The function f is defined as follows:int f (int n) {if (n <= 1) return 1;else if (n % 2 == 0) return f(n/2);else return f(3n - 1);}Assuming that arbitrarily large integers can be passed as a parameter to the function, consider the following statements.1. The function f terminates for finitely many different values of n ≥ 1.ii. The function f terminates for infinitely many different values of n ≥ 1.iii. The function f does not terminate for finitely many different values of n ≥ 1.iv. The function f does not terminate for infinitely many different values of n ≥ 1.Which one of the following options is true of the above?(A) (i) and (iii)(B) (i) and (iv)(C) (ii) and (iii)(D) (ii) and (iv) |
