Discussion Forum : Flow Control - Finding the output (Q.No. 7)
7.
What will be the output of the program?
public class If1
{
static boolean b;
public static void main(String [] args)
{
short hand = 42;
if ( hand < 50 && !b ) /* Line 7 */
hand++;
if ( hand > 50 ); /* Line 9 */
else if ( hand > 40 )
{
hand += 7;
hand++;
}
else
--hand;
System.out.println(hand);
}
}
Answer: Option
Explanation:
In Java, boolean instance variables are initialized to false, so the if test on line 7 is true and hand is incremented. Line 9 is legal syntax, a do nothing statement. The else-if is true so hand has 7 added to it and is then incremented.

In line 9 as it is a legal statement why it would go for else if?

@All.
I think the line 9 condition is not satisfied. Am I right?
