Discussion Forum : Flow Control - Finding the output (Q.No. 12)
Flow Control
12.
What will be the output of the program? 
int x = 3; 
int y = 1; 
if (x = y) /* Line 3 */
{
    System.out.println("x =" + x); 
}
x = 1
x = 3
Compilation fails.
The code runs with no output.
Answer: Option
Explanation:

Line 3 uses an assignment as opposed to comparison. Because of this, the if statement receives an integer value instead of a boolean. And so the compilation fails.

In C with IF statement, we can perform this assignment operation. Will this rule not work in java ?

Here should be use comparisation operator. We can't assign the value within the if () statement.
