multi-threaded, Student will execute the implementation of Package, Exception
handling mechanism and File handling .Hands-on practice with JAVA ensures
practical experience in Object Oriented paradigm

Course Outcome:
After Completion of the Course, Student will able to:
No Course Outcomes RBT Level
Explain the fundamental concepts of object-oriented programming, such as UN
01 encapsulation, abstraction, inheritance, and polymorphism, and illustrate their
significance in software development.
Construct Java programs using classes, objects, constructors, and interfaces, and AP
02 demonstrate the concepts of method overloading and overriding.
Compile, execute, and debug Java applications effectively.
Develop reusable and modular Java applications by applying inheritance, AP
03
polymorphism, interfaces, packages, and exception handling mechanisms.
Implement file handling operations using Java’s I/O classes and apply AP
04 multithreading concepts to achieve concurrent execution.

Design and develop solutions for real-world problems by integrating object- CR

05
oriented programming principles using Java.

13 Write a program in Java to demonstrate the use of 'final' keyword in the field declaration. How it
is accessed using the objects.
14 Develop minimum 4 program based on variation in methods i.e. passing by value, passing by
reference, returning values and returning objects from methods.
15 Write a program in Java to demonstrate single inheritance, multilevel inheritance and hierarchical
inheritance.
16 Create a class to find out whether the given year is leap year or not.
(Use inheritance for this program)
17 Write an application that illustrates how to access a hidden variable. Class A declares a static
variable x. The class B extends A and declares an instance variable x. display ( ) method in B
displays both of these variables.
18 Write a program in Java in which a subclass constructor invokes the constructor of the super class
and instantiate the values.
19 Write a program that illustrates interface inheritance. Interface P12 inherits from both P1 and P2.
Each interface declares one constant and one method. The class Q implements P12. Instantiate Q
and invoke each of its methods. Each method displays one of the constants.
20 Write an application that illustrates method overriding in the same package and different
packages. Also demonstrate accessibility rules in inside and outside packages.
21 Describe abstract class called Shape which has three subclasses say Triangle, Rectangle, Circle.
Define one method area () in the abstract class and override this area () in these three subclasses
to calculate for specific object i.e. area () of Triangle subclass should calculate area of triangle
etc. Same for Rectangle and Circle

amount Rs 1000.00 and then start withdrawing of Rs 400.00, Rs 300.00 and it throws exception
"Not Sufficient Fund" when user withdraws Rs. 500 thereafter
27 Write a program that executes two threads. One thread displays “Thread1” every 2,000
milliseconds, and the other displays “Thread2” every 4,000 milliseconds. Create the threads by
extending the Thread class
28 Write a program that executes two threads. One thread will print the even numbers and the thread
will print odd numbers from 1 to 50.
