Question
(a)
Consider the following algorithm segment:
for i:= 1 to 8
    for j:= 1 to i
        [Statements in the body of the inner loop.
        None contain branching statements
        that lead outside the loop.]
    next j
next i
How many times will the inner loop be iterated when the algorithm is implemented and run?
 
(b)
Let n be a positive integer, and consider the following algorithm segment:
for i:= 1 to n
    for j:= 1 to i
        [Statements in the body of the inner loop.
        None contain branching statements
        that lead outside the loop.]
    next j
next i
How many times will the inner loop be iterated when the algorithm is implemented and run?
