This set of Object Oriented Programming (OOPs) Multiple

Choice Questions & Answers (MCQs) focuses on “Access
Specifiers”.
1. How many types of access specifiers are provided in

OOP (C++)?
a) 1
b) 2
c) 3
d) 4
View Answer
Answer: c
Explanation: Only 3 types of access specifiers are available.
Namely, private, protected and public. All these three can
be used according to the need of security of members.
2. Which among the following can be used together in a

single class?
a) Only private
1 of 8 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
b) Private and Protected together

c) Private and Public together
d) All three together
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: All the classes can use any of the specifiers as
needed. There is no restriction on how many of them can
be used together.
3. Which among the following can restrict class members to

get inherited?
a) Private
b) Protected
c) Public
d) All three
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: Private members of a class can’t be inherited.
These members can only be accessible from members of
its own class only. It is used to secure the data.
4. Which access specifier is used when no access specifier

is used with a member of class (java)?
a) Private
b) Default
c) Protected
d) Public
View Answer
Answer: b
Explanation: Default access is used if the programmer
2 of 8 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
doesn’t specify the specifier. This acts in similar way as that

of private. But since nothing is specified we call it default
access.
5. Which specifier allows a programmer to make the private

members which can be inherited?
a) Private
b) Default
c) Protected
d) Protected and default
View Answer
Answer: c
Explanation: Protected access is used to make the
members private. But those members can be inherited. This
gives both security and code reuse capability to a program.
6. Which among the following is false?

a) Private members can be accessed using friend functions
b) Member functions can be made private
c) Default members can’t be inherited
d) Public members are accessible from other classes also
View Answer
Answer: c
Explanation: The default members can be inherited.
Provided that they are in same package. It works in a little
different way from private access specifier.
7. If a class has all the private members, which specifier will

be used for its implicit constructor?
a) Private
b) Public
3 of 8 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
c) Protected
d) Default
View Answer
Answer: b
Explanation: The implicit constructor will always be public.
Otherwise the class wouldn’t be able to have instances. In
turn, no objects will be created and the class can only be
used for inheritance.
8. If class A has add() function with protected access, and

few other members in public . Then class B inherits class A
privately. Will the user will not be able to call _________
from object of class B.
a) Any function of class A
b) The add() function of class A
c) Any member of class A
d) Private, protected and public members of class A
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: Class B object will not be able to call any of
the private, protected and public members of class A. It is
not only about the function add(), but all the members of
class A will become private members of class B.
9. Which access specifier should be used in a class where

the instances can’t be created?
a) Private default constructor
b) All private constructors
c) Only default constructor to be public
d) Only default constructor to be protected
4 of 8 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
View Answer
Answer: b
Explanation: All the constructors must be made private.
This will restrict the instance of class to be made anywhere
in the program. Since the constructors are private, no
instance will be able to call them and hence won’t be
allocated with any memory space.
10. On which specifier’s data, does the size of a class’s

object depend?
a) All the data members are added
b) Only private members are added
c) Only public members are added
d) Only default data members are added
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: All the data members are counted to calculate
the size of an object of a class. The data member’s access
specifier doesn’t play any role here. Hence all the data size
will be added.
11. If class B inherits class A privately. And class B has a

friend function. Will the friend function be able to access the
private member of class A?
a) Yes, because friend function can access all the members
b) Yes, because friend function is of class B
c) No, because friend function can only access private
members of friend class
d) No, because friend function can access private member
of class A also
5 of 8 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
View Answer
Answer: c
Explanation: The friend function of class B will not be able
to access private members of class A. Since B is inheriting
class A privately, the members will become private in class
B. But private members of class A won’t be inherited at all.
Hence it won’t be accessible.
12. If an abstract class has all the private members, then

