Chapter 5, Problem 10PS

Explanation of Solution

Given: Dangling else problem.

To find: The statement which creates the dangling else problem.

Solution:

Without a default, the switch statement does not cause the dangling else problem. The problem will not arise even in case the nested if statements are properly written.

In some of the compound statement, if the condition does not consider the else statement due to braces, these braces can easily enclose the condition and choose the satisfied condition in the nested statement. Thus, the problem mainly arises due to nested if statements, but if they have proper else statement, then this problem will not appear.

Hence, the correct option is (d), that is, an if statement without a true or a false statement...
