With a piece of paper, write down your name and answers to the following questions.

Consider the following program?

public final class Program {
	public static void main(final String[] args) {
		System.out.println("mysteriousOne output:");
		mysteriousOne(3);

		System.out.println("mysteriousTwo output:");
		mysteriousTwo(3);

		System.out.println("mysteriousThree output:");
		mysteriousThree(3);
	}

	private static void mysteriousOne(final int n) {
		System.out.println(n);
		if (n > 1)
			mysteriousOne(n - 1);
	}

	private static void mysteriousTwo(final int n) {
		if (n > 1)
			mysteriousTwo(n - 1);
		System.out.println(n);
	}

	private static void mysteriousThree(final int n) {
		System.out.println(n);
		if (n > 1)
			mysteriousThree(n - 1);
		System.out.println(n);
	}
}
