method and leaving the method? - ANSWERSentry/exit
In a control flow graph, the labeled outgoing edges of a node, when there are two or
more outgoing edges are called what? - ANSWERSbranches
"For loops" are a particularly weird construct that exists in many programming
languages. For an accurate representation in a control flow graph, how many nodes
