    Answer : Option D

    Explanation :

    The casting to an int is a smokescreen. Use a process of elimination to answer this question:

    Option D is the correct answer, it is syntathecially correct and will consistently return a value less than d.

    Option A and B are wrong because both the min() and max() methods require 2 arguments whereas here they are passed only one parameter.

    Option C is wrong because it could return a value greater than d (if d was negative).
