What will be the output of the program?

public class Demo71
{
    private static void report()
    {
        String s = "Mississippi";
        int count = 0;
        for (int i = 0; i < s.length(); i++) if (s.charAt(i) == 's') count++;
        System.out.println(count);
    }

    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        report();
    }
}

  • A.The program prints 5
  • B.The program prints 2
  • C.The program prints 4
  • D.The program prints 3

Answer: C

Mississippi contains four lower case s characters, in two adjacent pairs. Counting with charAt compares chars directly, so no string allocation happens. The two i characters and the two p characters are not counted, which is where a quick guess of 2 comes from.
