	Great quiz! Good review for the AP test lol.

	I was pleased to have gotten all of them without having ever actually looked at the Java language. Granted, most of them are straight out of C...

	I knew knowing Fortran wouldn't be totally useless!

	whew! tough being that I took 1 programming class (C++) 15 years ago, but I got 5 right anyway. Haven't thought of these in a while or seen them here!

	This seems trivially easy for programmers and ridiculously hard for non-programmers.

	"1,2,3,4" really isn't a very good hint for int; byte, short, and long can also hold those values; depending on your interpretation, double, float, and char could as well.

	I can't believe I missed byte, short and long. And I call myself a programmer! :(

	@Noether "1,2,3,4" cannot be doubles or floats. "1.0,2.0,3.0,4.0" can be doubles. Also, it can't exactly be a char either. "'1','2','3','4'" could be chars. The first set can be treated as chars, doubles, or floats, but would be stored as above.

	14 seconds. What do I win?

	I feel like this is one of those quizes that is fairly easy if you have taken any programming courses, but it would utterly confuse someone who stumbled upon it.

	8 answers, 8 seconds, first try.

	I used to be a programmer, dealing with Java. 10 years later I've managed to forgot all but int, long and boolean. I have no idea how I didnt even think of short, but I take it as progress. :D Im gonna go and celebrate!
