The question as written contains several issues, so I'll analyze what the intended code intends to do and what it would yield if correctly written.

First, the snippet appears to mix languages and has a few syntax problems. A plausible corrected version would be:
string strURL = "http://www.nyp.edu.sg";
var str = strURL.Substring(strURL.IndexOf('.', 4));
This uses the URL string and then takes a substring starting at the position of the first dot found when searching from index 4 onward.

Now, examine IndexOf('.', 4): this searches for the character '.' starting at index 4 of strURL. In "http://www.nyp.edu.sg", the characters are laid out as follows roughly: the first dot appears after the "http://www" portion, specifically at the position just after "www". The actual index is 10 (0-based indexing: h=0, t=1, t=2, p=3, :=4, /=5, /=6, w=7, w=8, w=9, .=10, etc.). Therefore, strURL.IndexOf('.', 4) would return 10.

Next, Substring(10) would return the portion of the string starting from index 10 to the end. The character at index 10 is '.', so the result would be ".nyp.edu.sg" (i.e., the dot plus the remainder of the string).

Consequently, the value assigned to str would be ".nyp.edu.sg" under this corrected interpretation.

Given the provided answer option ".www.nyp.edu.sg": this is not the correct outcome for the described logic. The string portion starting at the dot located after "www" would not include the preceding "www" segment, and starting at index 10 would yield a substring beginning with the dot immediately before "nyp". Therefore, ".www.nyp.edu.sg" would be incorrect for this code.

Additionally, the original question text contains typos and missing punctuation that would prevent compilation as-is (for example, "What is the results stored in variable str?string strURL = ...;var str = str.Substring(IndexOf('.',4);" is not valid C# syntax). If those were fixed, the intended behavior described above would apply.

In summary: if the code is corrected to use strURL.Substring(strURL.IndexOf('.', 4)), the resulting value assigned to str should be ".nyp.edu.sg". The provided answer ".www.nyp.edu.sg" does not match this outcome and reflects a misunderstanding of how Substring and IndexOf operate in this context.
