Find the Output: Growth versus decreasing bound

22Find the output of the following C code (assume #include <stdio.h> and that the code is inside int main(void)):
int a = 1, b = 20;
while (a < b) {
    a = a * 2 + 1;
    b -= 3;
}
printf("%d %d", a, b);
  • Option : B
  • Explanation : The pairs become (3,17), (7,14), and (15,11), at which point the condition is false.
