  • C 6 ✔ ✖
Correct Answer: Option C

Explanation

The compareTo() method compares two strings lexicographically.

  • "ANGER".compareTo("ANGEL") compares characters at each position.

  • 'R' - 'L' = 82 - 76 = 6, so the result is 6.

  • Since "ANGER" comes after "ANGEL" lexicographically, the result should be positive.

  • Correct answer: (c) 6 (Correction from previous choice!)
