Test Your Java Knowledge: Using Operators and Making Assignments, Part 5
Questions
Welcome
I recommend that you also make use of my online Java tutorial lessons, which are designed from a more conventional textbook approach. Those tutorial lessons are published at Gamelan.com.
Insofar as possible, I will make use of Sun Java in these lessons. However, it will not be possible for me to go back and do a full update each time Sun releases a new version, so over the course of time, I expect to use different versions of Sun Java.
Just in case you would like to sneak a peek, the answers to the questions, and the explanations of those answers are located (in reverse order) at the end of this file.
The questions and the answers are connected by hyperlinks to make it easy for you to navigate from the question to the answer and back. It is recommended that you make your first pass through the questions in the order that they appear so as to avoid inadvertently seeing the answer to a question before you provide your own answer.
