Question 59

An automated parcel sorting system uses the following algorithm to categorize packages based on their weight:

1      weight ← USERINPUT
2      IF NOT(weight >= 15) AND weight MOD 4 = 2 THEN
3          OUTPUT "Category Alpha"
4      ELSEIF weight * 2 > 35 OR weight MOD 5 = 0 THEN
5          OUTPUT "Category Beta"
6      ELSEIF weight >= 12 AND NOT(weight MOD 3 = 0) THEN
7          OUTPUT "Category Gamma"
8      ELSE
9          OUTPUT "Category Delta"
10     ENDIF

What is the output of the algorithm when the user input is 13?

A

"Category Alpha"

B

"Category Beta"

C

"Category Gamma"

D

"Category Delta"
