Question & Answer
1.Does C# support multiple-inheritance?
No. But you can use Interfaces.
2.Where is a protected class-level variable available?
It is available to any sub-class derived from base class
3.Are private class-level variables inherited?
Yes, but they are not accessible.
4.Describe the accessibility modifier “protected internal”.
It is available to classes that are within the same assembly and derived from the specified base class.
6.Which class is at the top of .NET class hierarchy?
System.Object.
7.What does the term immutable mean?
The data value may not be changed.
Note: The variable value may be changed, but the original immutable data value was discarded and a new data value was created in memory.
8.What’s the difference between System.String and System.Text.StringBuilder classes?
System.String is immutable.
System.StringBuilder was designed with the purpose of having a mutable string where a variety of operations can be performed.
9.What’s the advantage of using System.Text.StringBuilder over System.String?
StringBuilder is more efficient in cases where there is a large amount of string manipulation. Strings are immutable, so each time a string is changed, a new instance in memory is created.
10.Can you store multiple data types in System.Array?
No.
11.What’s the difference between the System.Array.CopyTo() and System.Array.Clone()?
The Clone() method returns a new array (a shallow copy) object containing all the elements in the original array. The CopyTo() method copies the elements into another existing array. Both perform a shallow copy. A shallow copy means the contents (each array element) contains references to the same object as the elements in the original array. A deep copy (which neither of these methods performs) would create a new instance of each element's object, resulting in a different, yet identacle object.
12.How can you sort the elements of the array in descending order?
By calling Sort()
No. But you can use Interfaces.
