Which version of Java introduced the Java Foundation Classes (JFC), including Swing?

  1. Java 1.0

  2. Java 1.1

  3. Java 2 (JDK 1.2)

  4. Java 3

The correct answer is: Java 2 (JDK 1.2)

The Java Foundation Classes (JFC) were first introduced in Java 2 (JDK 1.2). This means that options A, B, and D are incorrect as they are versions before Java 2. While Java 3 may seem like a reasonable answer, there is no official version of Java known as Java 3. It is important to pay attention to the version numbers and their corresponding features when trying to answer Java-related questions.
