1. What is the HTML tag under which one can write the JavaScript code?
A) <javascript>
B) <scripted>
C) <script>
D) <js>














Ans: Option C
Explanation: If we want to write a JavaScript code under HTML tag, you will have to use the “script” tag.


2. Choose the correct JavaScript syntax to change the content of the following HTML code.




<p id="geek">GeeksforGeeks</p> 

A) document.getElement(“geek”).innerHTML=”I am a Geek”;
B) document.getElementById(“geek”).innerHTML=”I am a Geek”;
C) document.getId(“geek”)=”I am a Geek”;
D) document.getElementById(“geek”).innerHTML=I am a Geek;



Ans: B
Explanation: The correct syntax to access the element is document.getElementById(“geek”). Here we want to access the content written under that id, so we used .innerHTML to specify that and finally we replaced the content with whatever is written inside the quotes.

A. alertbox(“GeeksforGeeks”);

filter_none


<script type="text/javascript"> 
a = 8 + "8"; 
document.write(a); 
</script> 

A) 16
B) Complilation Error
C) 88
D) Run Time Error

Ans: Option C
Explanation: In the above given code, 8+”8″ have first integer and second string data types. Rather than adding the two numbers, it concatenated the two.


7. Predict the output of the following JavaScript code.

<script type="text/javascript"> 
var a="GeeksforGeeks"; 
var x=a.lastIndexOf("G"); 
document.write(x); 
</script> 

A) 8
B) 0
C) 9

9. Predict the output of the following JavaScript code.
filter_none

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript"> 
var a = "GeeksforGeeks"; 
var result = a.substring(4, 5); 
document.write(result); 
  
</script> 

A. sf
B. ks
C. s
D. k



Ans: C
Explanation: The substring command selects the substring starting from 4 to 5, excluding the 5th index. The indexing starts from 0. So, the output here is just “s” rather than sf.

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript"> 
  
var x=5; 
var y=6; 
var res=eval("x*y");

</script> 

A. “30”
B. 30
C. 5*6
D. “5*6”






Ans: B
Explanation: eval command will evaluate the operation. Here it is 5*6=30.
