Algorithms and Data Structures (M)

SAMPLE EXAM

This exam is multiple-choice and contains 25 questions ((i)-(xxv)). You should select one answer (a, b, c, d) for each question. Each correct answer is worth 2 marks. Incorrect answers will result in a penalty of two thirds of a mark to discourage guessing. A negative mark overall for this question will be rounded up to zero.

(c) size()

(d) getSize()

(iii) You can use a for-each loop to traverse all elements in a container object that implements which of the following interfaces?

(a) Iterator

(b) Collection

(c) Iterable

(d) ArrayList

(iv) If list is a LinkedList that contains 1 million int values and A and B are the following fragments of code:

A:

for (int i = 0; i < list.size(); i++)

sum += list.get(i);

for (int i: list)

sum += i;

(c) After all the four entries are added to the map, "Steve Price" is a key that corresponds to the value "222"