_________
a) No class will be able to implement members of abstract
class
b) Only single inheritance class can implement its members
c) Only other enclosing classes will be able to implement
those members
d) No class will be able to access those members but can
implement.
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: The classes which inherit the abstract class,
won’t be able to implement the members of abstract class.
The private members will not be inherited. This will restrict
the subclasses to implement those members.
13. Which access specifier should be used so that all the

parent class members can be inherited and accessed from
outside the class?
a) Private
b) Default or public
c) Protected or private
6 of 8 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
d) Public
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: All the members must be of public access. So
that the members can be inherited easily. Also, the
members will be available from outside the class.
14. Which access specifier is usually used for data

members of a class?
a) Private
b) Default
c) Protected
d) Public
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: All the data members should be made private
to ensure the highest security of data. In special cases we
can use public or protected access, but it is advised to keep
the data members private always.
15. Which specifier should be used for member functions of

a class?
a) Private
b) Default
c) Protected
d) Public
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: It is always advised that the member functions
should be kept public so that those functions can be used
7 of 8 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
from out of the class. This is usually done to ensure that the
features provided by the class can be used at its maximum.

Private Access Specifier - Object

and Answers
by Manish
8-10 minutes

Choice Questions & Answers (MCQs) focuses on “Private
Access Specifier”.
1. If a function has to be called only by using other member

functions of the class, what should be the access specifier
used for that function?
a) Private
b) Protected
c) Public
d) Default
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: The function should be made private. In this
way, the function will be available to be called only from the
class member functions. Hence the function will be secure
from outside world.
2. Which among the following is correct for the code given
1 of 11 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
below?
class student
{
private: student()
{
}
public : student( int x)
{
marks =x;
}
};
a) The object can never be created

b) The object can be created without parameters
c) Only the object with only 1 parameter can be created
d) Only the object with some parameters can be created
View Answer
Answer: c
Explanation: For creating object without parameters, the
default constructor must be defined in public access. But
here, only parameterized constructor is public, hence the
objects being created with only one parameter will only be
allowed.
3. Which among the following is true for the code given

below?
class A
{
private : int marks; char name[20];
public :
2 of 11 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
A(int x=100)
{
marks=x;
}
};
a) Objects can be created with one parameter or without

parameter
b) Object can be created only with one parameter
c) Object can be created with more than one parameter
d) Objects can be create only without parameter
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: The constructor here has a default argument
constructor. Hence we can pass one parameter, but that is
optional. If an object is created without parameter, the
default value will be used in the constructor definition.
4. Which among the following is correct to call a private

member from outside the class?
a) object.memberfunction( parameters );
b) object->memberfunction( parameters );
c) object->memberfunction( parameteres); or
object.memberfunction( parameters );
d) Not possible
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: The private member function will not be
accessible from outside the class. Hence any syntax will not
work to access the private members. If you have the
3 of 11 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
address of the member, may be you can access those

members, but that is totally different case and concept.
5. If private members has to be accessed directly from

outside the class but the access specifier must not be
changed, what should be done?
a) Specifier must be changed
b) Friend function should be used
c) Other public members should be used
d) It is not possible
View Answer
Answer: b
Explanation: For calling the function directly, we can’t use
another function because that will be indirect call. Using
friend function, we can access the private members directly.
6. Which access specifier is/are most secure during

inheritance?
a) Private
b) Default
c) Protected
d) Private and default
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: The private members are most secure in
inheritance. The default members can still be in inherited in
special cases, but the private members can’t be accessed
in any case.
7. Choose the correct option for the code given below

class A{ static int c=0; public: A(){ c++; } };
4 of 11 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
a) Constructor will make c=1 for each object created

b) Constructor will make c=0 for each object created
c) Constructor will keep number of objects created
d) Constructor will just initialize c=0 then increment by 1
View Answer
Answer: c
Explanation: The constructor is using a static member to
keep the count of the number of objects created. This is
done because the variable c is static and hence the value
will be common for all the objects created.
8. Which option is false for the following code?
class A
{
private : int sum(int x, int y)
{
return x+y;
}
public: A()
{
}
A(int x, int y)
{
cout<<sum(x,y);
}
};
a) Constructor can be created with zero argument

