Question
Suppose that the function qux is guaranteed to return an integer between -365 and 350 inclusive. If you wanted to compare the return value of this function against the target value -27 with a structure that would send the flow of control down a different path depending on whether the return value was less than or greater than or equal to the target value then which of the following branching structures would be the best approach? This question is internally recognized as variant 250.
