Java Constructors Quiz

Test your understanding of Java constructors with this quiz. Each question has four possible answers, but only one is correct. Good luck!

Questions

  1. What is the primary purpose of a constructor in Java? A. To execute code whenever an object of a class is created
    B. To create static methods in a class
    C. To inherit properties from another class
    D. To define variables within a class

  2. Which of the following statements about constructors is true?
    A. A constructor can return a value
    B. A constructor cannot have parameters
    C. A constructor name must match the class name
    D. A constructor is called explicitly by the programmer

  3. What is a default constructor?
    A. A constructor with parameters
    B. A constructor that initializes objects with specific values
    C. A constructor that does not take any parameters
    D. A constructor that is private

  4. If a class does not explicitly define a constructor, what type of constructor does Java provide automatically?
    A. No constructor
    B. A default constructor
    C. A parameterized constructor
    D. A static constructor

  5. What happens if a class defines a constructor with parameters?
    A. The class cannot have a default constructor
    B. The class will automatically get a default constructor
    C. The class can only have one constructor
    D. The class will throw a compilation error

  6. Which of the following is a way to call a constructor of a parent class?
    A. super()
    B. this()
    C. parent()
    D. callParent()

  7. What is the output when an object of a class is created without providing arguments for a parameterized constructor?
    A. The default values are assigned
    B. A compilation error occurs
    C. It calls the default constructor
    D. It creates an object with null values

  8. How can you create a constructor that initializes variables in a class?
    A. By using methods only
    B. By using the new keyword
    C. By defining parameters in the constructor
    D. By using static variables

  9. In which scenarios is it recommended to use overloaded constructors?
    A. When all constructors have the same parameter list
    B. When there are different ways to initialize an object
    C. When you want to restrict object creation
    D. When no constructors are defined

  10. What will happen if you do not call super() in a subclass constructor?
    A. The program will crash
    B. The default constructor of the parent class is called automatically
    C. The object will not be created
    D. You will need to manually call this()

  11. Which of the following keywords is used to refer to the current object in the constructor?
    A. current
    B. self
    C. this
    D. me

  12. If you want to create a constructor that only initializes some attributes of a class, what should you do?
    A. Create multiple classes
    B. Use default values for uninitialized attributes
    C. Write a method after the constructor
    D. Leave those attributes out of the constructor

  13. Which of the following is a characteristic of constructors in Java?
    A. Constructors cannot be overloaded
    B. Constructors can access private fields of the class
    C. Constructors can only be public
    D. Constructors cannot contain any logic

  14. What happens if you explicitly define a default constructor in a class that already has other constructors?
    A. Only the parameterized constructors are available
    B. The default constructor will still be available
    C. The default constructor must be private
    D. The class will not compile

  15. What is the result of trying to instantiate an abstract class?
    A. An instance is created
    B. An abstract object is created
    C. It causes a run-time error
    D. It results in a compilation error

    A. Private constructor
    B. Parameterized constructor
    C. No-arg constructor

    B. Calling one constructor from another constructor
    C. Creating multiple objects from one constructor
    D. Nesting constructors

  18. What is the significance of the this keyword in a constructor?
    A. It creates a reference to the parameter
    B. It allows method overloading
    C. It refers to the class itself
    D. It refers to the current object instance

  19. Consider the following definition: MyClass(int x) { this.x = x; } - what does this.x refer to?
    A. The static variable x
    B. The parameter x passed to the constructor
    C. An instance variable x of the class MyClass
    D. None of the above

  20. What does it mean if a constructor is declared as private?
    A. The constructor cannot be accessed from any class
    B. The constructor can only be accessed within the class itself
    C. The constructor can be accessed by subclasses
    D. The constructor is not invoked during the object creation
