Discussion Forum : Flow Control - Finding the output (Q.No. 20)
20.
What will be the output of the program?
int i = 0, j = 5;
tp: for (;;)
{
i++;
for (;;)
{
if(i > --j)
{
break tp;
}
}
System.out.println("i =" + i + ", j = " + j);
Answer: Option
Explanation:
If you examine the code carefully you will notice a missing curly bracket at the end of the code, this would cause the code to fail.

If compilation fails for the lack of the ending curly brace, compilation would fail for the lack of a main function. These questions imply the code snippets are just that - snippets - and so it would be perfectly reasonable to assume there is a curly brace later on in the code but not included in the snippet. That doesn't change the fact that the print statement is unreachable though.

No, I run that program it give error unreachable statement at
System.out.println("i =" + i + ", j = " + j);
System.out.println("i =" + i + ", j = " + j);

If curly brackets would have been there in corrrect pos then answer would be i= 1 and j=0.

There is no main method which is to be noticed.

There is no break; in the second eternity loop, which would make the System. Out. Println an unreachable statement.

Well, it would be better to ask the output without any missing curly brackets.
Then answer would be i = 0, j = 0, I guess.
Then answer would be i = 0, j = 0, I guess.
