What will be the result if precision is applied to an integer format conversion?

Rounds to specified decimal places
Truncates to the specified length
Causes a runtime exception
Determines minimum field width

The correct answer is: Causes a runtime exception

When precision is applied to an integer format conversion, it will cause a runtime exception because precision can only be applied to floating-point numbers, not integers. Options A, B, and D are all incorrect because they all describe the result of applying precision to a floating-point number, not an integer. Option A, rounding to specified decimal places, is only applicable to floating-point numbers. Option B, truncating to the specified length, is not applicable to integers because they do not have a decimal component. Option D, determining minimum field width, only applies to formatting with padding, which is not relevant to precision.
