Q541. Can we declare an array without assigning the size of an array?

Ans. No, It will throw compile time error saying "must provide either dimension expressions or an array initializer"

Alternatively we can provide array initializer like

String[] strArray = new String[]{"Buggy","Bread"};

which will initialize it to size 2 with values as "Buggy" and "Bread"

Q542. What is meant by "unreachable code" ? Can you write a code segment explaining this ?

Ans. Unreachable code is a code segment that can never be executed in any case. For example -

int x = 5;
return;
System.out.println(x);

In this code , 2nd line will return the control out of the method and hence 3rd line will never get executed and hence is unreachable code. This will be caught at compile time only.

Q544. Why doesn't this code give compile time error when we are clearly trying to add an integer element to an array of Strings

Object[] strArray = new String[2];
strArray[0] = 5;

Ans. Because the reference is of Object Array and the resolution of what it holds is identified at the runtime.

String[] strArray = new String[2];
strArray[0] = 5;

would have given the compile time array as the reference is of String array.

Q547. What will happen if there are no interfaces in Java ?

Ans. Abstract classes can take care of that to a certain extent. Though they are little heavier than Interfaces but An abstract class with all abstract methods and no instance variables will be able to help with everything that currently an interface does.

The only problem is that a class can only extend one class whereas it can implements multiple interfaces and that is the reason Interfaces were introduced in Java, i.e to get over the problem of multiple inheritance.
