Chapter 26: I Love This Class (Creating a Class)
TRUE/FALSE
1. The text boxes, labels, and buttons included in most Windows applications are objects.
2. A class itself is not an object; only an instance of a class is an object.
3. In addition to using Visual Basic classes, you also can define your own classes.
4. When you define a class using the Class statement, you are required to use Pascal case for class names.
5. Pascal case means you capitalize the first letter in the name and the first letter in any subsequent words
in the name.
6. When naming the Private variables in a class, many programmers use the underscore as the first
character and then use camel case for the remainder of the name.
7. When an application instantiates an object, only the Public members of the object’s class are made
available to the application.
8. The Get block in a Property procedure contains the Set statement, which begins with the keyword Set
and ends with the keywords End Set.
9. You can enter one or more instructions between the Set and End Set clauses.
10. A class can have more than one default constructor.
11. A class can contain methods other than constructors.
12. Constructors can be either Sub or Function procedures.
13. After defining a class, you can use it to instantiate a maximum of one object.
14. The real advantage of object-oriented programming is the ability to reuse a class—for example, use it
in a different way or in a different application.
