Problem: Simulation
You are to simulate the execution of a method that manipulates an array of integers. Consider the following method: public static int mystery(int[] list) { int x = 0; for (int i = 0; i < list.length - 1; i++) if (list[i] > list[i + 1]) x++; return x; } Notice that this method takes an integer array as a parameter and returns an integer. In the left-hand column below are specific lists of integers. You are to indicate in the right-hand column what value would be returned by method mystery if the integer list in the left-hand column is passed as a parameter to mystery. List Value returned -------------------------------------- (8) ______________ (14, 7) ______________ (7, 1, 3, 2, 0, 4) ______________ (10, 8, 9, 5, 6) ______________ (8, 10, 8, 6, 4, 2) ______________
