Section 13.3 Case Study: the Abstract Number Class
13.7
The java.lang.Number and its subclasses are introduced in Chapter 11. Analyze the following code.
Number numberRef =
new
Integer(
0
);
Double doubleRef = (Double)numberRef;
A.
There is no such class named Integer. You should use the class Int.
B.
The compiler detects that numberRef is not an instance of Double.
C.
A runtime class casting exception occurs, since numberRef is not an instance of Double.
D.
The program runs fine, since Integer is a subclass of Double.
E.
You can convert an int to double, so you can cast an Integer instance to a Double instance.
13.8
Analyze the following code.
Number[] numberArray =
new
Integer[
2
];
numberArray[
0
] =
new
Double(
1
.
5
);
A.
You cannot use Number as a data type since it is an abstract class.
B.
Since each element of numberArray is of the Number type, you cannot assign an Integer object to it.
C.
Since each element of numberArray is of the Number type, you cannot assign a Double object to it.
D.
At runtime, new Integer[2] is assigned to numberArray. This makes each element of numberArray an Integer object. So you cannot assign a Double object to it.
13.9
Analyze the following code.
public
class
Test {
public
static
void
main(String[] args) {
Number x =
new
Integer(
3
);
System.out.println(x.intValue());
System.out.println(x.compareTo(
new
Integer(
4
)));
}
}
A.
The program has a compile error because an Integer instance cannot be assigned to a Number variable.
B.
The program has a compile error because intValue is an abstract method in Number.
C.
The program has a compile error because x does not have the compareTo method.
D.
The program compiles and runs fine.
13.10
Analyze the following code.
public
class
Test {
public
static
void
main(String[] args) {
Number x =
new
Integer(
3
);
System.out.println(x.intValue());
System.out.println((Integer)x.compareTo(
new
Integer(
4
)));
}
}
A.
The program has a compile error because an Integer instance cannot be assigned to a Number variable.
B.
The program has a compile error because intValue is an abstract method in Number.
C.
The program has a compile error because x cannot be cast into Integer.
D.
The program has a compile error because the member access operator (.) is executed before the casting operator.
E.
The program compiles and runs fine.
13.11
Which of the following statements are correct?
A.
Integer i = 4.5;
B.
Double i = 4.5;
C.
Object i = 4.5;
D.

. calendars[
0
] =
new
Calendar();
6
. calendars[
1
] =
new
GregorianCalendar();
7
. }
8
. }
A.
The program has a compile error on Line 4 because java.util.Calendar is an abstract class.
B.
The program has a compile error on Line 5 because java.util.Calendar is an abstract class.
C.
The program has a compile error on Line 6 because Calendar[1] is not of a GregorianCalendar type.

13.30
The Rational class in this chapter extends java.lang.Number and implements java.lang.Comparable. Analyze the following code.
1
.
public
class
Test {
2
.
public
static
void
main(String[] args) {
3
. Number[] numbers = {
new

Double(
5
.
6
)};
4
. java.util.Arrays.sort(numbers);
5
. }
6
. }
A.
The program has a compile error because numbers is declared as Number[], so you cannot assign {new Rational(1, 2), new Integer(4), new Double(5.6)} to it.
B.
The program has a runtime error because numbers is declared as Number[], so you cannot assign {new Rational(1, 2), new Integer(4), new Double(5.6)} to it.