b) Constructor prints sum, if two parameters are passed
with object creation
5 of 11 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
c) Constructor will give error if float values are passed

d) Constructor will take 0 as default value of parameters if
not passed
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: Constructor is not having any default
arguments hence no default value will be given to any
parameters. Only integer values must be passed to the
constructor if we need the sum as output, otherwise if float
values are passed, type mismatch will be shown as error.
9. Which member will never be used from the following

class?
class A()
{
int marks; char name[20];
public : A()
{
marks=100;
}
void disp()
{
cout<<”Marks=
”&lt'<marks;
cout<<”Student”;
}
};
a) name variable will never be used

b) marks variable will never be used
6 of 11 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
c) constructor will never be used

d) disp() function will never be used
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: Variable name will never be used. It is a
private member. None other than class members can
access name, also, neither the constructor nor the disp()
function are accessing the variable name. Hence it will
never be accessible.
10. Private member functions can be overloaded.

a) True
b) False
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: The private functions can also be overloaded.
This can be done in usual way by having the same name of
the member function and having different signature. Only
thing is, they must be accessed from members of class
only.
11. Which among the following is true?

a) Private member functions can’t be overloaded
b) Private member functions can be overridden
c) Private member functions can’t be overloaded with a
public member
d) Private member function can’t be overridden
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: The private member functions can be
7 of 11 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
overloaded but they can’t be overridden. This is because,

overriding means a function with same name in derived
class, gets more priority when called from object of derived
class. Here, the member function is private so there is no
way that it can be overridden.
12. Which data member in following code will be used

whenever an object is created?
Class A
{
int x; int y; int z;
public : A()
{
y=100; x=100*y;
}
};
a) x will be used
b) y will be used
c) z will be used
d) All will be used
View Answer
Answer: c
Explanation: Whenever an object will be created, the
constructor will be called. Inside constructor we are using
the data members x and y. Hence these two will always be
used with each object creation.
13. Which member can be considered most secure in the

code below?
8 of 11 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
class A()
{
int a;
private : int b;
protected : int c;
public : int d;
};
a) a
b) b
c) c
d) d
View Answer
Answer: b
Explanation: The default variables can be inherited in some
special cases but the public members can never be
inherited. Hence the most secure data member in the class
is b.
14. Which among the following is correct for the code given
below?
class A
{
private : A()
{
}
public : A(int x)
{
}
};
9 of 11 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
A a;
A b(100);
a) Program will give compile time error

b) Program will run fine
c) Program will give runtime error
d) Program will give logical error
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: The program will be giving a compile time error
as the default constructor is private in class. And, the logical
errors are usually runtime so we can’t say that the program
will give logical error. The program will not run.
15. Which among the following is correct?

a) Private specifier must be used before public specifier
b) Private specifier must be used before protected specifier
c) Private specifier must be used first
d) Private specifier can be used anywhere in class
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: The private specifier can be used anywhere in
the class as required. It is not a rule to mention the private
members first and then others. It is just followed to write
first for better readability.

Object Oriented Programming

Question Bank
by Manish
9-11 minutes
This set of Object Oriented Programming Question Bank

focuses on “Protected Access Specifier”.
1. Which among the following best describes the protected

specifier?
a) Members are most secure and can’t be used outside
class
b) Members are secure but can be used outside the class
c) Members are secure as private, but can be inherited
d) Members are secure like private, but can’t be inherited
View Answer
Answer: c
Explanation: The members which are made protected, are
most secure if inheritance is not used. But, this facility is
provided to keep those members private and with that, they
can be inherited by other classes. This is done to make the
code more flexible.
2. If a constructor is defined in protected access, then.

