Ans: There are three types of error in Java:
i.Syntax Error ii.Runtime Error iii. Logical Error

Q.6 Assertion and Reasoning based question :

Assertion(A): Comments are executable statement in any programming language .
Reasoning(R): They make the program more informative for the user.
Based on the above discussion, choose the appropriate statement from the given option
given below :
(A) Both Assertion(A) and Reason(R) are true and Reason(R) is the correct explanation of
Assertion (A).
(B) Both Assertion(A) and Reason(R) are true and Reason(R) is not correct explanation of
Assertion (A).
(C) Assertion(A) is true and Reason(R) is false.
(D) Assertion(A) is false and Reason(R) is true

Q.7 Case study based question:

Scanner class is the latest development in java which allows the user to read values of
various data types. It is defined within a package that must be included in the program to
avail its inbuilt facilities . An object of scanner class must be created to accept the values of
a specific data types . One of the advantage of Scanner class over InputStreamReader is that
the values can be entered using less number of statements .
Based on the above discussion , answer the following questions:
(A) While designing Java program, the keyword _____________ is used to include the
package of scanner class.
i. Include ii. Import iii. Introduce iv. insert
(B) What will be filled in the statement given below ?
Scanner sc = ………………… Scanner (System.in)
i. Key ii. def iii. new iv. Scan
(C) Which of the following package will you use to avail scanner class?
i. Java.Utility ii. Java.util iii. Java.io iv. Java.scanner.class
(D)Which of the following statement is true for a scanner class?
i. It doesn’t accept float type values as an input.
ii.It accepts a word but not a sentence as an input.
iii.It doesn’t accept a single character as an input.
iv. It accepts numeric as well as alphanumeric values as an input.

Q.4 Answer the following

1. What are the different ways to give input in a Java Program?
Answer
Java provides the following ways to give input in a program:
1. Using Function Argument.
2. Using InputStreamReader class.
3. Using Scanner class.
4. Using Command Line Arguments.
2. What is the use of the keyword 'import' in Java programming?
Answer
import keyword is used to import built-in and user-defined packages into our Java program.

3. What is a Runtime error? Explain with an example.

Answer
Errors that occur during the execution of the program primarily due to the state of the
program which can only be resolved at runtime are called Runtime errors.
Consider the below example:
import java.util.Scanner;
class RunTimeError
{
public static void main(String args[]) {
Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.print("Enter a number: ");
int n = in.nextInt();
int result = 100 / n;
System.out.println("Result = " + result);
}
}
This program will work fine for all non-zero values of n entered by the user. When the user
enters zero, a run-time error will occur as the program is trying to perform an illegal
mathematical operation of division by 0. When we are compiling the program, we cannot say
if division by 0 error will occur or not. It entirely depends on the state of the program at run-
time.

4. What are the different types of errors that take place during the execution of a
program?
Answer
Logical errors and Run-Time errors occur during the execution of the program.

5. Distinguish between Syntax error and Logical error.

Answer

Syntax Errors Logical Errors

Syntax Errors occur when we violate the rules

Logical Errors occur due to our
of writing the statements of the programming
mistakes in programming logic.
language.

Program compiles and executes but

Program fails to compile and execute.
doesn't give the desired output.

Logic errors need to be found and

Syntax Errors are caught by the compiler. corrected by the people working on the
program.

Q.5 Unsolved Java programs:

1. In an election, there are two candidates X and Y. On the election day, 80% of the
voters go for polling, out of which 60% vote for X. Write a program to take the

long totalVoters = in.nextLong();
long votedVoters = Math.round(0.8 * totalVoters);
long xVotes = Math.round(0.6 * votedVoters);
long yVotes = votedVoters - xVotes;

4. The driver took a drive to a town 240 km at a speed of 60 km/h. Later in the
evening, he drove back at 20 km/h less than the usual speed. Write a program to
calculate:
1. the total time taken by the driver
2. the average speed during the whole journey
[Hint: average speed = total distance / total time]

Answer
public class Journey
{
public static void main(String args[]) {

int distance = 240;

float speed = 60.0f;
float returnSpeed = speed - 20;

float time2Reach = distance / speed;

float time2Return = distance / returnSpeed;
float totalTime = time2Reach + time2Return;
