1. Question
Which of the below is valid way to instantiate an array in java?
Correctint [] myArray = {"1", "2", "3"};is invalid because String can’t be converted to int.int [] myArray = (5, 4, 3);is invalid because array elements are defined in curly braces ({}).int myArray [] [] = {1,2,3,4};is invalid because myArray is a two dimensional array whereas it’s being defined as one dimensional array. Compiler will complain asType mismatch: cannot convert from int to int[].Incorrectint [] myArray = {"1", "2", "3"};is invalid because String can’t be converted to int.int [] myArray = (5, 4, 3);is invalid because array elements are defined in curly braces ({}).int myArray [] [] = {1,2,3,4};is invalid because myArray is a two dimensional array whereas it’s being defined as one dimensional array.

3. Question
What will happen if we try to compile and run below program?
interface Foo{ int x = 10; } public class Test { public static void main(String[] args) { Foo.x = 20; System.out.println(Foo.x); } }CorrectBy default any field of interface is public, static and final. So we can’t change is, hence compile time error at line 8 statement
Foo.x = 20;.IncorrectBy default any field of interface is public, static and final. So we can’t change is, hence compile time error at line 8 statement
Foo.x = 20;. - Question 4 of 21
4. Question
What will be the output of below program?
public class Test { public static void main(String[] args) { char c = 65; System.out.println("c = "+c); } }CorrectJava compiler tries to automatically convert int to char. Since 65 gets converted to A, hence output will be “c = A”. Note that char are limited to values from \u0000 to \uffff. So
char c = 65535;is valid butchar c = 65536;will give compile time error.IncorrectJava compiler tries to automatically convert int to char. Since 65 gets converted to A, hence output will be “c = A”. Note that char are limited to values from \u0000 to \uffff. So

6. Question
What are the valid statements for
statickeyword in java?CorrectWe can have static block in a class, it gets executed only once when class loads. From java 8 onwards, we can have static method implementations in interfaces.

What will be the output of below program?
public class Test { public static void main(String[] args) { String x = "abc"; String y = "abc"; x.concat(y); System.out.print(x); } }Correctx.concat(y);will create a new string but it’s not assigned to x, so value of x is not changed.Incorrectx.concat(y);will create a new string but it’s not assigned to x, so value of x is not changed. - Question 13 of 21

What will be the output of below program?
package com.journaldev.util; public class Test { public static String toString(){ System.out.println("Test toString called"); return ""; } public static void main(String args[]){ System.out.println(toString()); } }CorrectWe will get compile time error because we can’t have an Object class method overridden with static keyword. Note that Object class has
toString()method. You will get compile time error as “This static method cannot hide the instance method from Object”.IncorrectWe will get compile time error because we can’t have an Object class method overridden with static keyword. Note that Object class has

What will be the output of below program?
public class Test { public static void main(String[] args) { String s1 = "abc"; String s2 = "abc"; System.out.println("s1 == s2 is:" + s1 == s2); } }CorrectThe given statements output will be “false” because in java + operator precedence is more than == operator. So the given expression will be evaluated to “s1 == s2 is:abc” == “abc” i.e false.

Where to start quiz. I am not able to see any link

I was editing the Quiz questions, so it was unavailable for some time. It’s back up again now, please give it a try. Thanks.
Peter Alexay says
Good questions! Thanks for your quiz.
Svetik says
Thanks for this great test! It showed me a lot of gaps in my knowledge! It would be great to have some more ! 🙂

Greetings from Venezuela, good job

doing good job sir

Hi
I need SQL program like many to one, one to one, one to many on different different kind. who has been asked in interview …
Alex says
Description of answer to question 11 about multiple exceptions handling depends on language level, although it’s сompile time error in any case.
java multi-catch statement is not supported in -source 1.6
Pankaj says
Hi Alex,
Any programming test always assume the latest version. For example, if you have a lambda program, you shouldn’t say that output depends on whether you are on java 8 or lower.
Aly says
Good job! Thanks.
Only one remark:
question ” Can we have two main methods in a java class?” The answer no is incorrect.
Because yes, we can have 2 methods, for example:
public class A {
public static void main( Stting [] args) {}
public void main( int[] args) {}
}
Why not?)
Pankaj says
I think you didn’t checked the question properly, you are iterating the same thing in the question explanation.

good job…a very good medium for begineers .
Miguel Torres says
Excellent JAVA Core quiz. I realized that I need to practice more the basic topics, We apreciate all your efforts. Thanks
Regards
Yevgeny says
The quiz is very good but IMO it contains mistakes. “null” cannot be used as a name of variable.Therefore, it is a reserved word in Java. This is output from javac.
test.java: error: expected
String null;
^
Pankaj says
null is not a reserved keyword, please check below link.
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/nutsandbolts/_keywords.html
pa1 says
true, false, and null might seem like keywords, but they are actually literals; you cannot use them as identifiers in your programs.
Williams Ramos Horizonte says
excelent
Unamuno says
Even if you use a multiple choice approach, the answer may not be true or false.
Example given: You asked for java keywords, and rated my answer incorrect. But null is no keyword, nbut the null literal. I noticed several of such things but did’nt took the time to write everything down.
I’ll visit again and try to give more comments.
Thanks for your efforts, it helps in preparing very simple tasks.
But they’re far away from what I excpect fromwhat I expect students at my university to master once they have terminated their bachelor courses.
Pankaj says
The question and answers for java keywords are correct, let me drop you an email for this.
