Assume the integer variable num has been assigned a valid value. What is the purpose of the following code segment?

if (num % 4 >0)

System. out. print (num);

1.) It prints num if it's value is a multiple of 4

2.) It prints num if it's value is not a multiple of 4

3.) It always prints the value of num

4.) It never prints the value of num

5.) An error occurs at compile time

Explanation:

The num%4 operation returns the remainder, so only if num is not a multiple of 4, this value will be non-zero (it will be 1, 2 or 3).
