Today’s unearthly puzzle finds its roots in code written by a Jalvanian master. The question in today’s puzzle should be self explanatory.
package com.twister;
public class NoIf {
public static void main(String[] args) {
if(true){}
System.out.println("Print This");
if(true){}
System.out.println("Print This - Not!");
if(true){}
System.out.println("Print This");
}
}
It’s kind of pretty obvious what needs to be done – the code says it all.
You must of course follow the Three Jalvanian Laws.
1. You may only add but not delete nor comment out any of the code.
2. A real Jalvanian would never use an else so neither must you.
3. You may not use any more boolean variables (there are three in the code – which must remain unaltered) or conditions that evaluate to a boolean value. (So no true==false – since false is a boolean value etc).
That’s all folks!!
Got an answer? Do leave it here.
