22. Analyze the following code:

if (x < 100) && (x > 10)

System.out.println("x is between 10 and 100");

A. The statement has compile errors because (x<100) & (x > 10) must be enclosed inside parentheses.

B. The statement has compile errors because (x<100) & (x > 10) must be enclosed inside parentheses and the println(?) statement must be put inside a block.

}

A. y is 0.

B. y is 1 because x is assigned to y first.

C. y is 2 because x + 1 is assigned to x and then x is assigned to y.
