Q1:

What will be the output of the program?
class Test 
{
    public static void main(String [] args) 
    {
        int x= 0;
        int y= 0;
        for (int z = 0; z < 5; z++) 
        {
            if (( ++x > 2 ) || (++y > 2)) 
            {
                x++;
            }
        }
    System.out.println(x + ' ' + y);
    }
}

A 5 3

B 8 2

C 8 3

D 8 5

ANS:A - 5 3

The first two iterations of the for loop both x and y are incremented. On the third iteration x is incremented, and for the first time becomes greater than 2. The short circuit or operator || keeps y from ever being incremented again and x is incremented twice on each of the last three iterations.
