Consider this C function: int f(int n) { int s = 0; for (int i = 1; i <= n; i += 2) { for (int j = i; j 0; j /= 2) { s += j % 3; } } return s; } The function is compiled with a standard C compiler where int is 32-bit and division of positive integers truncates toward zero. A candidate traces f(6) by hand and gets 5, but a teammate gets 7.
