System.out.println(x*2);

Question

Give the output of the following program segment. How many times is the loop executed?

for(x=10; x>20; x++)
System.out.println(x);
System.out.println(x*2);

Accepted Answer

Step-by-Step Execution:

Initialization: x = 10
Condition Check: x > 20

Since 10 > 20 is false, the loop never executes.


Loop Execution:

Since the condition fails in the first check, the loop does not run even once.


After the Loop:

The statement System.out.println(x*2); is outside the loop, so it executes.
Since x was initialized to 10 and was never modified, x*2 = 10 * 2 = 20 is printed.
