NEW SUN CERTIFIED PROGRAMMER FOR THE JAVA 2 PLATFORM SAMPLE QUESTIONS
1. Given:
public class ArrayTest {

ov = sa;
System.out.println("Color = " + ov[1]);

fails to compile
prints Color=Blue
prints Color=Green
generates an exception at runtime
2. Given:

private double d1 = 1.0;
//insert code here
}
You need to insert an inner class declaration at line 3. Which two inner class declarations are valid?(Choose two.)
class InnerOne{
public static double methoda() {return d1;}
}
public class InnerOne{
static double methoda() {return d1;}
}
private class InnerOne{
double methoda() {return d1;}
}
static class InnerOne{
protected double methoda() {return d1;}
}
abstract class InnerOne{
public abstract double methoda();
}
3. Given:
public class X {
public void m(Object x) {
x = new Integer(99);
Integer y = (Integer)x;
y = null;
System.out.println("x is" + x);
}
}
When is the Integer object, created in line 3, eligible for garbage collection?
never
just after line 4
just after line 5

SUN CERTIFIED PROGRAMMER FOR THE JAVA PLATFORM, JDK 1.1
Note: The certification exam for the jdk 1.1 will be retired January 31, 2001. If you plan to pursue this certification you will need to register by this date. As of February 1, 2001, Sun will only offer certification exams for the Java 2 Platform.
The following samples will help you understand the types of questions you can expect to see when taking the Certified Programmer for the Java Platform, JDK 1.1 examination: Prometric exam number 310-022 (number 310-023 for IBM candidates).
1. Which code fragments would correctly identify the number of arguments passed via the command line to a Java application, excluding the name of the class that is being invoked?
int count = args.length;
int count = args.length - 1;
int count = 0; while (args[count] != null) count ++;
int count=0; while (!(args[count].equals(""))) count ++;
2. Which are keywords in Java (select all that apply)?
sizeof
abstract
native
NULL
BOOLEAN
3. Which are correct class declarations? Assume in each case that the text constitutes the entire contents of a file called Fred.java on a system with a case-significant file system. Select all that apply.
public class Fred {
public int x = 0;
public Fred (int x) {
this.x = x;
}
}
public class fred
public int x = 0;
public fred (int x) {
this.x = x;
}
}
public class Fred extends MyBaseClass, MyOtherBaseClass {
public int x = 0;
public Fred (int xval) {
x = xval;
}
}
protected class Fred {
private int x = 0;
private Fred (int xval) {
x = xval;
}
}
import java.awt.*;
public class Fred extends Object {
int x;
private Fred (int xval) {
x = xval;
}
}
4. A class design requires that a particular member variable must beaccessible for direct access by any subclasses of this class, but otherwise not by classes which are not members of the same package. What should be done to achieve this?
The variable should be marked public
The variable should be marked private
The variable should be marked protected
The variable should have no special access modifier
The variable should be marked private and an accessor method provided
5. Which correctly creates an array of five empty Strings (select all that apply)?
String a [ ] = new String [5]; for (int i = 0; i < 5; a[i++] = "");
String a [ ] = {"", "", "", "", ""};
String a [5];
String [ ] a = new String [5]; for (int i = 0; i < 5; a[i++] = null);
String [5] a;
6. Which cannot be added to a Container?
an Applet
a Component
a Container
a Menu
a Panel
