What will be the output of the program?
class BoolArray { boolean [] b = new boolean[3]; int count = 0; void set(boolean [] x, int i) { x[i] = true; ++count; } public static void main(String [] args) { BoolArray ba = new BoolArray(); ba.set(ba.b, 0); ba.set(ba.b, 2); ba.test(); } void test() { if ( b[0] && b[1] | b[2] ) count++; if ( b[1] && b[(++count - 2)] ) count += 7; System.out.println("count = " + count); } }
Answer : Option C
Explanation :
The reference variables b and x both refer to the same boolean array. count is incremented for each call to the set() method, and once again when the first if test is true. Because of the && short circuit operator, count is not incremented during the second if test.
