2 public classes in the exam

[sopal Pal]

Hi
I was doing the Mater Exam in K&B and realised one of the questions had
2 public classes (outer). Nothing was metioned about the files in which the classes were declared.
- In the answer there was one choice that said - compiler error, but that compiler error did not mention anything about 2 public classes in a file.
I assumed that the classes were in 2 different files and proceeded to answer the question.
Is this a correct assumption for the actual test.
Thanks for your time and help

yes

Thanks for the reply.
I had read somewhere, that there could be cases in the exam where none of the options given are correct. Under that circumstances, it is best to leave the question alone - answered.
Is that correct ?
Thanks again

Hi Sopal
I would suggest that in case you think that none of the options are correct or more/less than the asked options are correct then go by your instinct, think what the paper setter might have thought about this question.

When I took the test it did not permit me to finish unless every question was answered so I would say that you are incorrect.

I'm going out on a limb here because I either don't know or don't remember the question, but were the two classes each numbered starting at 1 (or within different sequences that each started at line 1)? Remember how they described the line numbering convention, so if you have two line 1 entries, that would indicate two separate files in all likelihood.

This is on Q:47 for exam 310-035
This question reads as follows : ( Also there are no line numbers alongside)
Given the following
public class A {
public void m1(){
System.out.print("ma");
}
}
public class B extends A{
public static void main(String [] args){
A a = new B();
a.m1();
}
public void m1(){
{
System.out.print("mb");
}
}
