Object Oriented Programming using C++ Questions

and Answers – Encapsulation
1. Which among the following best describes encapsulation?
a) It is a way of combining various data members into a single unit
b) It is a way of combining various member functions into a single unit
c) It is a way of combining various data members and member functions into a single unit
which can operate on any data
d) It is a way of combining various data members and member functions that operate on
those data members into a single unit
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: It is a way of combining both data members and member functions, which
operate on those data members, into a single unit. We call it a class in OOP generally. This
feature have helped us modify the structures used in C language to be upgraded into class
in C++ and other languages.

4. Which feature can be implemented using encapsulation?

a) Inheritance
b) Abstraction
c) Polymorphism
d) Overloading
View Answer
Answer: b
Explanation: Data abstraction can be achieved by using encapsulation. We can hide the
operation and structure of actual program from the user and can show only required
information by the user.

6. Encapsulation helps in writing ___________ classes in java.

a) Mutable
b) Abstract
c) Wrapper
d) Immutable
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: Immutable classes are used for caching purpose generally. And it can be
created by making the class as final and making all its members private.
8. How can Encapsulation be achieved?
a) Using Access Specifiers
b) Using only private members
c) Using inheritance
d) Using Abstraction
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: Using access specifiers we can achieve encapsulation. Using this we can in
turn implement data abstraction. It’s not necessary that we only use private access.

9. Which among the following violates the principle of encapsulation almost always?
a) Local variables
b) Global variables
c) Public variables
d) Array variables
View Answer
Answer: b
Explanation: Global variables almost always violates the principles of encapsulation.
Encapsulation says the data should be accessed only by required set of elements. But
global variable is accessible everywhere, also it is most prone to changes. It doesn’t hide
the internal working of program.

MCQs – C++ Inheritance

Q)base class and derived class relationship
comes under
1. Inheritance
2. Polymorphism
3. encapsulation
4. None
Answer : 1

Explanation: Base class and derived class come under inheritance, one of the C++
oops principle. Also, it is known as parent child relationship.

Q) C++ Inheritance relationship is

1. Association
 2. Is-A
3. Has-A
4. None
Answer: 2

Explanation: IS A Relationship is related to inheritance in C++.

Lets consider a relation ship between classes i.e. Dog IS A Animal, Apple IS A
Fruit, Car IS A Vehicle etc. Here, IS A relationship is valid, but, if we say Animal IS
A Dog, then it is wrong. So, Animal class should be the base class and Dog class
will be the derived class.

Q) Types of inheritance in C++ are

1. Multilevel
2. Multiple
3. Hierarchical
4. All the above
Answer: 4

Explanation: All are types of inheritance relationship in C++ oops.

Multilevel Inheritance: When a class is derived from a class which is also derived
from another class.
Multiple Inheritance: A class inherits multiple class. or say, A class has more than
one base class.
Hierarchical Inheritance: When multiple classes derived from a same base class.

Q) Inheritance allow in C++ Program?

1. Class Re-usability
 2. Creating a hierarchy of classes
3. Extendibility
4. All
Answer: 4

Explanation: Advantage of inheritance are like re-usability- You can re-use

existing class in a new class that avoid re-writing same code and efforts.
We can make an application easily extensible.

Q) Functions that can be inherited from base

class in C++ program
1. Constructor
2. Destructor
3. Static function
4. None
Answer: 4

Explanation:

In C++, constructor and destruction of a class cannot be inherited to derived

class. However, when we create the object of derived class then constructor of
the base class is called automatically. You can read order of execution of
constructors and destructors call in c++ inheritance.

