MysteryClass
-first: int
-second: double;
+MysteryClass()
+MysteryClass(int)
+MysteryClass(double) ;
+MysteryClass(int, double)
+setData(int, double) : void
+getFirst() : int

Which of the following would be a default constructor for the class MysteryClass shown in the accompanying figure?

A) public MysteryClass() { setData(0, 0.0) ; }
B) public MysteryClass(0, 0.0) { setData() ; }
C) public MysteryClass(0) { setData(0, 0.0) ; }
D) private MysteryClass(10) { setData() ; }

Default Constructor

A constructor that takes no arguments. In Java, if no constructors are explicitly defined for a class, the compiler provides a default constructor.

Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
Option A provides a default constructor that sets the initial values of the instance variables to 0 and 0.0, which is the default value for int and double respectively. This constructor calls the setData method to initialize the instance variables. Hence, option A is the correct choice for a default constructor.
