Go back to Question 6

Answer 5

True. The JSONArray class provides two overloaded versions of the method named toJSONString . One is an instance method and the other is a static method. On a side note, this is also true of the class named JSONObject .

Answer 4

False. The code in Listing 2 produces the screen output shown in Figure 4 . Unlike an object of the JSONObject class, an object of the JSONArray class is an ordered list. By this we meanthat the user has precise control over where in the list each element is inserted. The user can access elements by their integer index (position in the list) .

Answer 3

False. The code in Listing 1 produces the screen output with the errors shown in Figure 2 . The JSONArray class neither defines nor inherits a method named put .

Go back to Question 3

Answer 2

False. The JSONArray class extends the ArrayList class, which implements the List interface. Therefore, an object of the JSONArray class is a list and is not an array. For example, the elements in a JSONArray object cannot be accessed using the square bracket ([]) notation commonly associated with Java arrays. Instead, the elements are accessed using the add and get methods declared in the List interface and inherited from the ArrayList class.
