Assume that a hypothetical function

string interprete$\_$bmi$($int bmi$\_$val, bool male$\_$or$\_$female, int age$)$

is used to provide information about a person's bmi value according to his gender and his age. During the

function's execution there are three important value intervals for bmi$\_$val parameter that indicates

underweight, normal weight and overweight individuals and three different age intervals to indicate

young, adult and senior individuals.

a$.(5$p$)$ If combinatorial testing approach is applied how many different test cases would have been

identified.

b$.(10$p$)$ Apply pairwise testing and draw a table to identify the test cases that cover the whole

parameter set.