Static function is not the part of an object, Hence, it cannot be inherited in

derived classes. Note that all the class member functions that are the part of an
object, only they can be inherited. Read what is static function in C++
programming
Q)____________ members of base class are
inaccessible to derived class
1. Private
2. Protected
3. Public
4. None
Answer: 1

Q) Accessing functions from multiple classes to

a derived class is known as
1. multiple inheritance
2. single inheritance
3. Hybrid inheritance
4. multilevel inheritance
Answer: 1

Q) In inheritance, order of execution of base

class and derived class destructors are
1. Base to derived
2. Derived to base
3. Random order
 4. none
Answer: 2

In inheritance, execution order of constructors are always from base to derived

and destructors call order is in reverse i.e. from derived to base. In polymorphic
classes, means the class that contain virtual functions, we need to make
destructor virtual in base class. Other wise the derived class destructor will not be
called. Read detail about C++ virtual destructor with example.

MCQs – C++ Virtual Concepts

Q) Which concept is not available in C++?

1. Virtual constructor
2. Virtual destructor
3. Virtual function
4. Virtual Table
Answer: 1
There is no concept of virtual constructor in C++ programming. Read why virtual
constructor is not possible in C++.

Q) What is output of the following C++ program?

class A{

public:

void f(){

cout<<"A::f()"<<endl;

}
};

class B:public A{

public:

void fb(){

cout<<"A::fb()"<<endl;

};

class C:public A{

public:

void fc(){

cout<<"A::fc()"<<endl;

};
class D: public B,public C{

public:

void fd(){

cout<<"A::fd()"<<endl;

};

int main(){

D obj;

obj.f();

return 0;

1. A::f()
2. A::f() A::f()
3. A::f() A::f()
4. Compiler error
Answer: 4
Explanation: The above class represent the virtual base class / diamond problem
in C++. The object D will try to access the function f() of base class via class B and
class C. as both B and C inherites A. This will lead to ambiguity call the function.
So, compiler will flash an error. i.e. ambiguous access of f().

If we make the class B and C virtual like below, then there would not be any ambiguity and
program will work fine.
class A { public: void f() {} };

class B : public virtual A {};

class C : public virtual A {};

class D : public B, public C {};

Q) What is purpose of Virtual destructor?

1. To maintain the call hierarchy of destructors of base and derived classes.

2. Destructor can be virtual so that we can override the destructor of base
class in derived class.
3. Virtual destructor is to destroy the VTable
4. None
Answer: 1
Base class destructor is made virtual in inheritance relationship to maintain the
call of destructors in base and derived class. Note that first derived class
destructor will be called then derived class. Read execution of order of
constructors and destructors in C++. Also, Read why and when virtual destructor
is useful ?

Q) When VTABLE (Virtual table) get created for a class?

 1. Every class by default has virtual table
2. When a Class Overrides the function of Base class
3. When a class contains at least one virtual function.
4. When a class is derived from a base class.
Answer: 3

Q) Number of VTable created for following C++ program is ________

class A {

public:

virtual void f(){

cout<<"function :f()"<<endl;

};

int main(){

A obj1, obj2,obj3;

return 0;

1. 0
2. 1
 3. 3
4. 4
Answer: 2
Compiler will create only 1 virtual table for the class. Virtual table does not
depend upon number of objects created.

Object Oriented Programming using C++ Questions

and Answers – Abstraction
1. Which among the following best defines abstraction?
a) Hiding the implementation
b) Showing the important data
c) Hiding the important data
d) Hiding the implementation and showing only the features
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: It includes hiding the implementation part and showing only the required data
and features to the user. It is done to hide the implementation complexity and details from
the user. And to provide a good interface in programming.

2. Hiding the implementation complexity can ____________

a) Make the programming easy
b) Make the programming complex
c) Provide more number of features
d) Provide better features
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: It can make programming easy. The programming need not know how the
inbuilt functions are working but can use those complex functions directly in the program. It
doesn’t provide more number of features or better features.
3. Class is _________ abstraction.
a) Object
b) Logical
c) Real
d) Hypothetical
View Answer
Answer: b
Explanation: Class is logical abstraction because it provides a logical structure for all of its
objects. It gives an overview of the features of an object.
4. Object is ________ abstraction.
a) Object
b) Logical
c) Real
d) Hypothetical
View Answer
Answer: c
Explanation: Object is real abstraction because it actually contains those features of class. It
is the implementation of overview given by class. Hence the class is logical abstraction and
its object is real.

