Answers

Answer 10

True. An object of the JSONObject class extends the HashMap class and implements the Map interface. According to the Oracle documentation, "The order of a map is defined as the order in which the iterators on the map's collection views return theirelements. Some map implementations, like the TreeMap class, make specific guarantees as to their order; others, like the HashMap class, do not."

Answer 9

False. The JSONObject class implements the Map interface. According to the Oracle documentation, "A map cannot contain duplicate keys; each key can map to at most one value."

Go back to Question 9

Answer 8

True. JSON documentation often speaks of name/value pairs. However, the JSONObject class extends the standard Java HashMap class, which implements the Map interface. According to the Oracle Java documentation, an object that implements the Map interface is "An object that maps keys to values." Therefore, it is probably acceptable to use the terms name/value and key/value interchangeably.

Answer 7

False. The JSONObject class extends the standard Java HashMap class.

Go back to Question 7

Answer 6

True.

Go back to Question 6

Answer 5

False. Because the JSONArray class extends the ArrayList class, which implementsthe List interface, it is "An ordered collection (also known as a sequence). The user of this interface 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), and search for elements in the list."

Go back to Question 5

Answer 4

True. The JSONArray class extends the standard ArrayList class, which implements the List interface.

Go back to Question 4

Answer 3

True.

Go back to Question 3

Answer 2
