Answer 2

Required Answer:-

Given C∅de Snippet:

int a = 0;

if (a>0) {

cout << "Number is positive";

}

else {

cout << "Number is negative";

}

Language:

• C++

Output:

Number is negative.

Note: 0 is neither negative nor positive but due to some logical errors, the output is - "Number is negative".

Explanation:

• Here, a = 0. So, a > 0 is false as 0 > 0 is false. So, if block will not execute. The else block will execute.
• So, the output is - Number is negative.
