What will be output of following program? public class Test{public static void main(String[] args){byte b=127; b++; b++; System.out.println(b); } } ?

Correct answer: B. -127

  • A. 127
  • B. -127
  • C. 129
  • D. -129

Explanation

A byte can hold values from -128 to 127, so incrementing 127 wraps to -128 and the second increment produces -127. Java byte arithmetic therefore gives -127 rather than 129.
