Class 10 - ICSE Computer Applications Solved Question Papers

Section A

Question 1(i)

Return data type of isLetter(char) is ............... .

  1. Boolean
  2. boolean
  3. bool
  4. char

Answer

boolean

Reason — isLetter() method returns true if the specified character is a letter else, it returns false. Thus, the return data type of isLetter(char) is boolean.

Question 1(ii)

Method that converts a character to uppercase is ............... .

  1. toUpper()
  2. ToUpperCase()
  3. toUppercase()
  4. toUpperCase(char)

Answer

toUpperCase(char)

Reason — Method that converts a character to uppercase is toUpperCase(char) method.

Question 1(iii)

Give output of the following String methods:

"SUCESS".indexOf('S') + "SUCCESS".lastIndexOf('S')

  1. 0
  2. 5
  3. 6
  4. -5

Answer

6

Reason — indexOf() returns the index of the first occurrence of the specified character within the string and lastIndexOf() returns the index of the last occurrence of the specified character within the string. Since a string begins with index 0, the given methods are evaluated as follows:

"SUCESS".indexOf('S') + "SUCCESS".lastIndexOf('S')
⇒ 0 + 6
⇒ 6

Question 1(iv)

Corresponding wrapper class of float data type is ............... .

  1. FLOAT
  2. float
  3. Float
  4. Floating

Answer

Float

Reason — Corresponding wrapper class of float data type is Float.

Question 1(v)

............... class is used to convert a primitive data type to its corresponding object.

  1. String
  2. Wrapper
  3. System
  4. Math

Answer

Wrapper

Reason — Wrapper class is used to convert a primitive data type to its corresponding object.

Question 1(vi)

Give the output of the following code:

System.out.println("Good".concat("Day"));

  1. GoodDay
  2. Good Day
  3. Goodday
  4. goodDay

Answer

GoodDay

Reason — concat() method is used to join two strings. Thus, "Good" and "Day" are joined together and printed as "GoodDay".

Question 1(vii)

A single dimensional array contains N elements. What will be the last subscript?

  1. N
  2. N - 1
  3. N - 2
  4. N + 1

Answer

N - 1

Reason — The index of an array begins from 0 and continues till Size - 1. Thus, if an array has N elements, the last subscript/index will be N - 1.

Question 1(viii)

The access modifier that gives least accessibility is:

  1. private
  2. public
  3. protected
  4. package

Answer

private

Reason — A data member or member method declared as private is only accessible inside the class in which it is declared. Thus, it gives the least accessibility.

Question 1(ix)

Give the output of the following code :

String A = "56.0", B = "94.0";
double C = Double.parseDouble(A); 
double D = Double.parseDouble(B); 
System.out.println((C+D));
  1. 100
  2. 150.0
  3. 100.0
  4. 150

Answer

150.0

Reason — parseDouble() method returns a double value represented by the specified string. Thus, double values 56.0 and 94.0 are stored in C and D, respectively. Both C and D are added and 150.0 (56.0 + 94.0) is printed on the screen.

Question 1(x)

What will be the output of the following code?

System.out.println("Lucknow".substring(0,4));

  1. Lucknow
  2. Luckn
  3. Luck
  4. luck

Answer

Luck

Reason — The substring() method returns a substring beginning from the startindex and extending to the character at index endIndex - 1. Since a string index begins at 0, the character at startindex (0) is 'L' and the character at the endIndex (4-1 = 3) is 'k'. Thus, "Luck" is extracted and printed on the screen.

Section B

Question 2

Define a class to perform binary search on a list of integers given below, to search for an element input by the user, if it is found display the element along with its position, otherwise display the message "Search element not found".

        int arr[] = {2, 5, 7, 10, 15, 20, 29, 30, 46, 50};
        
        System.out.print("Enter number to search: ");
        int n = in.nextInt();
        
        int l = 0, h = arr.length - 1, index = -1;
        while (l <= h) {
            int m = (l + h) / 2;
            if (arr[m] < n)
                l = m + 1;
            else if (arr[m] > n)
                h = m - 1;
            else {
                index = m;
                break;
            }
                
        }
        
        if (index == -1) {
            System.out.println("Search element not found");
        }
        else {
            System.out.println(n + " found at position " + index);

        int len = ch.length;
        
        System.out.println("Enter 10 characters:");
        for (int i = 0; i < len; i++)
        {
            ch[i] = in.nextLine().charAt(0);
        }
        
        char h = ch[0];
        char l = ch[0];
        
        for (int i = 1; i < len; i++)
        {
            if (ch[i] > h)
            {
                h = ch[i];
            }
            
            if (ch[i] < l)
            {
                l = ch[i];
            }
        }

        System.out.println("Character with highest ASCII value: " + h);
