Insert code into the equalsImpl() method in order to provide a correct implementation of the equals() method.

 public class Pair {     int a, b;     public Pair(int a, int b) {         this.a = a;         this.b = b;     }     public boolean equals(Object o) {         return (this == o)  (o instanceof Pair) && equalsImpl((Pair) o);     }     private boolean equalsImpl(Pair o) {         // ... PROVIDE IMPLEMENTATION HERE ...     } } 

Select the three correct answers.

  1. return a == o.a b == o.b;

  2. return false;

  3. return a >= o.a;

  4. return a == o.a;

  5. return a == o.a && b == o.b;

Which code provides a correct implementation of the hashCode() method in the following program?

 import java.util.*; public class Measurement {     int count;     int accumulated;     public Measurement() {}     public void record(int v) {         count++;         accumulated += v;     }     public int average() {         return accumulated/count;     }     public boolean equals(Object other) {         if (this == other)             return true;         if (!(other instanceof Measurement))             return false;         Measurement o = (Measurement) other;         if (count != 0 && o.count != 0)             return average() == o.average();         return count == o.count;     }     public int hashCode() {         // ... PROVIDE IMPLEMENTATION HERE ...     } } 

Select the two correct answers.

  1. return 31337;

  2. return accumulated / count;

  3. return (count << 16) ^ accumulated;

  4. return ~accumulated;

  5. return count == 0 ? 0 : average();
