Every complete statement ends with a __________.
- a. period
- b. parenthesis
- c. semicolon
- d. ending brace
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.

- The temperature of an object changes when it absorbs or loses thermal energy. It is possible to relate the amount of heat transferred, denoted by a variable q with units of joules, to the quantity of the substance m, by the following equation: q = mCsΔt Write a script that calculates amount of heat transferred for any amount of aluminum. Aluminum has a specific heat Cs = 0.897. The program should prompt the user to enter values for Δt and m, and should return the amount of heat transferred in units of joules.

- Fahrenheit to Celsius using multiple statements Given a Fahrenheit value temperatureFahrenheit, write a statement that assigns temperatureCelsius with the equivalent Celsius value. While the equation is C = 5/9 * (F - 32), as an exercise use two statements, the first of which is "fractionalMultiplier = 5/9:".

Write a program called Population that accepts two values from a user: an assumption of an annual increase in the population of Mexico and an assumption for an annual decrease in the U.S. population. Accept both figures as percentages; in other words, a 1.5 percent decrease is entered as 0.015. Write an application that displays the populations of the two countries every year until the population of Mexico exceeds that of the United States, and display the number of years it took. An example of the program is shown below: Enter the percent annual increase for Mexico population Enter as a decimal. For example, 0.5% is entered as 0.005 Enter the value >> 0.008 Enter the percent annual decrease for U.S. population Enter as a decimal.
