EX 5.2 What is wrong with the following code fragment? Rewrite it so

that it produces correct output.

if (total == MAX)
if (total < sum)
System.out.println ("total == MAX and < sum.");
else
System.out.println ("total is not equal to MAX");

EX 5.3 What is wrong with the following code fragment? Will this code

compile if it is part of an otherwise valid program? Explain.

if (length = MIN_LENGTH)
System.out.println ("The length is minimal.");

EX 5.4 What output is produced by the following code fragment?

int num = 87, max = 25;
if (num >= max*2)
System.out.println ("apple");
System.out.println ("orange");
System.out.println ("pear");

EX 5.5 What output is produced by the following code fragment?

int limit = 100, num1 = 15, num2 = 40;
if (limit <= limit)
{
if (num1 == num2)
System.out.println ("lemon");
System.out.println ("lime");
}
System.out.println ("grape");

EX 5.6 Put the following list of strings in lexicographic order as if deter-

mined by the compareTo method of the String class. Consult the
