* Understanding Constructors vs. Methods in Java
* In Java, aconstructormustnot have a return type.
* The followingis NOT a constructorbut aregular method:
java
void Versailles() { // This is NOT a constructor!
* Correct way to define a constructor:
java
public Versailles() { // Constructor must not have a return type
* Since there isno constructor explicitly defined,Java provides a default no-argument constructor, which does nothing.
* Why Does Compilation Fail?
* void Versailles() is interpreted as amethod,not a constructor.
* This means the default constructor (which does nothing) is called.
* Since the method Versailles() is never called, the object fields remain uninitialized.
* If the constructor were correctly defined, the output would be:
nginx
Hall of Mirrors has 17 mirrors.
The gardens cover 800 hectares.
* How to Fix It
java
public Versailles() { // Corrected constructor
this.mirrorsCount = 17;
this.gardensHectares = 800;
System.out.println("Hall of Mirrors has " + mirrorsCount + " mirrors."); System.out.println("The gardens cover " + gardensHectares + " hectares.");
}
Thus, the correct answer is:Compilation fails at line n1.

In this scenario, we have a Person class that extends ListResourceBundle and a properties file named Person.
properties. Both define a resource with the key "name" but with different values:
* Person class (ListResourceBundle):Defines the key "name" with the value "Jeanne".
* Person.properties file:Defines the key "name" with the value "James".
When the ResourceBundle.getBundle("Person") method is called, the Java runtime searches for a resource bundle with the base name "Person". The search order is as follows:
* Class-Based Resource Bundle:The runtime first looks for a class named Person (i.e., Person.class).
* Properties File Resource Bundle:If the class is not found, it then looks for a properties file named Person.properties.
In this case, since the Person class is present and accessible, the runtime will load the Person class as the resource bundle. Therefore, the getBundle method returns an instance of the Person class.
Subsequently, when bundle.getString("name") is called, it retrieves the value associated with the key "name" from the Person class, which is "Jeanne".
Thus, the output of the program is:
nginx
Jeanne

The Java Platform Module System (JPMS), introduced in Java 9, modularizes the Java platform and applications. Understanding the behavior of named and unnamed modules is crucial.
* B. The unnamed module exports all of its packages.
Correct. The unnamed module, which includes all code on the classpath, exports all of its packages. This means that any code can access the public types in these packages. However, the unnamed module cannot be explicitly required by named modules.
* C. If a package is defined in both a named module and the unnamed module, then the package in the unnamed module is ignored.
Correct. In cases where a package is present in both a named module and the unnamed module, the version in the named module takes precedence. The package in the unnamed module is ignored to maintain module integrity and avoid conflicts.
* F. If a request is made to load a type whose package is not defined in any known module, then the module system will attempt to load it from the classpath.
Correct. When the module system cannot find a requested type in any known module, it defaults to searching the classpath (i.e., the unnamed module) to locate the type.
Incorrect Options:
* A. Code in an explicitly named module can access types in the unnamed module.
Incorrect. Named modules cannot access types in the unnamed module. The unnamed module can read from named modules, but the reverse is not allowed to ensure strong encapsulation.
* D. We must add a module descriptor to make an application developed using a Java version prior to SE9 run on Java 11.
Incorrect. Adding a module descriptor (module-info.java) is not mandatory for applications developed before Java 9 to run on Java 11. Such applications can run in the unnamed module without modification.
* E. The unnamed module can only access packages defined in the unnamed module.
Incorrect. The unnamed module can access all packages exported by all named modules, in addition to its own packages.

* Understanding ArrayDeque Behavior
* ArrayDeque<E>is a double-ended queue (deque), working as aFIFO (queue) and LIFO (stack).
* Thedefault behaviorisqueue-like (FIFO)unless explicitly used as a stack.
* Step-by-Step Execution
java
var deque = new ArrayDeque<>();
deque.add(1);
deque.add(2);
deque.add(3);
deque.add(4);
deque.add(5);
* Deque after additions# [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
* Operations Breakdown
* deque.peek()# Returns thehead(first element)without removal.
makefile
Output: 1
* deque.poll()# Removes and returns thehead.
go
Output: 1, Deque after poll # `[2, 3, 4, 5]`
* deque.pop()#Same as removeFirst(); removes and returns thehead.
perl
Output: 2, Deque after pop # `[3, 4, 5]`
* deque.element()# Returns thehead(same as peek(), but throws an exception if empty).
makefile
Output: 3
* Final Output
1 1 2 3
Thus, the correct answer is:1 1 2 3

In Java, the ConcurrentHashMap class provides several constructors that allow for the customization of its initial capacity, load factor, and concurrency level. To configure a ConcurrentHashMap with an initial capacity of 42 and a concurrency level of 10, you can use the following constructor:
java
public ConcurrentHashMap(int initialCapacity, float loadFactor, int concurrencyLevel) Parameters:
* initialCapacity: The initial capacity of the hash table. This is the number of buckets that the hash table will have when it is created. In this case, it is set to 42.
* loadFactor: A measure of how full the hash table is allowed to get before it is resized. The default value is 0.75, but in this case, it is set to 0.88.
* concurrencyLevel: The estimated number of concurrently updating threads. This is used as a hint for internal sizing. In this case, it is set to 10.
Therefore, to create a ConcurrentHashMap with an initial capacity of 42, a load factor of 0.88, and a concurrency level of 10, you can use the following code:
java
var concurrentHashMap = new ConcurrentHashMap<>(42, 0.88f, 10);
Option Evaluations:
* A. var concurrentHashMap = new ConcurrentHashMap(42);: This constructor sets the initial capacity to 42 but uses the default load factor (0.75) and concurrency level (16). It does not meet the requirement of setting the concurrency level to 10.
* B. None of the suggestions.: This is incorrect because option E provides the correct configuration.
* C. var concurrentHashMap = new ConcurrentHashMap();: This uses the default constructor, which sets the initial capacity to 16, the load factor to 0.75, and the concurrency level to 16. It does not meet the specified requirements.
* D. var concurrentHashMap = new ConcurrentHashMap(42, 10);: This constructor sets the initial capacity to 42 and the load factor to 10, which is incorrect because the load factor should be a float value between 0 and 1.
* E. var concurrentHashMap = new ConcurrentHashMap(42, 0.88f, 10);: This correctly sets the initial capacity to 42, the load factor to 0.88, and the concurrency level to 10, meeting all the specified requirements.
Therefore, the correct answer is option E.
