What will be the output of the program?

public class Switch2 
{
    final static short x = 2;
    public static int y = 0;
    public static void main(String [] args) 
    {
        for (int z=0; z < 3; z++) 
        {
            switch (z) 
            {
                case x: System.out.print('0 ');
                case x-1: System.out.print('1 ');
                case x-2: System.out.print('2 ');
            }
        }
    }
}

ANS:A - 0 1 2

The case expressions are all legal because x is marked final, which means the expressions can be evaluated at compile time. In the first iteration of the for loop case x-2 matches, so 2 is printed. In the second iteration, x-1 is matched so 1 and 2 are printed (remember, once a match is found all remaining statements are executed until a break statement is encountered). In the third iteration, x is matched. So 0 1 and 2 are printed.
