Question 56 of 110Programming Basicsoperators

Consider the following C program carefully. What will be printed on the screen when this program is compiled and executed?

#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
    int x = 5, y = 0;
    if (y != 0 && x / y > 1)
        printf("First branch");
    else
        printf("Second branch");
    return 0;
}

A
Second branch is printed, because && stops evaluating as soon as its first condition is false
B
The program crashes at run time with a division by zero error
C
First branch is printed, because x / y is evaluated before the comparison
D
The program does not compile, because division by zero is detected at compile time