5. Abstraction gives higher degree of ________

a) Class usage
b) Program complexity
c) Idealized interface
d) Unstable interface
View Answer
Answer: c
Explanation: It is to idealize the interface. In this way the programmer can use the
programming features more efficiently and can code better. It can’t increase the program
complexity, as the feature itself is made to hide it.

6. Abstraction can apply to ____________

a) Control and data
b) Only data
c) Only control
d) Classes
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: Abstraction applies to both. Control abstraction involves use of subroutines
and control flow abstraction. Data abstraction involves handling pieces of data in meaningful
ways.
7. Which among the following can be viewed as combination of abstraction of data and
code.
a) Class
b) Object
c) Inheritance
d) Interfaces
View Answer
Answer: b
Explanation: Object can be viewed as abstraction of data and code. It uses data members
and their functioning as data abstraction. Code abstraction as use of object of inbuilt class.

8. Abstraction principle includes___________

a) Use abstraction at its minimum
b) Use abstraction to avoid longer codes
c) Use abstraction whenever possible to avoid duplication
d) Use abstraction whenever possible to achieve OOP
View Answer

and Answers – Access Specifiers
1. How many types of access specifiers are provided in OOP (C++)?
a) 1
b) 2
c) 3
d) 4
View Answer
Answer: c
Explanation: Only 3 types of access specifiers are available. Namely, private, protected and
public. All these three can be used according to the need of security of members.

2. Which among the following can be used together in a single class?

a) Only private
b) Private and Protected together
c) Private and Public together
d) All three together
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: All the classes can use any of the specifiers as needed. There is no restriction
on how many of them can be used together.

3. Which among the following can restrict class members to get inherited?
a) Private
b) Protected
c) Public
d) All three
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: Private members of a class can’t be inherited. These members can only be
accessible from members of its own class only. It is used to secure the data.
3. Which among the following can restrict class members to get inherited?
a) Private
b) Protected
c) Public
d) All three
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: Private members of a class can’t be inherited. These members can only be
accessible from members of its own class only. It is used to secure the data.
5. Which specifier allows a programmer to make the private members which can be
inherited?
a) Private
b) Default
c) Protected
d) Protected and default
View Answer
Answer: c
Explanation: Protected access is used to make the members private. But those members
can be inherited. This gives both security and code reuse capability to a program.

7. If a class has all the private members, which specifier will be used for its implicit
constructor?
a) Private
b) Public
c) Protected
d) Default
View Answer
Answer: b
Explanation: The implicit constructor will always be public. Otherwise the class wouldn’t be
able to have instances. In turn, no objects will be created and the class can only be used for
inheritance.

10. On which specifier’s data, does the size of a class’s object depend?
a) All the data members are added
b) Only private members are added
c) Only public members are added
d) Only default data members are added
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: All the data members are counted to calculate the size of an object of a class.
The data member access specifier doesn’t play any role here. Hence all the data size will
be added.
13. Which access specifier should be used so that all the parent class members can be
inherited and accessed from outside the class?
a) Private
b) Default or public
c) Protected or private
d) Public
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: All the members must be of public access. So that the members can be
inherited easily. Also, the members will be available from outside the class.

4. Which access specifier is usually used for data members of a class?

a) Private
b) Default
c) Protected
d) Public
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: All the data members should be made private to ensure the highest security of
data. In special cases we can use public or protected access, but it is advised to keep the
data members private always.

15. Which specifier should be used for member functions of a class?

a) Private
b) Default
c) Protected
d) Public
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: It is always advised that the member functions should be kept public so that
those functions can be used from out of the class. This is usually done to ensure that the
features provided by the class can be used at its maximum.

