Assume the following:
Missing package and import statements: If sample code do not include package
or import statements, and the question does not explicitly refer to these missing
statements, then assume that all sample code is in the same package, or import
statements exist to support them.
No file or directory path names for classes: If a question does not state the file
names or directory locations of classes, then assume one of the following,
whichever will enable the code to compile and run:
o All classes are in one file
o Each class is contained in a separate file, and all files are in one directory
Unintended line breaks: Sample code might have unintended line breaks. If you
see a line of code that looks like it has wrapped, and this creates a situation where
the wrapping is significant (for example, a quoted String literal has wrapped),
assume that the wrapping is an extension of the same line, and the line does not
contain a hard carriage return that would cause a compilation failure.
Code fragments: A code fragment is a small section of source code that is
presented without its context. Assume that all necessary supporting code exists
and that the supporting environment fully supports the correct compilation and
execution of the code shown and its omitted environment.
Descriptive comments: Take descriptive comments, such as "setter and getters
go here," at face value. Assume that correct code exists, compiles, and runs
successfully to create the described effect.
