Language Fundamentals

Which one of these lists contains only Java programming language keywords?
class, if, void, long, Int, continue
goto, instanceof, native, finally, default, throws
try, virtual, throw, final, volatile, transient
strictfp, constant, super, implements, do
byte, break, assert, switch, include
Answer: Option
Explanation:

All the words in option B are among the 49 Java keywords. Although goto reserved as a keyword in Java, goto is not used and has no function.

Option A is wrong because the keyword for the primitive int starts with a lowercase i.

Option C is wrong because "virtual" is a keyword in C++, but not Java.

Option D is wrong because "constant" is not a keyword. Constants in Java are marked static and final.

Option E is wrong because "include" is a keyword in C, but not in Java.

- Keywords are the words which already know to the compiler.
- In Java there are 49 keywords.
- Keywords also known as 'Reserve words'
- There are 51 'Reserve words' in Java.
- Every keyword is reserve word, but not every reserve word is not keyword
- 'Const' and 'goto' is Reserve word but not keywords.

Siva: finally is a keyword, used along with try block. It is an optional block. The purpose is to close any opened connections within the program for security.

@Tarun

You are wrong. Java has the keyword 'goto' (but not used).

Refer: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Java_keywords