Object Oriented Programming using C++ Questions

and Answers – Public Access Specifier
1. Which among the following is true for the code given below?

class A
{
int marks;
public : disp()
{
cout&lt;&lt;marks;
}
}
class B: protected A
{
char name[20];
}
A a; a.disp();
B b; b.disp();

a) Only object of class A can access disp() function

b) Only object of class B can access disp() function
c) Both instances can access disp() function
d) Accessing disp() outside class is not possible
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: The object of class A can access the disp() function. This is because the disp()
function is public in definition of class A. But it can’t be accessed from instance of class B
because the disp() function is protected in class B, since it was inherited as protected.
2. If the members have to be accessed from anywhere in the program and other packages
also, which access specifier should be used?
a) Public
b) Private
c) Protected
d) Default
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: The access specifier must be public so as to access the members outside the
class and anywhere within the program without using inheritance. This is a rule, predefined
for the public members.
3. Which among the following have least security according to the access permissions
allowed?
a) Private
b) Default
c) Protected
d) Public
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: The public members are available to the whole program. This makes the
members most vulnerable to accidental changes, which may result in unwanted
modification and hence unstable programming.

4. Which among the following can be used for outermost class access specifier in java?
a) Private
b) Public
c) Default
d) Default or Public
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: Either default or public access specifier must be used for outermost classes.
Private can be used with inner classes. This is done so that all the members can access
and use the utmost class and that program execution can be done from anywhere. Inner
classes can be made private for security.
7. How many public class(s) (outermost) can be there in a java program?
a) 1
b) 2
c) 3
d) As required
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: There can be only one public class in a java program. The public class name
must match the name of file. And there can’t be more than one class with same name in a
single program in same scope. Hence it is not possible to have more than one public class
in java program.

8. What is the output of the following code?

package pack1;
class A
{
public A()
{
System.out.print(“object created”);
}
}
package pack2;
import pack1.*;
class B
{
A a=new A();
}

a) Output is: object created

b) Output is: object createdobject created
c) Compile time error
d) Run time error
View Answer
Answer: c
Explanation: The program will give compile time error. Class A is defined with default
access specifier. This directly means that class A will be available within package only.
Even if the constructor is public, the object will not be created.
11. Which specifier can be used to inherit protected members as protected in subclass but
public as public in subclass?
a) Private
b) Default
c) Public
d) Protected
View Answer
Answer: c
Explanation: The specifier that can make protected member’s protected in subclass and
public member’s public in subclass, is public. This is done to maintain the security level of
protected members of parent class.

15. Which specifier allows to secure the public members of base class in inherited classes?
a) Private
b) Protected
c) Public
d) Private and Protected
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: Both the private and protected specifiers can make the public members of the
base class more secure. This is useful if we stop using the parent class members and use
the classes which inherited the parent class, so as to secure data better.

Object Oriented Programming using C++ Questions

and Answers – Constructors
1. Which among the following is called first, automatically, whenever an object is created?
a) Class
b) Constructor
c) New
d) Trigger
View Answer
Answer: b
Explanation: Constructors are the member functions which are called automatically
whenever an object is created. It is a mandatory functions to be called for an object to be
created as this helps in initializing the object to a legal initial value for the class.
2. Which among the following is not a necessary condition for constructors?
a) Its name must be same as that of class
b) It must not have any return type
c) It must contain a definition body
d) It can contains arguments
View Answer
Answer: c
Explanation: Constructors are predefined implicitly, even if the programmer doesn’t define
any of them. Even if the programmer declares a constructor, it’s not necessary that it must
contain some definition.

3. Which among the following is correct?

a) class student{ public: int student(){} };
b) class student{ public: void student (){} };
c) class student{ public: student{}{} };
d) class student{ public: student(){} };
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: The constructors must not have any return type. Also, the body may or may
not contain any body. Defining default constructor is optional, if you are not using any other
constructor.

