What will be the output of the program?
class SC2 
{
    public static void main(String [] args) 
    {
        SC2 s = new SC2();
        s.start();
    }

    void start() 
    {
        int a = 3;
        int b = 4;
        System.out.print(" " + 7 + 2 + " ");
        System.out.print(a + b);
        System.out.print(" " + a + b + " ");
        System.out.print(foo() + a + b + " ");
        System.out.println(a + b + foo());
    }

    String foo() 
    {
        return "foo";
    }
}
9 7 7 foo 7 7foo
72 34 34 foo34 34foo
9 7 7 foo34 34foo
72 7 34 foo34 7foo
Answer: Option
Explanation:

Because all of these expressions use the + operator, there is no precedence to worry about and all of the expressions will be evaluated from left to right. If either operand being evaluated is a String, the + operator will concatenate the two operands; if both operands are numeric, the + operator will add the two operands.
