Understand the Problem

The question is asking under what circumstances the given method 'compareSubs' will return the exact value of its parameter 's'. The method compares substrings of 's' and returns a modified value based on the comparison results.

Answer

Characters are in ascending sequence.

The compareSubs method will return the exact value of the parameter s when the characters in s are all in ascending sequence from the first position to the last position.

Answer for screen readers

The compareSubs method will return the exact value of the parameter s when the characters in s are all in ascending sequence from the first position to the last position.

More Information

The method iterates through the string from the end, and compares adjacent characters. If no descending pair is found, the original string is returned.

Tips

A common mistake is not understanding that compareTo checks if one character is greater than another.
