13.
Is JApplet a subclass of Applet? Is Applet a subclass of
Container? Is Container a subclass of Component?

public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
System.out.println("Welcome to Java");
int i = 0;
int y = 2 / i;
System.out.println("Welcome to HTML");
}
finally {
System.out.println("The finally clause is executed");
}
System.out.println("End of the block");
}
}
16.
If a method does not declare throwing a RuntimeException, can it
throw a RuntimeException, or a subclass of RuntimeException?
Part III: Complete the following program
6
1. (5 pts) Write a program that passes an unspecified number of
integers as one command-line argument and displays their total.
For example, if you run the program using the following argument,
java Sum
“1 2 3”
The output is
Sum is 6.
2. (10 pts) Write a Java applet to add two numbers from text fields,
and displays the result in a non-editable text field. Enable your
applet to run standalone with a main method. A sample run of the
applet is shown in the following figure.

Part II: Questions: (1 pt each)
1. Suppose I1 is an interface, what is wrong in the following code?
public interface I1 implements I2 {
}
A: change implements to extends
17. Suppose A is an abstract class, what is wrong in the following code?
A[] list = new A[10];
list[0] = new A();
A: Since A is an abstract class, you cannot create an
instance from it directly using the new operator.
18. The following code has compilation errors, runtime error, or other problems, or no problems?
public class A {
public static void main(String args[]) {
int[] a = new int[10];
int[] c = new int[20];
a = c;
}
}
A: It is fine to assign c to a because both have the same
type.
8
19.
What is wrong in the following code?
Component[] list = new JButton[10];
list[0] = new JTextField();
A: list[0] is a JButton. You cannot assign a JTextField to
it. However, it would be fine if you assign new
JTextField[10] to list.
20.

A: new GridLayout(2, 3, 5, 5).
21.

A: new GridLayout(2, 3, 5, 5).
22.

A: g.drawLine(0, 0, getWidth(), getHeight()); g.drawLine(
getWidth(), 0, getHeight(), 0);
23.
What is wrong in the following code?
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) {
new Test();
}
public Test() {
JButton jbt = new JButton("OK");
jbt.addActionListener(this);
}
}
A: Test is not an instance of ActionListener. So,
9
jbt.addActionListener(this);
is wrong.
24.

JRadioButton jrbRed = new JRadioButton(“Red”);
JRadioButton jrbYellow = new JRadioButton(“Yellow”);
JRadioButton jrbGreen = new JRadioButton(“Green”);
ButtonGroup btg = new ButtonGroup();
btg.add(jrbRed); btg.add(jrbYellow); btg.add(jrbGreen);
25.
Create a combo box with items “Red”, “Yellow,” and “Green.”
JComboBox jcb = new JComboBox();
jcb.add(“Red”); jcb.add(“Yellow”); jcb.add(“Green”);
26.
Can a button fire a WindowEvent? Can a button fire a ComponentEvent?
A: button cannot fire a WindowEvent. A button can fire a
ComponentEvent.
