            int x= 0;    
            int y= 0;       
            for (int z = 0; z 5; z++)                                                                                                          
            { 
                if (( ++x > 2 ) || (++y > 2))                
                {            
                    x++;       
                }        
            }   
         System.out.println(x + " " + y);

    Answer : Option B

    Explanation :

    The first two iterations of the for loop both x and y are incremented. On the third iteration x is incremented, and for the first time becomes greater than 2. The short circuit or operator || keeps y from ever being incremented again and x is incremented twice on each of the last three iterations.
