12.
Which three are valid declarations of a float?
  1. float f1 = -343;
  2. float f2 = 3.14;
  3. float f3 = 0x12345;
  4. float f4 = 42e7;
  5. float f5 = 2001.0D;
  6. float f6 = 2.81F;
1, 2, 4
2, 3, 5
1, 3, 6
2, 4, 6
Answer: Option
Explanation:

(1) and (3) are integer literals (32 bits), and integers can be legally assigned to floats (also 32 bits). (6) is correct because (F) is appended to the literal, declaring it as a float rather than a double (the default for floating point literals).

(2), (4),and (5) are all doubles.

13.
Which is a valid declarations of a String?
String s1 = null;
String s2 = 'null';
String s3 = (String) 'abc';
String s4 = (String) '\ufeed';
Answer: Option
Explanation:

Option A sets the String reference to null.

Option B is wrong because null cannot be in single quotes.

Option C is wrong because there are multiple characters between the single quotes ('abc').

Option D is wrong because you can't cast a char (primitive) to a String (object).

14.
What is the numerical range of a char?
-128 to 127
-(215) to (215) - 1
0 to 32767
0 to 65535
Answer: Option
Explanation:
A char is really a 16-bit integer behind the scenes, so it supports 216 (from 0 to 65535) values.
