Explanation:
If that seems a vauge answer it is because you cannot be certain of the system
that the underlying OS uses for allocating cycles for a Thread. The chances
are that once the thread has been spun off in the call to start in the
methodname() the main method will run to completion and the value of sName
will still be vandeluer before the Thread modifies it. You cannot be certain
of this though.
Just because sName is static does not mean that passing it to a method gives
the method the original copy. The method only sees a locally created copy and
any changes to it will not be reflected on return to the calling method.

This is a bit of a sneaky one as the Math.random method returns a pseudo

Constructors are executed in order of the oldest ancester down, so the output
from Biddy is seen before Val. Although the the paremeter for shep has no
floating point component, a widening conversion involves no loss of

a float will have a decimal component and thus it has a trailing zero in this

Explanation:
A variable declared as public within a method is only visible within the
method. They are sometimes called automatic variables as they automatically
come into scope when the method runs and are out of scope when the method
hasfinished execution. Variables declared within methods cannot be marked as
static. A method declared with no visibility modifier is accessible anywhere
from within the current package.A method declared with the protected modifier
is also accessible in child classes that are not in the current package.

without being sorted).
* * * *
19] 1
Explanation:
No problem here, the code compiles fine. One thing to be aware of is that i+++
++i compiles fine because of the way Java code is actually parsed. The parser
tokenizes the source in bunches of longest valid character sequences. i+++ ++i
will betokenized as i,++,+,++,i and interpreted as i++ + ++i, that is i
post-incremented plus i pre-incremented. Then you have to know how the ternary
conditional ?: operator works, that is, it always evaluates its first operand
and then depending onthe results, evaluates the second OR the third operand
(never both). So getBoolean() returns either true or false, thus the code
either prints i=2*i++ or i+++ ++i. The former is equivalent to i=2*i and the
latter to 2*i+2.

Assigning null to a reference will only cause the object it references to be
ready for garbage collection if no other reference points to it.It is possible

guarantee that an object is eligable for garbage collection.

Choice 1 & 2 are not correct, ’cause WornPadException extends

can have any code in it. Choice 5 is not correct, since the final
valuereturned is 1. Choice 6 is correct because WornPadException extends
RuntimeException it is not mandatory to surround calls to it with a try/catch

Explanation:
you can’t cast any primitive array to another primitive array type, no matter
how reasonable it seems; any array can be cast to an Object reference; you

care that theInts will have a null value when the program runs. (from
LanWrights exam)

49] 2
Explanation:
the equals method is defined in terms of taking an Object reference so there
is no problem; the equals test fails because the objects are of different
types, but the charValuereturn is promoted to int and the result is true; the
equals test fails because the objects are of different types; only the ==
comparison will result in true. Note that the compilerpromotes the charValue
return to int; promotion of the char value to int is automatic. (Credit:
LanWrights)

50] 1,3,4
Explanation:
(1) yes, this is a requirement for hashcodes and the equals method; (2) no,
two objects not equal by the == test may still have identical hashcodes (3)
Yes, if the equals() testreturns false, x and y can’t possibly refer to the
