Question
Consider the following Hoare triple, where we write {{P}} S {{Q}} for the Hoare triple for program S with precondition P, postcondition Q
{{x = 0 Az 20 }}
y: = 0
while (x <z) {
X: = x + 1;
y: = y+X
{{ 2y = z* (z + 1) }}
We want to prove the partial correctness of this program, using the partial-while rule. Which formula below can we use as the invariant I?
2y = x* (x + 1)
2у %3D x*(x + 1) л х<z
2y = z* (z + 1) AX<Z
2y %3D x* (x + 1) л х%3DZ
