1.2.1. Expressions-WE2-P1¶
Subgoals for evaluating an assignment statement
Determine resultant data type of expression
Update variable for pre-increment or pre-decrement operators (side effect)
Evaluate arithmetic expression according to operator precedence
If an assignment statement (=), is Left Hand Side (LHS) a variable? Check data type of value against data type of variable.
Update variable for post-increment or post-decrement operators (side effect)
For all given problems below indicate if the code is valid or invalid. Each problem is independent of the others (e.g. Question 2 does not depend on Question 1, only the “Given” code).
Expressions-WE2-P1
Given
int alpha = 2, beta = 1, delta = 3, gamma;
final int eta = 10;
double omega = 2.5, theta = -1.3, kappa = 3.0, lambda, rho;
- valid
- invalid
Q11: gamma = beta + theta;
- valid
- invalid
Q12: eta = 42;
- valid
- invalid
Q13: rho = delta;
