String str = \"Hello World!\";

int test = 6;

String output = \"\";

if (test >= str.length()) {

    output = \"Bigger!\";

}

else {

    output = \"Smaller!\";

}

For the following program segment, give the output produced by the segment:

String theBard=\"Alas poor Yorick\"; String theSubBard=theBard.substring(5,9); String theCliche=\"A poor workman blames his tools\"; String theSubCliche=theCliche.substring(2,7); String output=\"The result is: \"; if (theSubBard.equals(theSubCliche)) {     output = output + \" a cliched phrase!\"; } else {     output = output + \" a work of genius!\"; } System.out.println(output);

Solution

For first four parts:

str = \"Hello World\"

test = 6

output = \"\"

as test is less than str.length. Therefore, value fo these variables don\'t change.

For last two parts, output will be:

str = \"Hello World\"

test = 6

output = \"Smaller!\"

as else part will be executed that cause a change to the value of output.
