A question from Mock Exam

[Jisha Anand]

Dear All,

I encountered the following question while attempting a practice test in http://examprep.whizlabs.com

The following line of code is equivalent to which of the given codes?

if(x > y) 

z = x; 

else 

z = y;

Choose at least one answer:
   
  a. z = x < y ? x : y    
  b. z = x < y ? y : x    
  c. z = y < x ? x : y    
  d. z = y < x ? y : x    
  e. None of the above    

The answer given was: Choices B and C are the correct answers.

Is this correct?
Of course C is correct; but if B is correct the case when x == y will make z = x; where as in the given code z = y for the same case right?
I thought the question was an easy one; but now confused Please help!

x=1
y=1
taking option b
the end result is still the same
whether z=x or z=y, both the answers will be the same,right?

Hehe...
myself got confused in this one at first...

when x==y, does it matter what it returns??? Because x and y are the same!!!..
