Hi All,
Can someone explain me the output of the following code?
The answer given in the mock test(wizlabs) is c (x=5 and y=1).
Thanks in advance,
Niara.

Your subject line seems to indicate you're questioning why this is not an infinite loop (which running the code will confirm).
if(++x > y--) might look like an infinite loop, but note that it's inside a "do" loop with a condition of while(x < 5). So as soon as x == 5, execution will leave the "do" body.
