Question 90

Smart Warehouse Package Sorter

A smart warehouse sorting system uses the algorithm shown below to categorize packages by weight and attempt to print shipping labels.

1   weight ← READ_SENSOR()
2   IF weight > 10.0 THEN
3       category ← "Heavy"
4   ELSE IF weight > 2.0 THEN
5       category ← "Medium"
6   ELSE
7       category ← "Light"
8   ENDIF
9   attempts ← 3
10  WHILE attempts > 0
11      success ← PRINT_LABEL(category)
12      IF success = TRUE THEN
13          attempts ← 0
14      ELSE
15          attempts ← attempts - 1
16      ENDIF
17  ENDWHILE

Select the option which shows the line number where iteration is first used in the algorithm.
