5 / 10Java -operatorsHardJava

Consider `short s = 10; s = s + 5;` and `short t = 10; t += 5;`. Which statement is correct?

  1. Both compile and run fine.

  2. Only `s = s + 5` compiles.

  3. Only `t += 5` compiles.

  4. Both give compilation errors.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer

Only `t += 5` compiles.

Explanation

`s = s + 5` causes a compilation error because `s + 5` is promoted to int, cannot assign int to short without cast. `t += 5` is a compound assignment that includes an implicit cast, so it compiles.
