MULTIPLE CHOICE. Choose the one alternative that best completes the statement or answers the question.
 
1)  Assume that count is 0, total is 20 and max is 1. The following statement will do which of the following?
if (count != 0 && total / count > max) max = total / count; 		1)
  A)  The condition will not compile because it uses improper syntax
  B)  The condition short circuits and the assignment statement is not executed
  C)  The condition short circuits and the assignment statement is executed without problem
  D)  The condition short circuits so that there is no division by zero error when evaluating the condition, but the assignment statement causes a division by zero error
  E)  The condition does not short circuit causing a division by zero error

2)  What is wrong, logically, with the following code?
if (x > 10) System.out.println("Large");
else if (x > 6 && x <= 10) System.out.println("Medium");
else if (x > 3 && x <= 6) System.out.println("Small");
else System.out.println("Very small"); 		2)
  A)  The logical error is that no matter what value x is, "Large" is always printed out
  B)  There is nothing wrong with the logic at all
  C)  There is no logical error, but there is no need to have (x > 6) in the second conditional or (x > 3) in the third conditional

For the question(s) below, consider a class that stores 2 int values. These values can be assigned int values with the messages set1(x) and set2(x) where x is an int, and these values can be accessed through get1( ) and get2( ). Assume that y and z are two objects of this class. The following instructions are executed:
y.set1(5);
y.set2(6);
z.set1(3);
z.set2(y.get1( ));
y = z;

  B)  (y.get1( ) =  = z.get1( )) but (y.get2( ) != z.get2( ))
  C)  (y.get1( ) =  = z.get2( )) and (y.get2( ) =  = z.get1( )) but (y != z)
  D)  this statement causes a run-time error
  E)  (y.get1( ) =  = z.get1( )) and (y.get2( ) =  = z.get2( )) but (y != z)


27)  What is the value of z after the third statement executes below?

int z = a.incr( ); 		27)
  A)  12
  B)  6

  A)  0
  B)  1
  C)  3
  D)  4
  E)  There is no way to know since any of the objects might share x, but they do not necessarily share x

For the question(s) below, consider a class called Timer. This class would keep track of how much time has passed. Its constructor initializes a specific amount of time and will count down. It has methods getTime() and stopTime() which does much what it says.

  A)  public int comparable(Object cp)
  B)  public boolean comparable(Object cp)
  C)  public boolean compareTo(Object cp)
  D)  public int compareTo( )
  E)  public int compareTo(Object cp)

30)  Which of the following pieces of logic could be used in the method that implements Comparable? Assume that the method is passed Object a, which is really a Timer. (Take a guess, extra credit) 30)
  A)  return (time-this.getTime());
  B)  return (time-a.getTime());
  C)  return (time-(Timer)a.getTime());
  D)  return (time-((Timer)a).getTime());
  E)  All of the above would work.
