The following code is intended to return only even numbers. If an even number is passed to the method, it should return that number. If an odd number or zero is passed, it should return the next highest even number.

Does the code work as intended?

Yes.
No, the mod function on line 3 should read number % 2 == 1 to find even numbers.
No, the else if on line 7 and the else on line 11 should just be if statements.
No. Zero will get returned on line 5 and not make it to line 7.

No. Zero will get returned on line 5 and not make it to line 7

What values for x and y will cause the program to execute the /* missing code */?

x = 12
y = 12

Look at the following code and explain what the result is for each print statement and why.

System.out.println(s1 == s2);

// True: s2 is refering to the same object as s1, so the “==” operator will return as true since the two strings are referring to the same address.

System.out.println(s1 == s3);

// False: s1 is a string while s3 is an object, so they are not referring to the memory address

System.out.println(s4 == s3);

// False: since s4 is a new string - though it is referring to the value of s3 - it is allocated its own address; hence they are not the same memory location and therefore not equal.

System.out.println(s4 == s5);

// True: since s5 is referring to the memory of s4 so the address comparison is true (compared to the line above where the content was equal but not the address)

System.out.println(s1.equals(s2));

// True: the value is true since s1 and s2 have the same content so they content is equal.

System.out.println(s1.equals(s3));

// True: though one is a string and one is an object, both have the same content, notably “Hello,” so they will be true through a content comparison

What are rational operators?

==, !=, , <=, >=

Allow for the comparison or primitive type values.

Results are stored as Boolean values

What are Boolean operators?

Booleans can also use Relational Operators to store true/false information

Relational Operators are used to comparing the values of two expressions

What is an equality operator?

Returns true is both the operators are referring to the same object

What are *if* statements?

**if Statements** are used when there are a set of statements that should be executed only when certain conditions are met. **if (boolean expression)** **{** **//execute statements if condition is true** **}** * the boolean expression is a condition that is being evaluated in the if statement * The condition must be within in the parentheses()

What are *if-else* statements?

**if (boolean expression)** **{** **//execute statements if condition is true** **}** **else** **{** **//execute statement if condition is false** **}** * Fix inefficiency by using else statements * Execute the initial boolean expression evaluates to false * simplifies execution steps

What are *else-if* statements?

if(booleanExpression) { //code to execute if the boolean expression is true! } else if(booleanExpressionTwo) { //code will execute if else if boolean statement is true! //Only test is boolean expression one is false } else { //code will execute if all boolean expressions are false } when there are more than two possible conditional scenarios else if Statements allow us to incorporate additional conditions to our if-else statements!

What are logical operators?

Can be used to connect boolean expressions to make more complex expressions: NOT: **! -**! evaluates a condition to the opposite boolean value AND: **&&** - && evaluates whether all conditions are true OR: **||** - II evaluate whether one condition is true

What are Short Circuit Evalution?

Evaluating only the first boolean expression

What are Nested if statements?

**Nesting if statements** mean we can place if statements within other if statements

What is De Morgan's Law?

* Show how we can negate "and"s and "or"s in compound Boolean statements:* * not(A and B) is the same as (not A) or (not B): **!(A && B) == !A || !B** * not(A or B) is the same as (not A) and (not B): **!(A || B) == !A && !B**

What are aliases?

Two objects references are considered aliases when they both refer to the same object

What is reference equality?

Equality operator (==) compares the reference (address in memory) of 2 object

What is logical equality?

Compares the data of the objects instead of the value of the references. Uses the **.equals()** method

How does object storage work?

In memory, the variable simply stores a location or a reference to where the actual object data is located Variable points to the object data

What is the difference between == and .equals() in java?

In general, both equals() and “==” operator in Java are used to compare objects to check equality but here are some of the differences between the two: * The main difference between the .equals() method and == operator is that one is a method and the other is the operator. * We can use == operators for reference comparison (address comparison) and .equals() method for content comparison. In simple words, == checks if both objects point to the same memory location whereas .equals() evaluates to the comparison of values in the objects.
