Chapter 2, Problem 1MC
Every complete statement ends with a __________.
- a. period
- b. parenthesis
- c. semicolon
- d. ending brace
Expert Solution & Answer
Program Description Answer
The complete statement ends with “semicolon (“;”)”.
Hence, the correct answer is option “C”.
Explanation of Solution
Semicolon (;):
Semicolon is a type of command in Java.
- The semicolon is used to indicate to the compiler that the command ends here.
- Semicolon is used as delimiter in Java to intentionally separate a command from the following Java command.
- If a semicolon is missed in any of the statements, then the program produces an error.
Example for the purpose of Semicolon (;):
//Declare and initialize the variables
double value1 = 28;
double value2 = 32;
double value3 = 37;
The above three variable declaration statements are all individual commands separated by the semicolon.
Explanation for incorrect options:
a. Period:
Period is used differentiate an integer value and decimal value, the value with the period is considered as decimal value.
Hence, the option “A” is wrong.
b. Parentheses:
Parentheses are the symbol used to group the statements in if statement, loop or any other control structures.
Hence, the option “B” is wrong.
d. Ending brace:
Braces are used to represent a block of code, ending brace represents that the block of code ends there.
Hence, the option “D” is wrong.

If the user guesses the number in 3rd try you will assign:Points = (10 – 3)^2/100 = 7 ^ 2 = 49 points.When the user presses the ‘Start Game’ button, the game will start. User will enter a number in the largetextbox and press Submit. If number is correct display the Messagebox, else continue with game. Also tellthe user if the number entered was higher or lower than actual number.The problem flow will be as follows:1. Player enters name and number of chances2. Player presses Start game3. Computer generates a secret random number4. Player enters choice5. Program checks if number matches guesses number. If number matches jump to step #106. Program updates message whether the guessed number is more or less than actual7. Program reduces available chances by 1 and display messages on changes8. If chances become 0 stop game and tell use Game has ended, and she will have to press ‘Start Game’again. Same message should be spoken by the program using text to…
The great circle distance is the distance betweentwo points on the surface of a sphere. Let (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) be the geographicallatitude and longitude of two points. The great circle distance between the twopoints can be computed using the following formula:d = radius X arccos(sin (x1) X sin(x2) + cos(x1) X cos(x2) X cos(y1 - y2))Write a program that prompts the user to enter the latitude and longitude of twopoints on the earth in degrees and displays its great circle distance. The averageradius of the earth is 6,371.01 km. Note you need to convert the degrees into radiansusing the Math.toRadians method since the Java trigonometric methods useradians. The latitude and longitude degrees in the formula are for north and west.Use negative to indicate south and east degrees. Here is a sample run:
Enter point 1 (latitude and longitude) in degrees: 39.55 −116.25 ↵EnterEnter point 2 (latitude and longitude) in degrees: 41.5 87.37 ↵EnterThe distance between the two points is…
