return type - doubt

[muskaan gaffor]

public class Currency {
private String country, name;
public getCountry() { return country; }//line # 1
}and:
class Dollar extends Currency {
public String getCountry() { return super.country; }
}

class Inr extends Currency {
public String getCountry(String timeZone) {
return super.getCountry();
}
}
Which statements are correct? (Choose two.)
A. Doller returns correct values.
B. Inr returns correct values.
C. An exception is thrown at runtime.
D. Doller and Inr both return correct values.
E. Compilation fails because of an error at line 25.
F. Compilation fails because of an error at line 30.

b and e is correct answer.

Doubt:
How B is correct? line # 1 is not the constructor...but will the method have such kind of syntax?? (without return type)?? i got confusted.
Plzz help me out !!!

Mussy.

Muskaan, That's great

As the options say the errors with line numbers but the source code is incomplete. Kindly ensure the same for future posts!

Ooopps!!! I am sorry...

the complete code is..

public class Currency {
private String country, name;
public getCountry() { return country; }//line # 1
}
class Dollar extends Currency {
public String getCountry() { return super.country; }// line # 2
}

class Inr extends Currency {
public String getCountry(String timeZone) {
return super.getCountry();//line # 3
}
}
Which statements are correct? (Choose two.)
A. Doller returns correct values.
B. Inr returns correct values.
C. An exception is thrown at runtime.
D. Doller and Inr both return correct values.
E. Compilation fails because of an error at line 2.
F. Compilation fails because of an error at line 3.

the code wont compile cause of line # 1.
if the line # 1 is corrected as
public String getCountry() { return country; }//line # 1
}

then the answer is E
