Hi there

I guess there is a small typo in this question. The example ist based on the image above. On the image the class-name is "Stock.class". But in the question itself, there is "class StockQuote".

Best regards

That is because there are two different classes - Stock.class is present in the location given in the picture and StockQuote is yet to be compiled (as per the question) and so is not shown in the the picture.

HTH,

Thanks for the quick answer. That was not so clear for me when I made the test. Now its clear.

MY bad

when I type the method with the throws IOException i get a compilation error stating" cannot find symbol" but as
soon as I type import java.io the compilation error is no longer there.
One of the options given as a potential answer is :
It is not required to import java.io.* or import java.io.IOException because java.io package is imported automatically.
Why do I get a Compilation Error if the above statement says that it is automatically imported

That is an incorrect option. You do need import java.io.* or import java.io.IOException if you are using IOException in your code.

Importing com package (import com.*;) isn't going to import all the subpackages? Or should I specify it explicitly?

Best regards.

No, please go through a book to read about it before attempting mock exams. Or try this page: https://beginnersbook.com/2013/03/packages-in-java/
