The following code initializes three types representing the colors: red, green and blue.

type ColorType = [string, number, number, number];
let red: ColorType = ['Red', 1, 0, 0];
let green: [string, number, number, number] = ['Green', 0, 1, 0];
let blue = ['Blue', 0, 0, 1];

The following code initializes strings as three different types and attempts to make them uppercase. Which statements about the behavior of the typescript compiler are correct?

let stringType: string = "string type";
stringType.toUpperCase();

let anyType: any = "any type";
anyType.toUpper();
anyType.toUpperCase();

let objectType: Object = "object type";
objectType.toUpperCase();

The Circle class is used in a prototype for a game engine. Finish the class so that:

• It inherits from the GameObject class
• It has one more public field, radius
• It has only one constructor, that sets the radius, and sets the x and y fields using the GameObject class

For example, executing the following code:

let circle = new Circle(10, 50, 8);
console.log(circle.x, circle.y, circle.radius);

should print "10 50 8".

Your company assigns each customer a membership ID, and you are implementing a check digit for those IDs.

The check digit should be calculated by adding up all digits in each membership ID. If the result of the sum is a number with more than a single digit, another iteration is required, and the digits of the result should also be added together. This process should repeat until a single-digit number is calculated.

For example, for the membership ID "55555" the sum of all digits is 25. Because this is not a single-digit number, 2 and 5 would be added, and the result, 7, would be the check digit.

Extend the Permission enum so that it has the following fields:

• Read, which should have a value of 1
• Write, which should have a value of 2
• Execute, which should have a value of 4

Extend the getPermissionList function so that it accepts a combination of several Permission enums and returns an array of strings which are the names of the Permissions.

For example, executing:

getPermissionList(Permission.Read | Permission.Write);

should return [ 'Read', 'Write' ] in any order.

Consider the following two base classes, Positionable and Rotatable, and MovingObject derived class:

class Positionable {
    locationX: number;
    locationY: number;
}

class Rotatable {
    orientation: number;
    rotate(orientation: number) {
        this.orientation += orientation;
    }
    align(rotatable: Rotatable) {
        this.orientation = rotatable.orientation;
    }
}

class MovingObject implements Positionable, Rotatable {
    locationX: number = 0;
    locationY: number = 0;
    orientation: number = 0;
    rotate: (orientation: number) => void;
}

applyMixins(MovingObject, [Positionable, Rotatable]);
function applyMixins(derivedCtor: any, baseCtors: any[]) {
    baseCtors.forEach(baseCtor => {
        Object.getOwnPropertyNames(baseCtor.prototype).forEach(name => {
            derivedCtor.prototype[name] = baseCtor.prototype[name];
        });
    });
}

let mover = new MovingObject(); 
mover.rotate(30);
