while (num % divisor != 0) { | creates looping "while" with condition while variable num modulus by the value of divisor is not null then execute the below code | Therefore, we need to use a loop structure. | 4 |
while (num % divisor != 0) { | creates looping "while" with condition while variable num modulus by the value of divisor is not null then execute the below code | The condition in the while loop tests whether the body of the loop should be repeated, so it should test whether the divisor is not a factor of the number. | 2 |

if ( num > 0 ) { | begins an if-else condition, with num being larger than 0 as the first option | The conditions that tests for the integer's sign are mutually exclusive (i.e., one and only one of the conditions can be true); therefore, their order does not matter. | 2 |
if ( num > 0 ) { | begins an if-else condition, with num being larger than 0 as the first option | To determine the sign of the integer, we need to perform two tests: one for determining whether the integer is positive and one for determining whether the integer is negative. | 3 |
if ( num > 0 ) { | begins an if-else condition, with num being larger than 0 as the first option | Also, it is better to use if-else if statements instead of sequential if statements because an integer has only one sign and once we find the sign, we don't need to perform more tests. | 2 |
if ( num > 0 ) { | begins an if-else condition, with num being larger than 0 as the first option | If both of these tests fail, then we could conclude that the integer is zero. | 1 |

System.out.println(num % 10); | number output | Then, this statement prints the last digit of the integer to the standard output stream. | 3 |
