int x = 10;
int y = 20;
}
{
}
What will be the value of the parameter "a", in the method paintPicture when this code is executed?
(a) 10
(b) 0
(c) This will not compile. This is an error because the parameter "a" was never declared and never
given a value.
(d) 20
Feedback:
The first argument of the call is the graphics object, "g" This value is transferred to the first formal
argument (parameter) which is also called "g". The value of the second argument (parameter) in the
call, "x" is transferred to the second formal argument (parameter), "a" so the formal argument
(parameter), "a" will have a value of 10. The names do not have to be the same - just the types. The
same is true for the third argument (parameter) in the call, "y". It s value is transferred to the third
formal argument, "b" which will have a value of 20.
