Question: method BadNbr ( a: array ) returns ( bn: int ) requires a ! = null ensures ( a . Length 2 = = >

method BadNbr(a: array) returns (bn: int)
requires a != null
ensures (a.Length 2==> bn ==-1)// If the array is too small, return -1
&& (bn >=0==> bn a.Length)// If a bad neighbour exists, bn is a valid index
&& (bn ==-1==> forall i :: 0= i a.Length ==>
(a[i]+ a[(i +1)% a.Length]>=0)); // No bad neighbours
{
// Base case: if the array length is less than 2, no bad neighbours possible.
if a.Length 2{
return -1; // No bad neighbours in arrays with fewer than 2 elements.
}
var n := a.Length;
// Check the wrap-around pair (last and first elements)
if a[n -1]+ a[0]0{
return 0; // The right neighbour of the first element (index 0) is bad
}
// Check for bad neighbours in consecutive pairs
var i :=0;
while i n -1
invariant 0= i = n -1
invariant forall j :: 0= j i ==> a[j]+ a[j +1]>=0
{
if a[i]+ a[i +1]0{
return i +1; // The right neighbour of the current element (index i) is bad
}
i := i +1;
}
return -1; // No bad neighbours found
}
method TestBadNbr()
{
// Test case 1: Empty array
var arr1 := new int[0];
var res1 := BadNbr(arr1);
assert res1==-1; // No bad neighbours, so return -1
// Test case 2: Array with one element
var arr2 := new int[1];
arr2[0] :=5;
var res2 := BadNbr(arr2);
assert res2==-1; // No bad neighbours, so return -1
// Test case 3: Array with two elements where sum is negative
var arr3 := new int[2];
arr3[0] :=1;
arr3[1] :=-2;
var res3 := BadNbr(arr3);
assert res3==1; // Right neighbour (index 1) is bad
// Test case 4: Array with three elements and a bad neighbour pair
var arr4 := new int[3];
arr4[0] :=3;
arr4[1] :=-4;
arr4[2] :=1;
var res4 := BadNbr(arr4);
assert res4==1; // Right neighbour (index 1) is bad
// Test case 5: Array with four elements and a wrap-around bad neighbour pair
var arr5 := new int[4];
arr5[0] :=2;
arr5[1] :=-1;
arr5[2] :=3;
arr5[3] :=-4;
var res5 := BadNbr(arr5);
assert res5==3; // Right neighbour (index 3) is bad (wrap-around pair)
}
I changed my code to use the wrap around method but I still getting errors that the assertion will not hold
