Given an array of integers of length 7 called INTEGERS, the following pseudocode has been written to output the two biggest integers it contains. The algorithm should handle both negative and positive values as well as repeated values.
biggestNumber = INTEGERS[0]
secondBiggestNumber = INTEGERS[1]
if biggestNumber < secondBiggestNumber
biggestNumber = INTEGERS[1]
secondBiggestNumber = INTEGERS[0]
end if
loop x from 2 to 6
num = INTEGERS[x]
if num > biggestNumber
INSERT_CODE_HERE
biggestNumber = num
else if num > secondBiggestNumber
secondBiggestNumber = num
end if
end loop
Choose the pseudocode snippet below to replace "INSERT_CODE_HERE" in order to have the above procedure function correctly.
(a).
secondBiggestNumber = biggestNumber
(b).
secondBiggestNumber = INTEGERS[x+1]
(c).
secondBiggestNumber = INTEGERS[x]
(d).
x = x + 1
