In the following code segment, assume that the ArrayList numList has been properly declared and initialized to contain the Integer values [1, 2, 2, 3]. The code segment is intended to insert the Integer value val in numList so that numList will remain in ascending order. The code segment does not work as intended in all cases. int index = 0;
while (val > numList. get(index))
{
index++;
}
numList. add(index, val);

For which of the following values of val will the code segment not work as intended?

a. 0
b. 1
c. 2
d. 3
e. 4

e. 4

Explanation:

The code segment will not work as intended if the value of the variable val is 4. This is because the while loop is comparing the value of the variable val to the value of each element within the numList. Since there is no element that is bigger than or equal to the number 4, this means that if the variable val is given the value of 4 it will become an infinite loop. This would cause the program to crash and not work as intended.

there is no universally accepted definition of art. although commonly used to describe something of beauty, or a skill which produces an aesthetic result, there is no clear line in principle between (say) a unique piece of handmade sculpture, and a mass-produced but visually attractive item. we might say that art requires thought - some kind of creative impulse - but this raises more questions: for example, how much thought is required? if someone flings paint at a canvas, hoping by this action to create a work of art, does the result automatically constitute art?
