    Either you haven't written down the Q1 correctly, or the question itself is a trick question where NONE of the answers is right.

    false, !true, false && true, true && false, false || false, etc.

    Sorry, but there are ENDLESS combinations of boolean logic that end with false.

    The problem in the question posted is that either side of an || statement always have a true result, which means the end result will ALWAYS be true.

    Code:
    true && true || false
    false || true
    (false || true) && true
    (false || true) || true

    No programming language is perfect. There is not even a single best language; there are only languages well suited or perhaps poorly suited for particular purposes.

    1.None. These are logical operators and return either true(1) or false(0) as their result. If both the operands of && are true then only && will return true, in all other case it will return false. For || if any one of the operators is true then the result will be true. For && if the first expression evaluates to false the second is not evaluated. For || if the first expression evaluates to true the second is not evaluated. The precedence of && is higher than ||.
    2. do while is the only post test loop. This means that the body of the loop will be executed at least once.
