To answer this question, let's go through each option to understand why it is correct or incorrect:
Option A) 32 - This option is incorrect because the code snippet does not involve any operations that would produce the value 32.
Option B) Infinite Loop - This option is correct. In the given code snippet, the while loop condition is -1 << i != 0
, which shifts the bits of -1 to the left by i
positions. As long as the shifted value is not 0, the loop will continue executing. However, since the left shift operation will never result in 0 for any value of i
, the loop will continue indefinitely, causing an infinite loop.
Option C) 16 - This option is incorrect because the code snippet does not involve any operations that would produce the value 16.
Option D) 64 - This option is incorrect because the code snippet does not involve any operations that would produce the value 64.
The correct answer is B. The code will result in an infinite loop.
