public void test(int x)
{
int odd = 1;
if(odd) /* Line 4 */
{
System.out.println("odd");
}
else

System.out.println("even");
}
}
Answer: Option
Explanation:
The compiler will complain because of incompatible types (line 4), the if expects a boolean but it gets an integer.

Integer can not behave like boolean. And there is not a complete condition statement in if condition.
So it will throw compilation error.
Thanks.

How it becomes compilation error? 0 if false otherwise true.

With in if condition boolean expression is given.

As far as I have learned, any number other than 0 in the if condition results in a true result. 0 returns false and hence in this case if should actually return true and print ODD.
Although, I am not sure if this is invalid incase of java.

What when we use while (1)?
That time it gives exact output in c++. It is not allowed in java.

In java the condition parameters are "true" and "false" i.e. in Boolean format.
But in C or C++ the positive integers are taken as true like.
If (500) // is taken as true in C language. So, Don't be confuse the feature of java and C.

Hi guys,
Option A is the correct answer, because there should be a Boolean expression within the brackets followed by "if". Here is an integer number (Odd) within the brackets. That's why it's compile error.

In line 4. There is no Boolean condition. It just an integer. That's why it is compile error.

How it is a compile error?

In C programming language while(1){} is a infinite loop. But in java while(1){} is a compilation error because in condition it expects either true of false(both keyword). So, the same c program equivalent code in java is while(true){} which represents infinite loop.
