Ernest Friedman-Hill wrote:In English, everything that is required is allowed, by definition. It's what you'd call a tautology -- a statement that's true by necessity or by virtue of its logical form. Like it or not, it's true, and the test authors believe it to be true as well.
Roel De Nijs wrote:For me it's the interpretation of the word "allowed" (which might be related to the translation). According to answer option A (and my interpretation of "allowed") I can handle a checked exception, or I can declare a checked exception, or I can do nothing with the checked exception; all three are just fine.
Guillermo Ishi wrote:The way I would interpret "Checked exceptions are allowed to be handled or declared" is like "Checked exceptions can be either handled or declared." That statement is correct.

If that is how you interpret it then the statement is not correct because checked exceptions can be handled and be declared as well at the same time.

Answer me this -- If I change "Checked exceptions are allowed to be handled or declared" to "You are allowed to handle or declare checked exceptions" does it mean something different to you? The first thing has a technical glitch, but I know she meant the second thing.

I'll bite. What's the difference between those two? The fact that I don't see the difference seems like the key to why I am having trouble following this thread. And since they mean the same thing to me, I clearly mean the second thing

If I say "Paul can either be punched or kicked" it doesn't mean he can't be punched and kicked at the same timeBut if Paul says "Either punch me or kick me" it means he just wants one or the other...

Maybe, but there are some subtleties in there. If I say "Your choices are either rocket or torpedo" I wouldn't rely on that to mean you can't hit the ship with both. But if I say "Choose either rocket or torpedo" it always means you can only have one or the other.
