In a competition, four different functions are observed. All the functions use a single for loop and within the for loop, same set of statements are executed. Consider the following for loops:
A) for(i = 0; i < n; i++)
B) for(i = 0; i < n; i += 2)
C) for(i = 1; i < n; i *= 2)
D) for(i = n; i <= n; i /= 2)
If n is the size of input(positive), which function is most efficient(if the task to be performed is not an issue)?
A
B
C
D