a) It’s instance can be created inside the subclasses
1 of 11 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
b) It’s instance can be created anywhere in the program

c) It’s instance can be created inside the subclasses and
main() function
d) It’s instance can be created inside the parent class only
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: The instances will be allowed to be created
only inside the sub classes. This is because the protected
members will be inherited and hence the constructor too.
This will allow the subclasses to call the constructor
whenever an object is created.
3.For the following code, choose the correct option:
class A
{
int marks;
protected : A()
{
marks=100;
}
public : A( int x)
{
marks=x;
}
};
a) The instances can be created only in subclasses

b) The instances can be created only in main() function
c) The instances can be created only in parent class
d) The instances can be created anywhere in the program
2 of 11 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: The instances can be created anywhere in the
program. The only restriction will be on which constructor
will have to be called. The instances with zero arguments
will be allowed to be created only inside the subclasses, but
the instances with one argument can be created anywhere
in the program.
4. If the protected members are to be made accessible only

to the nearest subclass and no further subclasses, which
access specifier should be used in inheritance?
a) The sub class should inherit the parent class privately
b) The sub class should inherit the parent class as
protected
c) The sub class should inherit the parent class as public
d) The sub class can use any access modifier
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: The sub class should use private inheritance.
This will allow only the nearest sub classes to inherit the
protected members and then those members will become
private. Hence further inheritance of those members will not
be possible.
5.What will be the output of following code (all header files

and required things are included)?
class A
{
int marks;
3 of 11 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
protected : A(int x)
{
marks=x;
}
public : A()
{
marks=100;
}
}
class B
{
A a;
A b=100;
};
main()
{
A a, b=100;
B c;
}
a) Program runs fine

b) Program gives run time error
c) Program gives compile time error
d) Program gives logical error
View Answer
Answer: c
Explanation: The objects being created with assignment
value are allowed, if the constructor accepts only 1
argument. But main() function will not be able to create the
4 of 11 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
object here with assignment, as the constructor which

accepts one argument is in protected mode in the class.
6. Which among the following is true for the given code

below.
class A
{
protected : int marks;
public :
A()
{
marks=100;
}
disp()
{
cout<<”marks=”<<
marks;
}
};
class B: protected A
{
};
B b;
b.disp();
a) Object b can’t access disp() function

b) Object b can access disp() function inside its body
c) Object b can’t access members of class A
d) Program runs fine
View Answer
5 of 11 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
Answer: a
Explanation: The object of class B can’t access the
members of A outside the class. This is because the class
is being inherited in protected access, so all the members
will become protected in subclass B.
7. Protected members differ from default members

as_______
a) Protected members can be accessed outside package
using inheritance, but default can’t
b) Default members can be accessed outside package
using inheritance, but protected can’t
c) Protected members are allowed for inheritance but
Default members are not allowed
d) Both are same
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: The protected members are allowed in the
same package but can also be accessed in other packages
using inheritance. But the default members can never be
accessible in other packages.
8. If all the members are defined in protected specifier then

( Constructors not considered ):
a) Instance of class can’t be created
b) Instance of class can be created anywhere
c) Instance of class can be created only in subclasses
d) Instance of class can be created only in main() function
View Answer
Answer: b
6 of 11 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
Explanation: The instances can be created anywhere in the

program. This is because the constructors are not
considered among the members defined in protected mode.
Hence the default implicit constructor will be used whenever
an object is created.
9. Which among the following is correct for the code given.
class A
{
private: int marks;
A()
{
}
Public : disp()
{
cout<< marks;
}
};
class B: public A
{
}
B b;
a) Instance of B will not be created

b) Instance of B will be created
c) Program gives compile time error
d) Program gives run time error
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: Instance of B will not be created. When you try
7 of 11 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
to create instance of B, First the constructor of parent class

will be called, but the parent class constructor is private,
hence it won’t be able to initialize and allocate memory for
parent class members. In turn, the object of B will not be
created.
10. If protected inheritance is used then _____

