b.  it prints s out forwards

c.  it prints s out backwards after skipping the last character

d.  it prints s out backwards but does not print the 0th character

15)  The following nested loop structure will execute the inner most statement (x++) how many times?

True/False Questions:

 

 

16) In Java, the symbol “=” and the symbol “= =” are used synonymously (interchangeably).

 

17) If the integer variable answer is 5, then after answer %= 8; is executed, answer will be 3.

 

18)  Suppose that String name = "Frank  Zappa".  Then the instruction;

                name.toUpperCase( ).replace('A', 'I'); 

will return “FrInk  ZIppI”.

 

19)  The following for-loop is an infinite loop.

for(int j = 0; j < 1000; ) i++;

 

20)   The following loop is syntactically valid.

for(int j = 0; j < 1000; j++) j--;

 

For question 21, assume that boolean done = false, int x = 10, int y = 11, String s = "Help" and String t = "Goodbye".

 

21)  The expression (!done && x <= y) is true.

 

22)  In Java, it is possible to create an infinite loop out of while loops, but not for-loops.

 

23)  Any for loop can be written as a while loop.

 

24)  The third portion of a for loop, the increment portion, must increment or decrement a variable by 1.

 

25)  When reading an unknown amount of input from the user, a for loop would be the best choice.
