  2. To create an object when the object needs to be created

  3. To initialize the data members of an object when it is created

  4. None of the Above

Show me the answer

Answer: 1) To destroy an object when the lifetime of the object ends

Explanation:

  • A destructor is used to:

    • Release resources (e.g., memory, file handles) allocated to an object.

    • Perform cleanup tasks when the object goes out of scope or is explicitly deleted.

  • Therefore, the correct answer is To destroy an object when the lifetime of the object ends.

102. A destructor is preceded by:

  1. /

  2. |

  3. ?

  4. ~

Show me the answer

Answer: 4) ~

Explanation:

  • A destructor is preceded by the tilde symbol (~).

  • For example:

    class MyClass {
public:
    ~MyClass() {
        cout << "Destructor called!";
    }
};

  • Therefore, the correct answer is ~.

103. Which of the following statements is correct?

  1. A constructor has the same name as that of the class

  2. A destructor has the same name as that of the class with a tilde symbol at the beginning.

  3. A constructor is a member function of the class

  4. All of the Above

Show me the answer

Answer: 4) All of the Above

Explanation:

  • All the statements are correct:

    • A constructor has the same name as the class.

    • A destructor has the same name as the class but is preceded by a tilde (~).

    • Both constructors and destructors are member functions of the class.

  • Therefore, the correct answer is All of the Above.

104. When an object goes out of scope, which of the following gets called?

  1. Constructor
