Preface

This module is one in a collection of modules on Java Collections designed for teaching ITSE2321 - Object-Oriented Programming (Java) at Austin Community College in Austin, TX.

This module contains review questions and answers keyed to the module titled Java4040: Purpose of Framework Implementations and Algorithms .

Once you study that module, you should be able to answer the review questions in this module.

The questions and the answers in this module are connected by hyperlinks to make it easy for you to navigate from the question to the answer and back again.

Questions

Question 1 .

True or False? At least three things are included in the Java Collections Framework:

  • interfaces
  • implementations
  • algorithms

Answer 1

Question 2

True or False? The Collections Framework provides at least nine concrete implementations of the interfaces in the framework.

Answer 2

Question 3

True or False? The implementations in the Java Collections Framework are the concrete definitions of the classes that implement the core collection interfaces .

Answer 3

Question 4

True or False? Concrete implementations in the Java Collections Framework are provided by at least the following classes.

  • HashSet
  • TreeSet
  • LinkedList
  • ArrayList
  • Vector
  • HashMap
  • WeakHashMap
  • TreeMap
  • Hashtable
  • Iterator

Answer 4

Question 5

True or False? Algorithms are methods (not necessarily exposed) that provide useful capabilities, such as searching and sorting.

Answer 5

Question 6

True or False? The contract for the contains method requires that the method:

  • receives an incoming reference of type Object as a parameter
  • searches the collection looking for an element that matches the incoming reference
  • returns false if the collection on which the method is called contains the specified element and returns true otherwise.

Answer 6

Question 7

True or False? You can safely call the contains method on any object instantiated from a class that properly implements the Collection interface, even if you don't know the actual type of the collection object.

Answer 7

Question 8

True or False? When you call the contains method on a Collection object, the manner in which the search will be performed will be the same regardless of the class from which the object wasinstantiated.

Answer 8

Question 9

The program shown in Listing 1 will be used for several different questions.

Listing 1 . Used for several questions.

Suppose hydrogen and oxygen are diffusing through air. A small amount of each is released simultaneously. How much time passes before the hydrogen is 1.00 s ahead of the oxygen? Such differences in arrival times are used as an analytical tool in gas chromatography.
