Answer

char h = 'Y';
if (h == 'y' || h == 'Y') {
    System.out.println("Hungry");
} else {
    System.out.println("Not Hungry");
}

Reason — The problem lies in the condition of the if statement:

if (h == 'y' || 'Y')

The condition 'Y' is invalid because || expects boolean expressions on both sides. 'Y' alone is a char, not a boolean, causing a compilation error.

The statement can be corrected as:

if (h == 'y' || h == 'Y')

Now both sides of || are boolean expressions.
