Your Name:
8.1 The declaration below causes a compilation error because: struct MyType { int i; double d; MyType t; string s; } (a) a field cannot be declared of the same type as the type it is in (b) there are no methods or constructors in the type (c) struct cannot contain a reference to fields of its own type (d) a struct cannot contain references
struct MyType { int i; double d; MyType t; string s; }
8.2 An array type is classified as a (a) value type (b) reference type (c) either value or reference (d) neither value nor reference, it is in a group of its own
8.3 An array that can be used to keep the number of patients an emergency hospital sees every hour of the day would be declared as: (a) int[] tally = new int[24]; (b) int[] tally = new int[23]; (c) int[][] tally = new int[24][]; (d) Patients[] tally = new Patients[24]; 8.4 We have a list of objects linked by next references, and want to find an object with an x field value of 6. Four suggestions have been made: // LOOP 1 n = list; while (n != null && n.x!=6) { n = n.next; } // LOOP 2 n = list; do { if (n == null) break; n = n.next; } while (n.x != 6) // LOOP 3 n = list; while (n != null) { if (n.x == 6) break; n = n.next; } // LOOP 4 for (n = list; n != null; n = n.next) { if (n.x == 6) break; } Which of the loops will work? (a) loops 2, 3 and 4 (b) loops 1 and 3 (c) loops 1, 2 and 3 (d) loops 1, 3 and 4
// LOOP 1 n = list; while (n != null && n.x!=6) { n = n.next; } // LOOP 2 n = list; do { if (n == null) break; n = n.next; } while (n.x != 6) // LOOP 3 n = list; while (n != null) { if (n.x == 6) break; n = n.next; } // LOOP 4 for (n = list; n != null; n = n.next) { if (n.x == 6) break; }
8.5 Only one of the following statements is false. Which one? (a) Arrays are of a fixed size, but ArrayLists can grow indefinitely (b) There is a built-in method to sort arrays but not to sort ArrayLists. (c) Indices for arrays must be integers, but for ArrayLists can be anything. (d) Arrays can be multi-dimensional but ArrayLists have only one dimension.
8.6 To declare a jagged array with 4 rows and 1 more column than the row index (i.e. a triangle), we can use: (a) int a[][]; for (int i=0; i<4; i++) int a[][i] = new int[4][i+1]; (b) int a[][] = new int[4][]; for (int i=0; i<4; i++) a[i] = new int[i+1]; (c) int a[][] = new int[4][Row+1]; (d) int a[][] = new int[4][]; for (int i=0; i<4; i++) a[i] = new int[i];
int a[][]; for (int i=0; i<4; i++) int a[][i] = new int[4][i+1];
int a[][] = new int[4][]; for (int i=0; i<4; i++) a[i] = new int[i+1];
int a[][] = new int[4][Row+1];
int a[][] = new int[4][]; for (int i=0; i<4; i++) a[i] = new int[i];
8.7 If SL is defined as a sorted list with keys of type string, then which loop will print out all the keys? (a) foreach (string s in SL) Console.WriteLine(s.Key); (b) foreach (string s in SL.Keys) Console.WriteLine(SL[s]); (c) foreach (string s in SL) Console.WriteLine(s); (d) foreach (string s in SL.Keys) Console.WriteLine(s);
foreach (string s in SL) Console.WriteLine(s.Key);
foreach (string s in SL.Keys) Console.WriteLine(SL[s]);
foreach (string s in SL) Console.WriteLine(s);
foreach (string s in SL.Keys) Console.WriteLine(s);
8.8 In order to use the Sort methods supplied by built-in collection types, the element type must: (a) be a simple type (b) define the Equals method (c) define the CompareTo method (d) have reference semantics
8.9 If we have declared SortedList fruits = new SortedList(10), and we have inserted some Fruit type values into the list where each value consists of a fruit name (the key) and the colour of the fruit (the value), a statement to get a value for a lemon out of the list would be: (a) Fruit lemon = SortedList[lemon]; (b) Fruit lemon = SortedList["yellow"]; (c) Fruit lemon = (Fruit) fruits["lemon"]; (d) Fruit lemon = fruits["lemon"];
8.10 A valid declaration for an enumerated type for some planets would be: (a) type Planets = enum {Mercury, Mars, Venus, Earth}; (b) enum Planets = {Mercury, Mars, Venus, Earth} (c) enum Planets = {Mercury, Mars, Venus, Earth}; (d) enum Planets {Mercury, Mars, Venus, Earth}
