Answer 2

System.out.print (); is a statement the prints output.
inside the () you pass the arguments you want to be output ed to a screen. you had the string literal "Special Customer <Yy/Nn>:?" passed into the argument.
there for output to screen is:
Special Customer <Yy/Nn>:?

Answer 3

its just a way to explain to the user what answer is expected.. With --- System.out.println() --- you show a message and the idea is that the user write -- y or Y -- if is talking about a special customer on -- n or N -- in other case... for example in a supermarket or some place like that... sorry for the english, gretings from Argentine

Answer 4

The term in your text book
System.out.println("Special Customer <Yy/Nn>:?");

Actually means that the user has to input either a Capital letter or a Small letter of Y or N.

Any of the input runs through a switch or if/else statement to determine the actual context or reply it is going to display next.

if non of d required character "char type" is keyed into d program, it prints a default statement or else statment.

Answer 5

System is a class and println is a method of another class named input stream, and .out is an instance of class input stream stored as a data member of class System.

Answer 6

It prints out: Special Customer <Yy/Nn>:?

Anything within the double quotes will be printed to the console.

System.out.println("Hello"); //This will print 'Hello' to the console.

Go to an IDE and test it out for yourself.

Answer 7

^^ System.out.println(""); is a method created in Java that prints whatever is in the quotes, if you want to print a value thats stored in a variable:

int x = 15;

System.out.println("X is: " + x);
