Question

Consider the following class definition:

public class MyClass
{
private int value;
public void setValue(int i){ /* code */ }
// Other methods...
}

The method setValue assigns the value of i to the instance field value. What could you write for the implementation of setValue?
(a) value = i;
(b) = i;
(c) value == i;
(d) Both (A) and (B) and above
(e) (A), (B) and (C) above.

Answer 1

The correct way to implement the setValue method is option (a) 'value = i;', which assigns the parameter i to the instance variable value.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct implementation of the setValue method in the MyClass definition to assign the value of i to the instance field value would be option (a), which is value = i; This line of code sets the instance variable value to the parameter i. Option (b) = i; is incorrect because it does not specify which variable is being assigned. Option (c) value == i; is also incorrect because it is a comparison, not an assignment.
