COMPUTER APPLICATIONS

SECTION A (40 Marks)
Attempt all questions

Question 1. [2 marks each]

(a) Define Encapsulation.
(b) What are keywords? Give an example. 
(c) Name any two library packages. 
(d) Name the type of error ( syntax, runtime or logical error ) in each case given below:
         (i) Math.sqrt (36 – 45)
         (ii) int a;b;c;
(e) If int x [ ] = { 4, 3 , 7, 8, 9, 10}; what are the values of p and q?
           (i) p = x.length
           (ii) q= x[2] + x[5] * x[1]
Ans.
(a) The wrapping up of data and functions (that operate on the data) into a single unit( called class) is known as encapsulation
                                     OR
It is the way of combining both data and the functions that operate on that data under a single unit.
(b) Keywords are the words that convey a special meaning to the language Compiler. These are reserved for special purpose and must not be used as normal identifiers.

      (ii) Syntax error
(e) (i ) 6
      (ii) 37

Question 2. [2 marks each]

(b) What are the types of casting shown by the following examples:
          (i) char c = (char)120;
          (ii) int x = ‘t’;
(c) Differentiate between formal parameter and actual parameter.
(d) Write a function prototype of the following :
A function PosChar which takes a string argument and a character argument and returns an integer value.
(e) Name any two types of access specifiers. 
Ans.
(a) == is an operator which is used to check the equality between primitive data type equals () function checks the equality between Strings
(b) (i) explicit type casting
       (ii) implicit type casting

}

(g)

Primitive Data TypeComposite data types.
Data types that are provided by Java are called primitive typesData types created by programmers which make use of primitive type to create a variable as per the user’s requirement are called non-primitive or composite data types.
The size is fixed.The size depends on the number of member variables and their types.
When a variable of primitive data type is defined only one memory location is allocatedWhen an object(variable) of class type is defined the memory allocated will vary.
To create a variable of primitive type ‘new’ keyword is not used.To create an object variable we make use of ‘new’ keyword.

(h) m = 5
       10 Loop is executed 3 times
(i) a = 7 + 7 + 9 + 8 + 8 = 39
(j) boolean and String

Question 6. [15 marks]

Special words are those words which starts and ends with the same letter.
Examples:
       EXISTENCE
       COMIC
       WINDOW
Palindrome words are those words which read the same from left to right and vice-versa
Examples:
       MALAYALAM
       MADAM
       LEVEL
       ROTATOR
       CIVIC
All palindromes are special words, but all special words are not palindromes. Write a program to accept a word check and print whether the word is a palindrome or only special word.
Ans. 

import java .util.*;
class ques6
{
public static void main (String s[])//throws IOException
{
Scanner obj = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println(" enter a word ");
String word = obj.nextLine();
String rword="";
int l,x;
l= word.length();
for(x=l-1;x>=0;x--)
rword = rword+ word.charAt(x);
if(word.equals(rword))
System.out.println( word +" is palindrome");
else
if(word.charAt(0) == word.charAt(l-1))
System.out.println( word +"is a special word");
}
}

Question 7. [15 marks]

(i) void SumSeries(int n, double x) – with one integer argument and one double argument to find and display the sum of the series given below :
s = x/1 – x/2 + x/3 – x/4 + x/5… to n terms

(ii) void SumSeries() – To find and display the sum of the following series :
             s = 1 + (1 × 2) + (1 × 2 × 3)+. … + (1 × 2 × 3 × 4 …  × 20)
Ans. 

import java.util.*;
class Q7 {
void SumSeries(int n, double x) {
double sum=0.0d;
int i;
for(i=1;i<=n;i++)
{ if (i%2==0 )
sum=sum-x/(double)i;
else
sum=sum+x/(double)i; }
System.out.println("sum="+sum);
}
void SumSeries() {
int s=0, p=1;
for(int i=1;i<=20;i++) {
p=p*i;
s=s+p; }
System.out.println("sum="+s);

public static void main(String args[]) {
Q7 obj=new Q7();
obj.SumSeries(5,2.0);
obj.SumSeries();
}
}
}

Question 8. [15 marks]

Write a program to accept a number and check and display whether it is a Niven number or not. (Niven number is that number which is divisible by its sum of digits).
Example :
      Consider the number 126.
      Sum of its digits is 1+2+6 = 9 and 126 is divisible by 9.
Ans. 

import java.util.*;
class Niven
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
Scanner sc =new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("enter number");
int num=sc.nextInt( );
int n=num;
int rem;
int sum=0;
while(num>0)
{
rem=num%10;
sum=sum+rem;
num=num/10;
}
if(n%sum==0)
System.out.println("Niven number");
else
System.out.println("not Niven Number");
}
}

Question 9. [15 marks]

Write a program to initialize the seven Wonders of the World along with their locations in two different arrays. Search for a name of the country input by the user. If found, display the name of the country along with its Wonder, otherwise display “Sorry Not Found!”.
Seven wonders – CHICHEN ITZA, CHRIST THE REDEEMER, TAJMAHAL, GREAT WALL OF CHINA, MACHU PICCHU, PETRA, COLOSSEUM
Locations – MEXICO, BRAZIL, INDIA, CHINA, PERU, JORDAN, ITALY
Example – Country Name : INDIA Output : INDIA – TAJMAHAL Country Name : USA Output : Sorry Not Found!
Ans. 

import java.util.*;
class wonders

String w[]={"CHICHEN ITZA","CHRIST THE REDEEMER", "TAJMAHAL", "GREATWALL OF CHINA","MACHU PICCHU","PETRA","COLOSSEUM"};
String l[]={"MEXICO","BRAZIL","INDIA","CHINA","PERU","JORDAN","ITALY"};
String s;int i,len;
Scanner br=new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Enter the name of the country to be searched for " );
s=br.nextLine();
len=w.length; // OR len = l.length;
boolean flag=false;
for (i=0;i<len;i++) // OR for( i=0;i<7;i++)
{
if(s.equalsIgnoreCase(l[i]))
{
System.out.println(l[i]+" - "+ w[i]);
flag =true; break;