4. In which access should a constructor be defined, so that object of the class can be
created in any function?
a) Public
b) Protected
c) Private
d) Any access specifier will work
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: Constructor function should be available to all the parts of program where the
object is to be created. Hence it is advised to define it in public access, so that any other
function is able to create objects.

4. In which access should a constructor be defined, so that object of the class can be
created in any function?
a) Public
b) Protected
c) Private
d) Any access specifier will work
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: Constructor function should be available to all the parts of program where the
object is to be created. Hence it is advised to define it in public access, so that any other
function is able to create objects.

5. How many types of constructors are available for use in general (with respect to
parameters)?
a) 2
b) 3
c) 4
d) 5
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: Two types of constructors are defined generally, namely, default constructor
and parameterized constructor. Default constructor is not necessary to be defined always.

8. If class C inherits class B. And B has inherited class A. Then while creating the object of
class C, what will be the sequence of constructors getting called?
a) Constructor of C then B, finally of A
b) Constructor of A then C, finally of B
c) Constructor of C then A, finally B
d) Constructor of A then B, finally C
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: While creating the object of class C, its constructor would be called by default.
But, if the class is inheriting some other class, firstly the parent class constructor will be
called so that all the data is initialized that is being inherited.

. In multiple inheritance, if class C inherits two classes A and B as follows, which class
constructor will be called first?

class A{ };
class B{ };
class C: public A, public B{ };

a) A()
b) B()
c) C()
d) Can’t be determined
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: Constructor of class A will be called first. This is because the constructors in
multiple inheritance are called in the sequence in which they are written to be inherited.
Here A is written first, hence it is called first.

11. If the object is passed by value to a copy constructor?

a) Only public members will be accessible to be copied
b) That will work normally
c) Compiler will give out of memory error
d) Data stored in data members won’t be accessible
View Answer
Answer: c
Explanation: Compiler runs out of memory. This is because while passing the argument by
value, a constructor of the object will be called. That in turn called another object
constructor for values, and this goes on. This is like a constructor call to itself, and this goes
on infinite times, hence it must be passed by reference, so that the constructor is not called.
12. Which object will be created first?

class student
{
int marks;
};
student s1, s2, s3;

a) s1 then s2 then s3
b) s3 then s2 then s1
c) s2 then s3 then s1
d) all are created at same time
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: The objects are created in the sequence of how they are written. This happens
because the constructors are called in the sequence of how the objects are mentioned. This
is done in sequence.

15. For constructor overloading, each constructor must differ in ___________ and
__________
a) Number of arguments and type of arguments
b) Number of arguments and return type
c) Return type and type of arguments
d) Return type and definition
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: Each constructor must differ in the number of arguments it accepts and the
type of arguments. This actually defines the constructor signature. This helps to remove the
ambiguity and define a unique constructor as required.

1. How many types of constructors are available, in general, in any language?

a) 2
b) 3
c) 4
d) 5
View Answer
Answer: b
Explanation: There are 3 types of constructors in general, namely, default constructors,
parameterized constructors and copy constructors. Default one is called whenever an object
is created without arguments.

1. Copy constructor is a constructor which ________________

a) Creates an object by copying values from any other object of same class
b) Creates an object by copying values from first object created for that class
c) Creates an object by copying values from another object of another class
d) Creates an object by initializing it with another previously created object of same class
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: The object that has to be copied to new object must be previously created. The
new object gets initialized with the same values as that of the object mentioned for being
copied. The exact copy is made with values.

2. The copy constructor can be used to ____________

a) Initialize one object from another object of same type
b) Initialize one object from another object of different type
c) Initialize more than one object from another object of same type at a time
d) Initialize all the objects of a class to another object of another class
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: The copy constructor has the most basic function to initialize the members of
an object with same values as that of some previously created object. The object must be of
same class.

