What is printed by the following code snippet? String s = new String("Bicycle"); int iBegin = 1; int iEnd = 3; System.out.println(s.substring(iBegin, iEnd));

The key idea is how the two-argument substring works. In Java, s.substring(begin, end) returns characters from index begin up to, but not including, index end (end is exclusive).

For "Bicycle", the characters by index are: 0:B, 1:i, 2:c, 3:y, 4:c, 5:l, 6:e. With begin = 1 and end = 3, you take characters at indices 1 and 2, which are 'i' and 'c'. Since the end index is exclusive, the character at index 3 ('y') is not included. So the printed result is ic.
