Declarations and Access Control - Programming

Q1:

What is the widest valid returnType for methodA in line 3? 
public class ReturnIt 
{ 
    returnType methodA(byte x, double y) /* Line 3 */
    { 
        return (long)x / y * 2; 
    } 
}

A int

B byte

C long

D double

ANS:A - int

However A, B and C are all wrong. Each of these would result in a narrowing conversion. Whereas we want a widening conversion, therefore the only correct answer is D. Don't be put off by the long cast, this applies only to the variable x and not the rest of the expression. It is the variable y (of type double) that forces the widening conversion to double. Java's widening conversions are: - From a byte to a short, an int, a long, a float, or a double. - From a short, an int, a long, a float, or a double. - From a char to an int, a long, a float, or a double. - From an int to a long, a float, or a double. - From a long to a float, or a double. - From a float to a double.
