    🔗
    int k = 0;
while (k < 10) {
   System.out.print((k % 3) + " ");
   if ((k % 3) == 0)
      k = k + 2;

    Q2: What are the first and last numbers printed by the following code segment?
    🔗
    int number = 15;
while (number < 28) {
   System.out.println(number);
   number++;
}
    • First: 15; Last: 27

    Q3: What is printed as a result of executing the following code segment?
    🔗
    int alpha = 24;
int beta = 30;
while (beta != 0) {
   int rho = alpha % beta;
   alpha = beta;
   beta = rho;
}
System.out.println(alpha);

    Q4: Considering the following code, which best describes what the code does?
    🔗
    int var = 0;
int num = 50;
for (int x = 1; x <= num; x += 2) {
   var = var + x;
}
System.out.println(var);
    • Prints the value in num
      🔗
    • Prints the sum of all the integers between 1 and num, inclusive
      🔗
    • Prints the sum of all even integers between 1 and num, inclusive
      🔗
    • Prints the sum of all odd integers between 1 and num, inclusive
      🔗
    • Nothing is printed, it is an infinite loop

    Q5: What is printed as a result of executing the following code segment?
    🔗
    int typeA = 0;
int typeB = 0;
int typeC = 0;
for (int k = 1; k <= 50; k++) {
   if (k % 2 == 0 && k % 5 == 0)
      typeA++;
   if (k % 2 == 0)
      typeB++;
   if (k % 5 == 0)
      typeC++;
}
System.out.println("%d %d %d", typeA, typeB, typeC);
