c) "Pro" d) Throws an exception

d) Interned strings cannot be garbage collected.
9) What will the following code print?

a) true b) false
c) Compile-time error d) Runtime exception

10) Which of the following statements about StringBuilder is incorrect?

a) StringBuilder is mutable.
b) StringBuilder is synchronized.
c) StringBuilder can be used when we need to modify strings frequently.
d) StringBuilder is faster than StringBuffer.

SOLUTIONS

Answer: 1 b) false

Explanation: The == operator compares the memory reference, not the content. s1 and s2 refer to
different objects in memory.

Answer: 2 c) "Hello".substring(1, 6)

Explanation: The string "Hello" has indices from 0 to 4. Attempting to use an index beyond 5 will
result in an exception.

Answer:3 b) "" (empty string)


Explanation: If the start and end index are the same, the substring method returns an empty string.

Explanation: The trim() method does not modify the original string, as strings are immutable. The
original string remains unchanged.

Answer: 4 c) Both a and b


Explanation: Both StringBuffer and StringBuilder are mutable, meaning they allow string
modifications without creating new objects.

Answer: 5 d) 8

Explanation: The search starts at index 3, and "cd" starts at index 2, so it is not found.

Answer: 6 c) compareToIgnoreCase()

Explanation: compareToIgnoreCase() compares two strings lexicographically, ignoring case


differences, unlike compareTo() which is case-sensitive.

Answer: 7 a) -1

Answer:8 b) String literals are automatically interned by the JVM.

Explanation: The JVM automatically interns string literals to improve memory efficiency, but using
new String() creates a new object that is not automatically interned.

Answer:9 b) false

Explanation: concat() creates a new string, but the + operator may result in a different memory
reference even if the content is the same.

Answer: 10 b) StringBuilder is synchronized.

Explanation: StringBuilder is not synchronized. StringBuffer is synchronized and is thread-safe, but


StringBuilder is faster in non-threaded contexts.
