Multiple choice java 

public class Yippee2 {
  static public void main(String [] yahoo) {
  for(int x = 1; x < yahoo.length; x++) {
  System.out.print(yahoo[x] + " ");
  }
 }
}

and the command line invocation: java Yippee2 a b c What is the result?

  1. a b

  2. b c

  3. a b c

  4. Compilation fails
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Java command line arguments passed to the main method do not include the class name itself, so yahoo contains ["a", "b", "c"]. The loop starts at index 1 (x = 1), skipping yahoo[0] ("a"), thus printing yahoo[1] ("b") and yahoo[2] ("c") separated by spaces.

AI explanation

To determine the result of the given code and command line invocation, let's go through each option:

Option A) a b - This option is incorrect because it does not include the last element c.

Option B) b c - This option is correct because the code prints the elements starting from index 1 (yahoo[1]) to the last index (yahoo.length - 1). In this case, yahoo[1] is b and yahoo[2] is c. Therefore, the output will be b c.

Option C) a b c - This option is incorrect because it includes the first element a, which is not printed by the code.

Option D) Compilation fails - This option is incorrect because the code does not have any compilation errors. It is a valid Java code.

The correct answer is B. The code will output b c.
