Question

If you want to output the text "hi there", including the quote marks, which of the following could do that?

A) .printIn ("hi there");
B) system.outprintIn (""hi there"");
C) system.outprintIn ("\"hi there");
D) system.outprintIn ("\"hi there\"");

Answer 1

The correct option to output the text "hi there", including the quote marks, is D) system.out.print("\"hi there\""). This option properly uses escape characters to include the double quotes in the output.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you want to output the text "hi there", including the quote marks, the correct syntax in Java would be to make use of escape characters to avoid confusion with the string quotation marks. In Java, the backslash (\) character is an escape character, used to insert a special character in a string. For instance, to embed double quotes within a string, you use \" to represent the double quote character.

Therefore, looking at the provided options:

Note that option D also corrects the typo from 'outprintIn' to out.print, and it assumes the correct method name is 'print' or 'println,' not 'printIn' as is mistyped in the options.
