Question
Please help me and please circle the answer!!!
How many times will the innermost loop be iterated when the algorithm segment is implemented and run? Assume n, k, j, and i are positive
integers.
for k := 1 to n
for j := k to n
for i:= j to n
[Statements in the body of the inner loop,
none containing branching statements
that lead outside the loop]
next i
next j
next k
As in Example 9.6.4, sketch a trace table for the algorithm segment and notice that because i goes from j to n, it is always the case that i ? v j.
Similarly, it is always the case that j ? v k and that k ? v 1. Thus, the number of iterations of the innermost loop is the same as the number of
integer triples (i, i, k) that are related to each other in a certain way, and this is the same as the number of strings of ?
?v crosses, where the position of the crosses indicate which ? v integers from 1 to n are included in the triple. Thus, the answer is
