Question 9

True or False? When a method receives an incoming parameter as type Collection, the method can call (on the reference to the Collection object) any of the methods declared in the Collection interface, with confidence that the behavior of the method will be appropriate for the actual type of Collection object involved. (That is polymorphic behavior.)

Answer 9

Question 10

True or False? The Iterator interface is one of the core collection interfaces.

Answer 10

Question 11

True or False? The core collection interfaces are shown below, with indentation showing the superinterface-subinterface relationships among the interfaces.

  • Collection
    • Set
      • SortedSet
    • List
    • Queue
    • Deque
  • Map
    • SortedMap

Answer 11
