Hello will be displayed 10 times.

What does the following loop compute? Scanner in = new Scanner (System.in); int sum = 0; int count = 0; while (in.hasNextInt()) { int value = in.nextInt(); if (value > 0) { sum += value; count++; } } double result = (sum * 1.0)/count;

The average of all the positive integers in the input

Which statement is correct about the execution of the loop in the following code fragment? double num; int incr = 0; Scanner reader = new Scanner(System.in); do { incr = incr + 1; System.out.println("Please enter a number (0 when done): "); num = reader.nextDouble(); } while (num != 0); System.out.println("" + incr);

Which of the following statements is correct about a sentinel?

A sentinel is a value that indicates the end of an input sequence.

An alphabetic character
