Answer 1

Hi!

The correct answer is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The if statement will compare 13<12. This will return false.

In addition, you have an else clause, so:

If comparison is true then run the code in the if statement.

If comparison is false then run the code in the else statement

Step by step.

First, the code will compare 13<12 -> false;

Second: if(false) -> run the else statement.

Third: printf("always\\");
