True. The code in Listing 3 uses the get method inherited from the HashMap class to get and display the values associated with the keys "name", "age", and "student".

Go back to Question 3

Answer 2

False. The code in Listing 1 produced the output with the compiler error message shown in Figure 2 . The output shown in in Figure 1 was produced by the code shown in Listing 2 . Note the call to the toJSONString method of the JSONObject class to extract the information from the JSONObject object and encode it into a JSON string.

Go back to Question 2

Answer 1

True. The class named JSONObject extends the standard Java class named HashMap . Therefore, the JSONObject class inherits all of the methods defined in the HashMap class.
