What is the value of max in the below code snippet?int val1 = 10;int val2 = 20;int max = val1 >= val2 ? val1 : val2;

The value of "max" in the given code snippet is 20.

Here's the step by step explanation:

1. The code first declares two integer variables, val1 and val2, and assigns them the values 10 and 20 respectively.
2. Then it declares a third integer variable, max.
3. The value assigned to max is determined by the ternary operator (?:). This operator takes three operands: a condition, a value if the condition is true, and a value if the condition is false.
4. In this case, the condition is "val1 >= val2". This checks if val1 is greater than or equal to val2.
5. If the condition is true (i.e., if val1 is greater than or equal to val2), then val1 is assigned to max. If the condition is false (i.e., if val1 is less than val2), then val2 is assigned to max.
6. In this case, since val1 (10) is not greater than or equal to val2 (20), the condition is false. Therefore, val2 (20) is assigned to max.
7. So, the value of max is 20.
