Ravi runs the following Java code but encounters an error. Identify the statement causing the issue, correct it, and ensure the output is "Hungry".
char h = 'Y';
if (h == 'y' || 'Y')
System.out.println("Hungry");
else
System.out.println("Not Hungry");
Answer
char h = 'Y';
if (h == 'y' || h == 'Y') {
System.out.println("Hungry");
} else {
System.out.println("Not Hungry");
}
Reason — The problem lies in the condition of the if statement:
if (h == 'y' || 'Y')
The condition 'Y' is invalid because || expects boolean expressions on both sides. 'Y' alone is a char, not a boolean, causing a compilation error.
The statement can be corrected as:
if (h == 'y' || h == 'Y')
Now both sides of || are boolean expressions.
