I think only II contains an error.
Tricky because, syntactically, all three are correct I.M.O.
However, if the goal is to iterate as many times as lotNumLength, then statement II loops one time too many. This is known as an off-by-one error.
Answer:
Option 1: May crash at runtime because it can input more elements than the array can hold
Explanation:
Given the code as follows:
- int[] a = {1, 3, 7, 0, 0, 0};
- int size = 3, capacity = 6;
- int value = cin.nextInt();
- while (value > 0)
- {
- a[size] = value;
- size++;
- value = cin.nextInt();
- }
From the code above, we know the <em>a</em> is an array with six elements (Line 1). Since the array has been initialized with six elements, the capacity of the array cannot be altered in later stage.
However, a while loop is created to keep prompting for user input an integer and overwrite the value in the array started from index 3 (Line 4- 9). In every round of loop, the index is incremented by 1 (Line 7). If the user input for variable <em>value</em> is always above zero, the while loop will persist. This may reach a point where the index value is out of bound and crash the program. Please note the maximum index value for the array is supposedly be 5.
