I do not agree with the author, We can have over loaded constructor, taking different parameters. I think B is the answer as a class can have private constructor.Hari

Two statements are INVALID:

B -- since constructors can be protected / private. A class with a protected constructor can be instantiated through a derived class. A class with a private constructor can be instantiated through a friend class / friend function.

C -- since constructors can be and very often are overloaded.

Even statement A should be rewritten as follows to make it valid -- Constructors MUST HAVE the same name as class name.

C is the correct Answer because constructor can be overloaded.. 

Code
  1. class A

    2. 

  2. {

    3. 

  3.  public A()

    4. 

  4.  {

    5. 

  5.   //default constructor //overloaded constructor

    6. 

  6.  }

    7. 

  7. }

C is the right Answer.
Constructors can be overloaded with multiple parameters.

Code
  1. span style="color: #ff0000;">"Total ""Example ""Deepak ", 16);

    2. 

  2.         }

    3. 

  3.     }

The correct answer is B: as constructors need not be public we can have private constructors also for instance a singleton object has a private constructor

Option C is invalid, because constructor can be parameterized, hence can be overloaded.

Code
  1. span style="color: #ff0000;">"""Constructor weight = {0}, name = {1}""Sam"

B is invalid as we can have private constructor in case of Singleton we use the same strategy.

B&C are wrong. B : In case of singleton we create a private constructur for class. A static method in this class calls the constructor nad returns the class instance. C : We can have any number of constructor for a class. Since the name of constructor is same as class multiple constructur is possible only with overloading.
