The following code is intended to test if the exponent is 8 or less. int base = 2; int exponent = scan. nextint(); int answer = (int)math. pow(base, exponent); if (answer < = 256) system. out. println("exponent is 8 or less"); what is the problem with the code? nothing is wrong, the code works as intended. the < = should be > the < = should be ==

Nothing is wrong, the code works as intended.

Explanation:

There is nothing wrong with the code.It will work fine.

Working of the code:-

An integer variable named base is declared and initialized with the value 2.Then the exponent variable is taken as input.Then the answer of the  base raised to the exponent is stored in the variable answer using the pow method of the Math package.Then checking with the if statement if the answer is less than or equal to 256 means that the exponent is less than 8 hence printing exponent is 8 or less.
