do { | This loop will print each digit starting from the last digit, and ending with the first digit of the integer "num" | We need to process the digits of the integer from right to left and print them. | 4 |
do { | This loop will print each digit starting from the last digit, and ending with the first digit of the integer "num" | Therefore, we need to use a loop structure. | 3 |
do { | This loop will print each digit starting from the last digit, and ending with the first digit of the integer "num" | In this program, we do this by using a do loop. | 2 |
do { | This loop will print each digit starting from the last digit, and ending with the first digit of the integer "num" | The do loop is more appropriate than a while loop because a positive integer always has at least one digit which results in the body of the loop performing at least once. | 1 |
System.out.println(num % 10); | This line performs a modulus calculation that gets the last digit from the integer "num" and prints that digit. | Each printed digit is followed by the line separator (e.g. '\n') at the end. | 1 |
System.out.println(num % 10); | This line performs a modulus calculation that gets the last digit from the integer "num" and prints that digit. | We need to extract the last digit in the 1's position of the integer. | 4 |
System.out.println(num % 10); | This line performs a modulus calculation that gets the last digit from the integer "num" and prints that digit. | For example, if the integer is 1234, we want to extract the digit 4 that is in 1's position of the integer. | 2 |
System.out.println(num % 10); | This line performs a modulus calculation that gets the last digit from the integer "num" and prints that digit. | We do this by calculating the remainder of the division of the integer by 10. | 3 |
System.out.println(num % 10); | This line performs a modulus calculation that gets the last digit from the integer "num" and prints that digit. | Then, this statement prints the last digit of the integer to the standard output stream. | 4 |
num = num / 10; | This divides the integer "num" by 10 so that the next time through the loop it gets the next digit in "num" | Therefore, this division will remove the digit that we processed (lastDigit) and we can move on to the next digit. | 4 |
num = num / 10; | This divides the integer "num" by 10 so that the next time through the loop it gets the next digit in "num" | We truncate the extracted digit that we processed from the original integer by dividing the integer by 10. | 3 |
num = num / 10; | This divides the integer "num" by 10 so that the next time through the loop it gets the next digit in "num" | Note that this statement performs an integer division because both operand of the / operator are integer. | 3 |
} while (num > 0); | This is the second part of the do-while loop. | We need to check for termination conditions to avoid infinite loops. | 1 |
} while (num > 0); | This is the second part of the do-while loop. | The loop should terminate when we run out of digits to process. | 1 |
} while (num > 0); | This is the second part of the do-while loop. | We could check whether the are more digits left by checking whether the variable num, which gets updated in the body of the do loop, is greater than zero. | 1 |
} while (num > 0); | This is the second part of the do-while loop. | If variable num is greater than zero, then it must have at least one digit, and in that case, the body of the do loop will be repeated again. | 1 |
} while (num > 0); | This is the second part of the do-while loop. | The body of the while loop should repeat as long as there are more digits left that we have not processed yet. | 1 |

} while (num > 0); | It makes sure this loop continues to loop through while the integer "num" is greater than 0. | We could check whether the are more digits left by checking whether the variable num, which gets updated in the body of the do loop, is greater than zero. | 3 |
} while (num > 0); | It makes sure this loop continues to loop through while the integer "num" is greater than 0. | If variable num is greater than zero, then it must have at least one digit, and in that case, the body of the do loop will be repeated again. | 4 |
} while (num > 0); | It makes sure this loop continues to loop through while the integer "num" is greater than 0. | The body of the while loop should repeat as long as there are more digits left that we have not processed yet. | 3 |

int maxValue = values[0]; | Sets the maxValue int to the first value in the array | We initialize this variable by the first value in the array because we initially assume that the first value is the maximum. | 4 |
for (int i = 1; i < values.length; i++) { | Starts a for loop that loops through each of the values in the values array starting from the second variable in the array. | We use a for loop to iterate over the remaining array indexes and search for the maximum value. | 3 |

int minutes = seconds / 60; | Sets the int minutes to seconds divided by 60 | To obtain the minutes in seconds, we divide the seconds by 60 because there are 60 seconds in a minute. | 4 |
int minutes = seconds / 60; | Sets the int minutes to seconds divided by 60 | Note that since both operands of division operator are integer, the fractional part of the result is truncated, if there is any. | 1 |
