1.1 Consider the C++ code segment below. What value will newvalhave after this code has been
executed? (2)

int var1 = 4;
int var2 = 10;
int newval = 0;
if (var1 * 2 >= var2)
newval = 5 + 2 * var2;
else if (var1 < var2)
newval = var2 - var1 * 2;
else
newval = var1;

1.2 Suppose the input value for a is 5. What is the value of a after the following C++ code has
been executed? (2)

int a;
cin >> a;
switch (a)
{
case 1: a += 3;
case 3: a = a * 3; break;
case 5: a = ++a + 10;
case 6: a /= 2;
default: a = a + 1;
}

1.3 Consider the following C++ code segment: (2)

int findValue(int numberP)
{
int count = 0;
int value = 20;
while (count < numberP)
{
value += count;
count ++;
