Que: Choose the correct answer
Vikram wants to write a program which checks whether the inputted number is divisible by any of the first 6 natural

numbers (excluding 1). He writes the following efficient code for it.

int number, n = 2, isdivisible=0
input number
while ( n <=6) // Statement 1
{
if ( remainder (number, n) == 0)
isdivisible = 1
end
n = n+1 // Statement 2
}
if (isdivisible equals 1)
print "It is divisible"
else
print "It is not divisible"
end

Vikram takes the program to Hari. Hari tells Vikram that though the code is correct, it can be made more efficient. Hari

modifies a single statement and makes the code more efficient. Which statement does he modify and how?

Option 1 : Statement 1 is changed to:
while (n <=6 AND isdivisible=0)
Option 2 : Statement 1 is changed to:
while (n <=6 OR isdivisible=0)
Option 3 : Statement 1 is changed to:
while (isdivisible=0)
Option 4 : Statement 2 is changed to:
