Question

Please answer Questions 1 through 3 relate to the following code. ASSUME THERE ARE NO SYNTAX ERRORS IN THIS CODE.

string[] letters = { "s", "e", "n", "p", "m", "e", "", "i", "s", "s", "t", "g", "r", "", "", "r", "e" };

string result = aFunction(letters);

result = bFunction(letters);

outputLabel.Text = result;

private string aFunction(string[] values)

{

string something = "";

int counter = 0;

for (int I = 10; I > 3; I--)

{ counter = (I * 5) % 14;

something += values[counter];

}

return something;

}

private string bFunction(string[] values)

{

int I = 0; string result = "";

for(int J=0; J < 3; J++)

{

if (J != 0)

I = I + 3 + J;

result += values[I] + values[I + 1];

} else

{ result += values[J] + values[J + 1]; I = J; }

return result;

}

QUESTION 1: WHAT IS THE VALUE IN outputLabel.Text after the code has executed?

QUESTION 2: What should have been the output in outputLabel.Text from question 1?

QUESTION 3: What corrections need to be made to the code logic to produce the correct result from question 1?

Explanation / Answer

public class Test {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
string[] letters = { "s", "e", "n", "p", "m", "e", "", "i", "s", "s", "t", "g", "r", "", "", "r", "e" };   //Initializing a letters array.
   string result = aFunction(letters);   //Calls the function aFunction with letters as input parameter.
   //After the above call, result is spring.
   result = bFunction(letters);   //Calls the function bFunction with letters as input parameter.
   //After the above call, result is semest
   outputLabel.Text = result;       //The value in result, i.e., semest will be given to outputLabel.Text.
   }
private string aFunction(string[] values)  
{
string something = "";   //Initializes something with an empty string.
int counter = 0;       //Initializes the counter with 0.
for (int I = 10; I > 3; I--)   //This loop runs for 7 times for values, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4.
{ counter = (I * 5) % 14;       //I * 5 will be divided by 14, and the result will be stored in counter.
//So, counter values will be 8, 3, 12, 7, 2, 11, 6 in that order.
something += values[counter];   //The respective positioned strings in values will be appeneded to something.
//So, something will be: spring, and it will be returned to the called function.
}
return something;
}
private string bFunction(string[] values)
{
int I = 0; string result = "";   //Initializes result with an empty string.
for(int J=0; J < 3; J++)   //This loop runs for 3 times for values, 0, 1, 2.
{  
if (J != 0)                   //If j is not 0, this evaluates to true, for last 2 values, i.e., when j = 1, and 2.
{  
I = I + 3 + J;           //Now, I = 0 + 3 + 1 = 4, I = 4 + 3 + 2 = 9.
result += values[I] + values[I + 1];   //The 2 string at location I, and I + 1 will be appended to result.
//So, when j = 1, "me", and when j = 2, "st"
} else
{ result += values[J] + values[J + 1]; I = J; } //The first string and the second string, i.e., "se" will be appended to result., and I = 0.
return result;   //Finally, the result will be semest will be returned.
}
}
}

QUESTION 1: WHAT IS THE VALUE IN outputLabel.Text after the code has executed? "semest"

QUESTION 2: What should have been the output in outputLabel.Text from question 1? "spring semest"

QUESTION 3: What corrections need to be made to the code logic to produce the correct result from question 1? The line result = bFunction(letters); should be modified to result += bFunction(letters);
