Problem 8E

Exercises 6–9 each contain a while loop annotated with a preand a post-condition and also a loop invariant. In each case, use the loop invariant theorem to prove the correctness of the loop with respect to the pre- and post-conditions.

[Pre-condition: sum = A[1] and i = 1]

while ( i m)

1. i := i + 1

2. sum: = sum + A[i ]

end while

[Post-condition: sum = A[1] + A[2]+· · ·+ A[m]] loop invariant: I (n) is “i = n +1 and sum = A[1] + A[2]+· · ·+ A[n + 1].”
