d) None of the mentioned

3. Which of the following is true about factory method?
a) A factory method is a non-constructor operation that creates and returns class instances
b) Factory methods are widely used in mid-level design patterns and in object-oriented programming in general
c) Factory methods create new instances using constructors or cloning, so they do not rely on any special technique for class instantiation

4. When a generator assumes responsibility for product object creation in a factory method,which of the following capabilities become available?
a) Access to product constructors can be restricted
b) Private data can be provided to new product objects
c) Product objects can be configured after creation
d) All of the mentioned

b) Product Configuration Control
c) Client and Product Decoupling
d) All of the mentioned
View Answer

6. The Factory patterns decouple clients from products by taking advantage of interfaces in two ways?
a) The generator class with the factory methods cannot be changed, disallowing variability in factory method implementations
b) Instances of a variety of classes that implement the product interface can be returned by a factory method, allowing great flexibility in results
c) All of the mentioned
d) None of the mentioned
View Answer

7. What are the types of factory pattern?

b) Abstract Method
c) All of the mentioned
d) None of the mentioned
View Answer

8. Which class that can have only one instance?
a) Adaptor Class
b) Proxy Class
c) Singleton Class
d) Factory class
View Answer

9. What are the drawbacks for singleton class?
a) Many languages do not allow classes to be values assignable to variables.
b) Singleton classes can be subclassed, and the singleton factory method can return a sub-class instance
c) Classes can easily replace only single instances
d) All of the internship
View Answer

10. Which of the following are true for the singleton class?
a) Singleton classes should be used whenever it is important that only a single instance of a class exist and that that single instance be widely accessible
b) The Singleton pattern can also be used, with slight modifications, when a limited number of instances greater than one are desired
c) Access restrictions are usually easy to add by restricting the visibility of either the class or the factory method
d) All of the mentioned
