Expert Solution & Answer
Chapter 5, Problem 1MC
Program Description Answer
The println statement in the given program segment displays the value “5”.
Hence, the correct answer is option “A”.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
Increment operator “++”:
The increment operator is used to increment or increase the value of the variable by “1”.
Example:
/*the variable val is increased by 1 with a postfix representation */
val++;
/*the variable val is increased by 1 with a prefix representation */
++val;
In the given program segment, the variable “x” is declared and initialized with the value “5”. In the println statement, post-increment operation is performed using the statement “x++”. As per postfix mode, the value of the variable “x” is printed and then the value is incremented. Therefore, the value of “x”, which is “5” is printed using the println statement and then the value of “x” is incremented.
Explanation for incorrect options:
b. 6:
The value of “x” is incremented to 6 after it is displayed.
Hence, the option “B” is wrong.
c. 0:
The value of “x” is initialized as 5, and then it is not modified as “0”.
Hence, the option “C” is wrong.

I want to ask someone who has experiences in writing physics based simulation software. For context I am building a game engine, and want to implement physics simulation. There are a few approaches that I managed to find, but would like to know what are other approaches to doing physics simulation entry points from scenes, would you be able to visually draw me a few approaches (like 3 approaces)?When I say entry point to the actual physics simulation. An example of this is when the user presses the play button in the editor, it starts and initiates the physics system. Applying all of the global physics settings parameters that gets applied to that scene.Here is the use-case, I am looking for. If you have two scenes, and select scene 1. You press the play button. The physics simulation starts. When that physics simulation starts, you are also having to update the physics through some physics dedicated delta time because physics needs to happen faster update frequency.To elaborate, what…
