ASSIGNMENTS 1. Given an integer variable drivingAge that has already been declared, write a statement that assigns the value 17 to drivingAge . 2. Write a statement to set the value of num to 4 (num is a variable that has already been declared). 3. Given two integer variables num and highest, write a statement that gives highest the same value that num has. 4. Given two integer variables oldRecord and newRecord , write a statement that gives newRecord the same value that oldRecord has. 5.
