Flow Control

[Maxi Malahleha]

Hi

please explain the out put to this code.

public class FlowControl {
public int control(int x){
int a = 1;
a+= x;
if((x > 4) && (x < 10)){

a+= 2*x;

}else if(x <= 4){
a+= 3 * x;

} else {
a+= 4 * x;
}
a+= 5 * x;

return a;
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
FlowControl o = new FlowCOntrol();
System.out.println("FC(34) is:" + o.control(34));
}
}

output is 341

Why not 171
why not 307
why not 205

I'll give you a hint: x is 34 -and does not change- so which of the "if" tests will succeed?

when you say x+=b*c then it means x = x + (b*c)
