Exhibit
Refer to the exhibit.
```java
public class SwitchTest {
public static void main(String[] args) {
int value = 2;
switch (value) {
case 1:
System.out.print("One ");
case 2:
System.out.print("Two ");
case 3:
System.out.print("Three ");
break;
default:
System.out.print("Default ");
}
}
}
```What is the output when this code is executed?
```java
int x = 2;
switch (x) { case 1: System.out.print("One "); case 2: System.out.print("Two "); case 3: System.out.print("Three "); break; default: System.out.print("Default");
}
```
⚠ Common exam trap
The trap here is that candidates often forget that missing break statements cause fall-through, leading them to think only the matched case executes, or they incorrectly assume the default case always runs at the end.
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Two Three
The switch statement matches the value 2, so it executes the case 'Two' block, which prints 'Two ' and then falls through to the next case because there is no break statement. The case 'Three' block prints 'Three ' and then breaks, exiting the switch. The default case is skipped because a matching case was found and the break in case 'Three' prevents further fall-through. Thus, the output is 'Two Three '.
