Java quiz. Which lines will not cause compilation errors?

Which lines will not cause compilation errors?

Explanation

Values of the integral types byte, short, int, and long can be created from int literals. Values of type long that exceed the range of int can be created from long literals. Integer literals can be expressed by these number systems:

Decimal: Base 10, whose digits consists of the numbers 0 through 9; this is the number system you use every day
Hexadecimal: Base 16, whose digits consist of the numbers 0 through 9 and the letters A through F
Binary: Base 2, whose digits consists of the numbers 0 and 1 (you can create binary literals in Java SE 7 and later) For general-purpose programming, the decimal system is likely to be the only number system you'll ever use.

However, if you need to use another number system, the following example shows the correct syntax. The prefix 0x indicates hexadecimal and 0b indicates binary:

// The number 26, in decimal
int decVal = 26;
//  The number 26, in hexadecimal
int hexVal = 0x1a;
// The number 26, in binary
int binVal = 0b11010;

@Cosmo Since the question relies heavily on the size of char, I think it's CRUCIAL to write at the very start of the explanation that char is 0-> 65536, and then you explain how these numbers work. Also you have a question that also uses numbers like here? Except they're considered a wrong answer there? Look into it pls
