12. Box Office Program

Answer:
if ( age < 13  )

Box Office Program

import java.util.Scanner;
public class BoxOffice
{
  public static void main (String[] args) 
  {
    Scanner scan = new Scanner( System.in );
    int age;
 
    System.out.println("Enter your age:");
    age = scan.nextInt();

    if ( age < 13  )
    {
      System.out.println("Child rate.");   
    } 
    else
    {
      System.out.println("Adult rate.");   
    }
    System.out.println("Enjoy the show.");    
  }
}

Here is what happens for one run of the program:

1. The program prints "Enter your age".
2. The user enters an age: "21", for example.
3. The string "21" is converted from characters into an int and put into the variable age.
4. The condition age < 13 is tested.
5. 21 < 13 is false.
6. The false branch is executed: the program prints "adult rate".
7. Execution continues with the statement after the false branch: "Enjoy the show" is printed.

Question 12:
What does the program output if the user enters 11?
