Output of the following expression

We have 137/42 == 0 && 137/0 == 42

I have to find the output of the following code in Java.

So 137/42 is 3 and now I have 3 ==0 && 137/0 ==42

First of all what does 3==0 result in ? Also since diving by zero results in an error how come we have 137/0==42?

and I know && means AND but what does that result in?

Since 3 == 0 is false and the boolean AND (&&) operator is short circuited, the right operand (137/0 ==42) won't be evaluated when the first operand is false, so the exception won't be thrown and the entire expression will be evaluated to false.
