How many elementary operations are used in the following alg
How many elementary operations are used in the following algorithm? The elementary operations are comparison operations (such as > and <) and mathematical operations (such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, etc.).
Step 1 Set a = 1, b = 1 c = 2, and k = 1.
Step 2 while k < n
(a) Replace c with a+b
(b) Replace a with b
(c) Replace b with c
(d) Replace k with k+1
endwhile
Step 3 Print b.
Solution
4 elementary operations are used here.