a) Public members become public in subclass
b) Protected members become public in subclass
c) Protected members become protected in subclass
d) Protected and Public members become protected in
subclass
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: The protected and public members of the
parent class will become the protected members in
subclass. This is predefined rule of inheritance. The reason
behind is to maintain the level of security in subclass too.
11. If protected members are to be accessed from outside

the class then__________
a) Members must be inherited publically in subclass
b) Members must accessed using class pointers
c) Members must be accessed as usual
d) Members must be made public
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: The members must be made public, otherwise
it is not possible. In every case, the protected members will
act as private members if it’s about access specifier. It will
8 of 11 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
only be inherited, that too will lead to make those members

protected again, in subclasses.
12. Which among the following can use protected access

specifier?
a) Members which may be used in other packages
b) Members which have to be secure and should be used
by other packages/subclass
c) Members which have to be accessed from anywhere in
the program
d) Members which have to be as secure as private but can
be used by main() function
View Answer
Answer: b
Explanation: The members which have to be secure and
might get used in other packages or subclasses can use
protected access. This also allows the members to be safe
from accidental modification.
13. Protected access is same as default access that is

given implicitly in java if no specifier is mentioned.
a) True
b) False
View Answer
Answer: b
Explanation: The statement given is true. The clear
difference is protected members are available in other
packages also, but the default members are available within
the package only.
14. If a class have default constructor defined in private
9 of 11 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
access, and one parameter constructor in protected mode,

how will it be possible to create instance of object?
a) Define a constructor in public access with different
signature
b) Directly create the object in the subclass
c) Directly create the object in main() function
d) Not possible
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: If a new constructor is defined in public
access. That will be available to whole program. Only
restriction will be of the way to use it.
15. What will be the output of the program given below:
class A
{
Public : A(int a=0)
{
cout<<”new A”;
}
};
A a;
A b;
A c;
a) new A new A new A

b) newAnewAnewA
c) new Anew Anew A
d) new A new Anew A
View Answer
10 of 11 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
Answer: c
Explanation: The constructor has a default argument.
Whenever the object is created, the constructor will be
called and print the message in its definition. Since the
argument is default valued, it is not mandatory to pass
anything to the new object.

Public Access Specifier - Object

and Answers
by Manish
7-9 minutes

Choice Questions & Answers (MCQs) focuses on “Public
Access Specifier”.
1. Which among the following is true for the code given

below:
class A
{
int marks;
public : disp()
{
cout<<marks;
}
}
class B: protected A
{
char name[20];
}
1 of 9 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
A a; a.disp();
B b; b.disp();
a) Only object of class A can access disp() function

b) Only object of class B can access disp() function
c) Both instances can access disp() function
d) Accessing disp() outside class is not possible
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: The object of class A can access the disp()
function. This is because the disp() function is public in
definition of class A. But it can’t be accessed from instance
of class B because the disp() function is protected in class
B, since it was inherited as protected.
2. If the members have to be accessed from anywhere in

program and other packages also, which access specifier
should be used?
a) Public
b) Private
c) Protected
d) Default
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: The access specifier must be public so as to
access the members outside the class and anywhere within
the program without using inheritance. This is a rule,
predefined for the public members.
3. Which among the following have least security according

to the access permissions allowed?
2 of 9 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
a) Private
b) Default
c) Protected
d) Public
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: The public members are available to whole
program. This makes the members most vulnerable to
accidental changes, which may result in unwanted
modification and hence unstable programming.
4. Which among the following can be used for outer most

class access specifier in java?
a) Private
b) Public
c) Default
d) Default or Public
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: Either default or public access specifier must
be used for outer most classes. Private can be used with
inner classes. This is done so that all the members can
access and use the outmost class and that program
execution can be done from anywhere. Inner classes can
be made private for security.
5. We can reduce the visibility of inherited methods.

