Q21. In context of OOP, what is association?

  • Association is a relationship where all objects have their own life cycle and there is no owner.
  • Association is the process where model elements cooperate to provide higher-level behavior.
  • Association is whole/part relationship where one object is composed of one or more other objects, each of which is considered a part of the whole.
  • Association is where all objects have their own life cycle, but there is ownerhip, and child objects can not belong to another parent object.

Q22. How are user stories different from use cases?

  • User Stories are shorter and less detailed.
  • User stories are more accurate.
  • User stories are more detailed and structured.

Q23. Which type of inheritance must be used so that the resultant is hybrid?

  • multiple
  • any type of inheritance
  • multilevel
  • hierarchical
- Single Inheritance is where a derived class inherits properties and behaviour from a single base class. Example: Class A → Class B.
- Hierarchical Inheritance is where more than one derived class is created from a single base class. Example: Class A → Class B → Class C.
- Multiple Inheritance is for deriving a class from multiple base classes. Here, the child objects programmers create will have combined aspects of characteristics and features from multiple parent classes. These objects do follow their hierarchies of base classes.
- Multilevel Inheritance is where a child class is derived from another derived class. This feature carries combined aspects of multiple classes and follows their hierarchies.
- Hybrid Inheritance is a heterogeneous feature of using multiple inheritances. Here a child class is derived from one or more combinations of single, hierarchical, and multilevel inheritances. This inheritance is adopted for programs to mix different types of inheritance; for example, when mixing a single inheritance with multiple inheritances or maybe a situation when multiple inheritances are mixed within a single program.

Q70. What is the difference between a parameter and an argument?

  • An argument can have many values while a parameter can have only one value.
  • An argument is the variable used for input values in a method. A parameter is the specific input value passed to the method.
  • A parameter is a variable in the declaration of a function. An argument is the value of this variable that gets passed to the function.
  • Parameters and arguments are the same

Q71. What is the scope of a class nested inside another class?

  • Protected scope
  • Private scope
  • Global scope

  • The dynamic variables can assume only limited values
  • Storage is fixed for dynamic variables
  • Static variables are more flexible than dynamic variables

Q83. What is the difference between early binding and late binding?

  • Early binding is when a variable is assigned a value when the program starts. Late binding is when a variable is assigned after the program is running
  • There is no difference. In both cases, variables are assigned values when a program has completed startup and is running
  • Early binding is when a variable is assigned its value at compile time. Late binding is when a variable is assigned a value at run time

Q85. What parameters are required to be passed to a class constructor?

Here they haven't mentioned any specific language so let's consider all languages.

  • reference to subclass // References to subclass are never required as you can simply Initialize subclass & use their object.
  • reference to base class // References to the base class are not required in Java, Javascript & Python
  • reference to this pointer // While Python & Javascript may require passing this or self in the constructor, It is not passed in Java constructor.
  • none // Above 3 are incorrect so "none" is the answer

  • Software entities should be open for extension, but closed for modification.
  • Many client-specific interfaces are better than one general-purpose interface.
  • objects in a program should be replaceable with instances of their subtypes without altering the correctness of that program.

Q103. If a language just implements pass-by-value parameters to functions, can the objects passed as parameters be set to new instances inside the function and their new value will return to the caller?

  • Yes, but only if it is a reference and not a primitive class.
  • Yes, since the value is a reference even though it is passed by value, it can be done.
  • No, you will get a compilation error.
