Explanation:

Analyze variable assignments

Using the Variable Assignment knowledge point, we identify the initial values assigned to the variables from the code block:

• score is assigned the value 4.
• lives is assigned the value 3.

Evaluate the outer conditional

Using the Conditional Statements knowledge point, we evaluate the condition of the outer if statement:

• The outer condition is if (lives == 0).
• Since lives is 3, the condition 3 == 0 is false.
• Therefore, the code inside the if block (which displays "You Lose") is skipped, and control moves to the else block.

Evaluate the nested conditional

Using the Nested Conditionals knowledge point, we analyze the code inside the else block:

• Inside the else block, there is another conditional statement:

if (score == 5) AND (lives == 3)

• We evaluate this compound condition:
• score == 5 evaluates to 4 == 5, which is false.
• lives == 3 evaluates to 3 == 3, which is true.
• The logical AND of false and true is false.
• Since the nested if condition is false, the code inside this nested if block (which displays "Perfect Game!") is skipped, and control moves to its corresponding else block.

Determine the final output

We execute the code inside the innermost else block:

• The statement inside this else block is DISPLAY "You Win!".
• Therefore, "You Win!" will be displayed.

Match with the options

We compare our result with the given multiple-choice options:

• Option A: Perfect Game!
• Option B: You Win!
• Option C: You Lose
• Option D: Nothing will be displayed

The correct option is B.

Answer:

• (A) Perfect Game!
• (B) You Win! (Correct answer)
• (C) You Lose
• (D) Nothing will be displayed
