I think the answer is A) 0 because it covers all the statements in the code.

Haha, this code looks like it was written by a programmer who just discovered the 'While' loop. But I'd say option C is the way to go.

I'm going with C, 10, 5, 0. It's the most comprehensive test case that checks the program's behavior for different input values.

Hmm, I'm torn between B and C. Both seem to cover all the statements, but C might be a bit more thorough in testing the different scenarios.

D, 10, 11, 0 looks good to me. It covers all the different conditions, including the edge case where the input is greater than the current biggest value.
