TRUE/FALSE
The word import in a Java program is a reserved word.
T
JOptionPane uses an instance method to get keyboard input from the user. F
The Java Virtual Machine is responsible for executing Java byte code. T
The contents of a variable cannot be changed during runtime, only while the code is compiling. F
Program code can only have one execution path(flow). F
Because the || operator performs short-circuit evaluation, your boolean expression will generally be
evaluated faster if the subexpression that is most likely to be true is on the left. T
7. When two Strings are compared using the equals method, their case is important. T
8. The if/else statement will execute one group of statements if its boolean expression is true or
another group if its boolean expression is false. T
9. Suppose we have the following declarations: F
int i = 4, j = 1;
The expression, (i *(j / i) ) == 1, evaluates True or False?
10. In nested if statements, if the inner if statement evaluates to false, the outer if is automatically false. F

1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
final int x = 5;
the assignment expression
x += 3;
will change variable x’s value to 3 only if 3 is greater than its current value. F
12. Java runs differently on different CPU architectures. F
13. In computers, data stored in binary form is represented as a series of 0s and 1s.
T
14. The following statement is valid:
double xyz = 4,867.50; F
15. It doesn’t matter where you declare the variables, as long as they are somewhere in the program. F