a) True
b) False
View Answer
3 of 9 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
Answer: b
Explanation: The statement given is false. This is because
when we inherit the members they can either be made
more secure or be at same access. But the visibility
reduction is not possible, for example, if a member is
protected in parent class, then it can only be made
protected or private in sub class and not public in any case.
6. If members of a super class are public, then________

a) All those will be available in subclasses
b) None of those will be available in subclasses
c) Only data members will be available in subclass
d) Only member functions will be available in subclass
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: All the members will be available in sub
classes. Though it is not guaranteed whether the members
will be available in subsequent subclasses from the first
subclass.
7. How many public class(s) (outermost) can be there in a

java program?
a) 1
b) 2
c) 3
d) As required
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: There can be only one public class in a java
program. The public class name must match the name of
4 of 9 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
file. And there can’t be more than one class with same
name in a single program in same scope. Hence it is not
possible to have more than one public class in java
program.
8. What is output of following code?
package pack1;
class A
{
public A()
{
System.out.print(“object
created”);
}
}
package pack2;
import pack1.*;
class B
{
A a=new A();
}
a) Output is: object created

b) Output is: object createdobject created
c) Compile time error
d) Run time error
View Answer
Answer: c
Explanation: The program will give compile time error.
Class A is defined with default access specifier. This
5 of 9 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
directly means that class A will be available within package

only. Even if the constructor is public, the object will not be
created.
9. Which among the following for public specifier is false?

a) The static members can’t be public
b) The public members are available in other packages tooo
c) The subclasses can inherit the public members privately
d) There can be only one public class in java program
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: The static members are not property of any
object of the class. Instead, those are treated as property of
class. This allows us to have public static members too.
10. A class has its default constructor defined as public.

Class B inherits class A privately. The class:
a) B will not be able to have instances
b) Only A can have instances
c) Only B can have instances
d) Both classes can have instances
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: Class A can have instances as it has public
default constructor. Class will have its own constructors
defined. Hence both classes can have instances.
11. Which specifier can be used to inherit protected

members as protected in sub class but public as public in
subclass?
a) Private
6 of 9 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
b) Default
c) Public
d) Protected
View Answer
Answer: c
Explanation: The specifier that can make protected
member’s protected in subclass and public member’s public
in subclass, is public. This is done to maintain the security
level of protected members of parent class.
12. Which among the following is true for public class?

a) There can be more than one public class in a single
program
b) Public class members can be used without using
instance of class
c) Public class is available only within the package
d) Public classes can be accessed from any other class
using instance
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: The public class is a usual class. There is no
special rule but the members of the class can be accessed
from other classes using instance of the class. This is
usually useful to define main() function.
13. If a class doesn’t have public members, then________

a) None of its members will be able to get inherited
b) None of its instance creation will be allowed
c) None of its member function can be called outside the
class
7 of 9 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
d) None of its data members will be able to get initial value

View Answer
Answer: c
Explanation: According to rule of private, protected and
default access specifiers, none of the members under these
specifiers will be able to get invoked outside the class. We
are not sure about the members of class specifically so
other options doesn’t give a fixed answer.
14. In multi-level inheritance(all public) , the public members

of parent/superclass will ________
a) Will continue to get inherited subsequently
b) Will not be inherited after one subclass inheritance
c) Will not be available to be called outside class
d) Will not be able to allocated with any memory space
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: The public inheritance makes the public
members of base class, public in derived classes. This can
be used when the same feature have to be redefined with
each new class inheriting the base class.
15. Which specifier allows to secure the public members of

base class in inherited classes?
a) Private
b) Protected
c) Public
d) Private and Protected
View Answer
Answer: d
8 of 9 3/19/18, 9:32 AM
Explanation: Both the private and protected specifiers can

make the public members of base class more secure. This
is useful if we stop using the parent class members and use
the classes which inherited the parent class, so as to
secure data better.
