public class Main//defining a class

{

public static void main(String[] arg)//defining main method

{

  String[] words={"Key","day", "Know", "kind"};//defining array of String words

  int x=0;//defining integer variable for count value

  for(int i=0;i<words.length;i++)//defining for loop for count value

  {

 if(words[i].startsWith("k")||words[i].startsWith("K"))//use if block to check word start from k

  x=x+1;//increment the value of x

  }

System.out.print("The number of letters which starts from k is: "+ x);//print value with message

}

}

Output:

The number of letters which starts from k is: 3

In this code, inside the main method an array of String "words" is defined that hold a value, and in the next step an integer variable "x" is defined, which is used to count the letters, which starts from k.

What is stored in alpha after the following code executes?
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

3. alpha = {1, 5, 6, 7, 5}

Explanation:

Initially, we have that:

alpha[0] = 1;

alpha[1] = 2;

alpha[2] = 3;

alpha[3] = 4;

alpha[4] = 5;

For j higher than 2, we have that:

alpha[j - 1] = alpha[j] + 2;

So

j = 3

a[2] = alpha[3]+2 = 4 + 2 = 6;

j = 4

a[3] = alpha[4]+2 = 5+2 = 7;

The correct answer is:

3. alpha = {1, 5, 6, 7, 5}
