    This document contains solutions to quiz questions about arrays in Java. It explains: 1) The values stored in a sample int array of length 7 and that values[3] would return 2. 2) That the length operator on the array would return its size, which is 7. 3) That to adequately loop through and add 1 to each element, the for loop should go from index 0 to the array length. 4) That trying to access values[7] would cause an ArrayOutOfBoundsException as it exceeds the array size. 5) That the proper way to declare and instantiate an array of 10 Strings is String[] s = new String[10].

    Quiz 05 - Solution
    For questions 1-4, assume values is an int array with size 7, that is currently filled with the
    following values:
    9

    12

    18

    1) What is returned by values[3]?


    a) 9 b) 12

    c) 2

    d) 6

    e) 3

    Answer: c. Explanation: Java array indices start at 0, so values[3] is really the fourth array
    element, which is 2.
    2) What is the value of values.length?
    a) 0 b) 5 c) 6

    d) 7

    e) 18

    Answer: d. Explanation: The length operator for an array returns the size of the array. The
    above picture shows that that values stores 7 elements and since it is full, the size of values is 7.
    3) Which of the following loops would adequately add 1 to each element stored in values?
    a) for (j=1; j<values.length; j++) values[j]++;
    b)

    for (j=0; j<values.length; j++) values[j]++;

    c) for (j=0; j<=values.length; j++) values[j]++;


    d) for (j=0; j<values.length1; j++) values[j]++;
    e) for (j=1; j<values.length1; j++) values[j]++;
    Answer: b. Explanation: The first array element is values[0], so the for-loop must start at 0, not
    1. There are values.length elements in the array where the last element is at values.length1, so
    the for loop must stop before reaching values.length. This is the case in b. In d, the for loop
    stops 1 before values.length since < is being used to test the condition instead of <=.
    4) The statement System.out.println(values[7]); will
    a) output 7
    b) output 18
    c) output nothing
    d)

    cause an ArrayOutOfBoundsException to be thrown

    e) cause a syntax error


    Answer: d. Explanation: The array has 7 values, but these are indexed values[0] to values[6].
    Since values[7] is beyond the bounds of the array, values[7] causes an
    ArrayOutOfBoundsException to be thrown.

    5) Which of the following is a legal way to declare and instantiate an array of 10 Strings?
    a) String s = new String(10);
    b) String[10] s = new String;
    c)

    String[ ] s = new String[10];

    d) String s = new String[10];


    e) String[ ] s = new String;
    Answer: c. Explanation: Declaring an array is done by type[ ] variable. Instantiating the array
    is done by variable = new type[dimension] where dimension is the size of the array.
