Chapter 4.1, Problem 4SCP

Explanation of Solution

Given value of variables:

//define a class

public class Oops4

{

    //define the static function

    public static void main(String args[])

    {

        //declare the required variables

        int a=7, b=42;

        //call the method

        minimum(a,b);

        //condition initialized to check whether a is smallest

        if (smaller=a) {

            //print the statement

            System.out.println( "a is the smallest! " );

        }

    }

    //define the static function

        public static void minimum(int a, int b)

        {

            //condition is initialized to check whether a is less than b

            if (a<b) {
