Java Programming for Complete Beginners - Java 16 - Step 03 - If Else Statement – Puzzles

The video tutorial explores various code puzzles to understand nested if-else statements in Java. It emphasizes the importance of using blocks for readability and avoiding common mistakes like using assignment operators in conditions. Each puzzle demonstrates different aspects of conditional logic, highlighting how only one block executes in nested if-else structures. The tutorial concludes with a summary of best practices for writing clear and error-free code.

What happens when a condition in a nested if-else statement is met?

• The program crashes.

• All subsequent conditions are checked.

• Only the first true condition's block is executed.

• All conditions are ignored.

In Puzzle 2, why are both statements executed?

• They are independent statements.

• The condition is always true.

• The code is incorrect.

• They are part of the same block.

What is the result of Puzzle 3 when the initial condition is false?

• The program crashes.

• Nothing is printed.

• The program prints a default value.

• The console displays an error.

Why is it important to use block separators in conditional statements?

• To make the code run faster.

• To prevent syntax errors.

• To ensure only one statement is executed per condition.

• To make the code look neat.

What error occurs when using an assignment operator in a condition?

• The condition is ignored.

• The program prints a warning.

• A compilation error occurs.

• The program runs with incorrect logic.

In Java, what is required for a condition in an if statement?

• A character value.

• A string value.

• A boolean expression.

• An integer value.

What is the output when a statement is not enclosed in a block under an if condition?

• All statements are executed.

• Only the first statement is executed.

• No statements are executed.

• The program crashes.
