1. What is the use of keyword ‘import’ in Java programming?
→ The `import` keyword is used to access built-in or user-defined classes from packages
into a Java program. Example: import [Link];.
2. What do you mean by ‘Run time error’?
→ A runtime error occurs while the program is executing (after successful compilation).
Example: division by zero.
3. What is a compound statement?
→ A compound statement is a group of multiple statements enclosed within { } braces,
treated as a single unit.
4. Distinguish between next() and nextLine() methods.
→ next(): Reads a single word (stops at space).
nextLine(): Reads the entire line including spaces until the Enter key is pressed.
5. Differentiate between testing and debugging.
→ Testing: The process of finding errors or bugs in the program by running it with different
inputs.
Debugging: The process of locating and fixing the errors found during testing.
