of Serialization and deserialization in Java I/O. /5 Marks
Sample Answer: Serialization is a mechanism of converting the state of an object into
a byte stream. Deserialization is the reverse process where the byte stream is used
to recreate the actual Java object in memory. This mechanism is used to persist the
object.

22. Explain the difference between FileReader and FileInputStream./5 Marks

Sample Answer:
● FileInputStream to allows bytes to be read from a file
● FileReader is used to read a single character of data.
23. Explain the difference between checked and unchecked exceptions. Give one example
in each category./5 Marks
Sample Answer
Checked Exceptions
Compiler checks and deals with exceptions. Compiler error is returned if exception is not
handled
Examples:
FileNotFoundException, IOException
• Unchecked Exceptions:
•Compiler does not check and deal with exceptions
Examples:
ArrayIndexOutOfBounds Exception, NullPointerException,ArithmeticException
24. Mention the best practices for exception handling in Java./5 Marks
Sample Answer(Proper description on the use of the following keywords)
Java exception handling is managed via five keywords:
try, catch, throw, throws, and finally.
25. Write a try-catch block with multiple catch clauses to handle
NullPointerException and ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException exceptions
separately. Explain the importance of handling different exceptions./5 Marks
Marking: Try catch catch :4 Marks importance 1 Mark
try{
//To do statements
}catch(NullPointerException e){
System.out.println("Exception"+e.getMessage();
 //System.out.println(“Exception”+e.toString();
//e.printStackTrace();
//System.out.println(“Exception Occured”);
}catch(ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException ex){
System.out.println("Exception"+ex.getMessage());
//System.out.println(“Exception”+e.toString();
//e.printStackTrace();
//System.out.println(“Exception Occured”);
}
//Optional Block
finally{
//System.out.println(“Something”);
}
Sample Answer(Minimum 2 importance added):
• It allows for more Accurate Error Reporting
• Facilitates Debugging and Troubleshooting
• Improves the Security of the Program
• Provides a Better user Experience
• Grouping and Differentiating Error Types

SECTION C: This section is mandatory. Attempt all Questions. /30 Marks

23. Create Person class with id, name, identity, dob and inherits it using Account class which
have accountNumber and balance attribute. The account class should have additional
methods which are deposit and withdraw which take balance as a parameter. The amount to
