Problem: Array Simulation
You are to simulate the execution of a method that manipulates an array of integers. Consider the following method: public static void mystery(int[] list) { for (int i = 2; i < list.length; i++) { list[i] = list[i] - list[i - 1]; } } In the left-hand column below are specific lists of integers. You are to indicate in the right-hand column what values would be stored in the list after method mystery executes if the integer list in the left-hand column is passed as a parameter to mystery. Original List Final List ------------------------------------------------------------ {8, 4} ____________________________ {20, 30, 40} ____________________________ {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} ____________________________ {5, 5, 5, 5} ____________________________ {10, 20, 30, 40, 50} ____________________________
1) {8, 4}
2) {20, 30, 40}
3) {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
4) {5, 5, 5, 5}
5) {10, 20, 30, 40, 50}
