(d)Polymorphism

Question 17

A method marked as final means the compiler uses ________ binding.
(a)dynamic
(b)early
(c)late
(d)none of the above

Question 18

(d)None of the above

Question 21

Java uses late binding with private methods,methods marked final,or static methods.

Question 22

What are the advantages of polymorphism?

Question 23

What is wrong with the following method definition?
public abstract void doSomething(int count)

Question 24

Implement the base class in the shoe hierarchy in number 8 above.

Question 25

Derive a class named Boots from the base class created in number 9 above.

Question 26

Explain the difference between early and late binding.

Question 27

What is polymorphism and how does it relate to late binding?

Question 28

The method clone has one parameter and should return a copy of the calling object.

Question 29

Why should the instanceOf operator be used in conjunction with downcasting?

Question 30

Write a decision statement to determine if an object should be downcast.

Question 31

Draw an inheritance hierarchy to represent a shoe object.The base class should have derived classes of Dress Shoes,Tennis Shoes and Boots.

Question 32

Derive a class named Tennis Shoes from the base class created in number 9 above.

Question 33

The final modifier is included before the definition of the method,then the method can be redefined in a derived class.

Question 34

Downcasting should be used only in situations where it makes sense.

Question 35

Derive a class named Dress Shoes from the base class created in number 9 above.

Question 36

The type of the variable naming an object determines which method names can be used in an invocation with that calling object.

Question 37

Question 38

An abstract class is a class that has some methods without complete definitions.

Question 39

Describe the limitations of the copy constructor.

Question 40

An abstract method serves as a placeholder for a method that must be defined in all derived classes.
