An algorithm allocates processing threads in two phases. For a positive integer batch size k, Phase 1 receives lfloor dfrack2 rfloor threads, and Phase 2 receives lceil dfrack2 rceil threads. The operational complexity metric is given by f(k) = lfloor dfrack2 rfloor lceil dfrack2 rceil - leftlfloor dfrack^2 - 14 rightrfloor.
For how many integer values of k in the range 1 ≤ k ≤ 100 does f(k) = 1?
- 0
- 25
- 50
- 75
- 100