4. The copy constructors can be used to ________

a) Copy an object so that it can be passed to a class
b) Copy an object so that it can be passed to a function
c) Copy an object so that it can be passed to another primitive type variable
d) Copy an object for type casting
View Answer
Answer: b
Explanation: When an object is passed to a function, actually its copy is made in the
function. To copy the values, copy constructor is used. Hence the object being passed and
object being used in function are different.
7. If a class implements some dynamic memory allocations and pointers then
_____________
a) Copy constructor must be defined
b) Copy constructor must not be defined
c) Copy constructor can’t be defined
d) Copy constructor will not be used
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: In the case where dynamic memory allocation is used, the copy constructor
definition must be given. The implicit copy constructor is not capable of manipulating the
dynamic memory and pointers. Explicit definition allows to manipulate the data as required.

8. What is the syntax of copy constructor?

a) classname (classname &obj){ /*constructor definition*/ }
b) classname (cont classname obj){ /*constructor definition*/ }
c) classname (cont classname &obj){ /*constructor definition*/ }
d) classname (cont &obj){ /*constructor definition*/ }
View Answer
Answer: c
Explanation: The syntax must contain the class name first, followed by the classname as
type and &object within parenthesis. Then comes the constructor body. The definition can
be given as per requirements.
11. Copy constructor will be called whenever the compiler __________
a) Generates implicit code
b) Generates member function calls
c) Generates temporary object
d) Generates object operations
View Answer
Answer: c
Explanation: Whenever the compiler creates a temporary object, copy constructor is used to
copy the values from existing object to the temporary object.

Object Oriented Programming using C++ Questions

and Answers – Destructors
1. Which among the following describes a destructor?
a) A special function that is called to free the resources, acquired by the object
b) A special function that is called to delete the class
c) A special function that is called anytime to delete an object
d) A special function that is called to delete all the objects of a class
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: It is used to free the resources that the object might had used in its lifespan.
The destructors are called implicitly whenever an object’s life ends.

2. When a destructor is called?

a) After the end of object life
b) Anytime in between object’s lifespan
c) At end of whole program
d) Just before the end of object life
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: The destructor is called just before the object go out of scope or just before its
life ends. This is done to ensure that all the resources reserved for the object are used and
at last, are made free for others.

4. If in multiple inheritance, class C inherits class B, and Class B inherits class A. In which
sequence are their destructors called if an object of class C was declared?
a) ~C() then ~B() then ~A()
b) ~B() then ~C() then ~A()
c) ~A() then ~B() then ~C()
d) ~C() then ~A() then ~B()
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: The destructors are always called in the reverse order of how the constructors
were called. Here class A constructor would have been created first if Class C object is
declared. Hence class A destructor is called at last.

5. Choose the correct sequence of destructors being called for the following code.

class A{ };
class B{ };
class C: public A, public B{ };

a) ~A(), ~B(), ~C()

b) ~B(), ~C(), ~A()
c) ~A(), ~C(), ~B()
d) ~C(), ~B(), ~A()
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: In multiple inheritance, the constructors are called in the sequence of how they
are written in inheritance sequence. And the destructors will be called in the reverse order.
This can be cross verified just by printing a message from each destructor defined in
classes.

9. Destructors can be ________

a) Abstract type
b) Virtual
c) Void
d) Any type depending on situation
View Answer
Answer: b
Explanation: The destructors can be virtual. It is actually advised to keep the destructors
virtual always. This is done to suppress the problems that may arise if inheritance is
involved.
13. Which class destructor will be called first, when following code go out of scope?

class A{ };
class B{ };
class C: public B{ };
A a;
B b;
C c;

a) ~A()
b) ~B()
c) ~C()
d) ~B() and ~C()
View Answer
Answer: c
Explanation: The constructor that would have created at last, its destructor will be called first
when the code goes out of scope. This will help the program to manage the resources more
efficiently.
