  • Question
  • What will be the output of the program?
    public class MyProgram 
    {
        public static void main(String args[])
        {
            try 
            {
                System.out.print("Hello world ");
            }
            finally 
            {
                System.out.println("Finally executing ");
            }
        }
    }
    


  • Options
  • A. Nothing. The program will not compile because no exceptions are specified.
  • B. Nothing. The program will not compile because no catch clauses are specified.
  • C. Hello world.
  • D. Hello world Finally executing

  • Correct Answer
  • Hello world Finally executing 

    Explanation
    Finally clauses are always executed. The program will first execute the try block, printing Hello world, and will then execute the finally block, printing Finally executing.

    Option A, B, and C are incorrect based on the program logic described above. Remember that either a catch or a finally statement must follow a try. Since the finally is present, the catch is not required.

    • 1. Assuming that the equals() and hashCode() methods are properly implemented, if the output is "x = 1111", which of the following statements will always be true?
      x = 0;
      if (x1.hashCode() != x2.hashCode() )  x = x + 1;
      if (x3.equals(x4) )  x = x + 10;
      if (!x5.equals(x6) ) x = x + 100;
      if (x7.hashCode() == x8.hashCode() )  x = x + 1000;
      System.out.println("x = " + x);
      

    • Options
    • A. x2.equals(x1)
    • B. x3.hashCode() == x4.hashCode()
    • C. x5.hashCode() != x6.hashCode()

    • 2. The static method Thread.currentThread() returns a reference to the currently executing Thread object. What is the result of this code?
      class Test 
      {
          public static void main(String [] args) 
          {
              printAll(args);

              }
          }
      }
      

    • Options
    • A. Each String in the array lines will output, with a 1-second pause.
    • B. Each String in the array lines will output, with no pause in between because this method is not executed in a Thread.
    • C. Each String in the array lines will output, and there is no guarantee there will be a pause because currentThread() may not retrieve this thread.
    • D. This code will not compile.

    • 3. Which answer most closely indicates the behavior of the program?
      public class MyProgram 
      {
          public static void throwit() 
          {
              throw new RuntimeException();
          }
          public static void main(String args[])

    • B. The program will print Hello world, then will print that a RuntimeException has occurred, then will print Done with try block, and then will print Finally executing.
    • C. The program will print Hello world, then will print that a RuntimeException has occurred, and then will print Finally executing.
    • D. The program will print Hello world, then will print Finally executing, then will print that a RuntimeException has occurred.
