Question 43
Easy

A drone flight controller uses an algorithm to determine the number of warning LED flashes based on the battery status reading.

Figure 1 shows the algorithm.

1      status ← READ_SENSOR()
2      IF status = 'optimal' THEN
3          flashes ← 0
4      ELSE IF status = 'warning' THEN
5          flashes ← 3
6      ELSE IF status = 'critical' THEN
7          signal ← 8
8      ELSE
9          OUTPUT 'error'
10     ENDIF
11     FOR j ← 1 TO flashes
12         TRIGGER_ALARM('siren')
13     ENDFOR

The programmer realizes they have made a mistake. State the line number of the algorithm shown in Figure 1 where the error has been made.
