Preface

This module is part of a self-assessment test designed to help you determine how much you know about object-orientedprogramming using Java.

The test consists of a series of questions with answers and explanations of the answers.

The questions and the answers are connected by hyperlinks to make it easy for you to navigate from the question to the answer and back.

I recommend that you open another copy of this document in a separate browser window and use the links to under Listings to easily find and view the listings while you are reading about them.
