A computer program contains code in several places that asks a user to enter an integer within a specified range of values. The code repeats the input request if the value that the user enters is not within the specified range. A programmer would like to create a procedure that will generalize this functionality and can be used throughout the program. The correct use of the procedure is shown below, where min is the least acceptable value, max is the greatest acceptable value, and promptString is the string that should be printed to prompt the user enter a value. inputVal ←← getRange(min, max, promptString) Which of the following is a correct implementation of the getRange procedure?

PROCEDURE getRange(min, max, promptString) { DISPLAY(promptString) x ←← INPUT() REPEAT UNTIL(x ≥ min AND x ≤ max) { DISPLAY(promptString) x ←← INPUT() } RETURN(x) }

A code segment is intended to transform the list utensils so that the last element of the list is moved to the beginning of the list.
