ICSE 2019 Computer Applications Question Paper Solved

SECTION A (40 Marks)

Question 1
(a) Name any two basic principles of Object-oriented programming.
Encapsulation and Inheritance.

(b) Write a difference between unary and binary operators.
Unary operators work on one operand, whereas binary operators work on two operands.

(c) Name the which:
(i) indicates that a method has no return type.
void

(ii) makes the variable as a class variable.
static

(i) public
keyword

(ii) ‘a’
constant

(iii) ==
operator
(iv) {}
separator

Question 2
(a) Differentiate between if else if and switch statements.
if else if can test for all types of conditions, whereas switch only tests for equality.

(b) Give the output of the following code:
String p = "20", q = "19";
int a = Integer.parseInt(p);
int b = Integer.valueOf(q);
System.out.println(a + "" + b);

char ch = '9';
res = Character.isDigit(ch);
boolean

(e) What is the difference between the linear search and the binary search technique?
Linear search can work on both sorted and unsorted lists, whereas binary search can only work on sorted lists.

Question 3
(a) Write a Java expression for the following:
|x² + 2xy|
Math.abs(x * x + 2 * x * y)

(b) Write the return data type of the following functions:
(i) startsWith()
boolean

    if(i % 2 == 1)

        continue;

    System.out.print(i + " ");

}

OUTPUT:
4 2
The loop executes 5 times.

(e) State a difference between call by value and call by reference.
Call by value takes place through primitive data types, whereas call by reference takes place through composite data types.

Question 8
Write a program to input a sentence and convert it into uppercase and count and display the total number of words starting with the letter ‘A’.
Example:
Sample Input: ADVANCEMENT AND APPLICATION OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY ARE EVER CHANGING.

                word = new String();

                break;

                default:

                word += ch;

            }

        }

        System.out.println("Total number of words starting with letter 'A' = " + count);

    }

}

Question 9
A tech number has even number of digits. If the number is split in two equal halves, then the square of sum of these halves is equal to the number itself. Write a program to generate and print all four digits tech numbers.
Example:
Consider the number 3025.
Square of sum of the halves of 3025 = (30 + 25)²
= (55)²
= 3025 is a tech number.

class Tech{

    public static void main(String args[]){

        for(int i = 1000; i <= 9999; i++){

            if(isTech(i))

                System.out.print(i + "\t");

        }

    }

    public static boolean isTech(int n){

        int a = n / 100;

        int b = n % 100;

        int sum = a + b;

        if(n == sum * sum)

            return true;

        return false;

    }

}
