Consider the following functions for non-zero positive integers, p and q.

\(f(p,q)=\underbrace{p\times p\times p\times\ldots\ldots\ldots\times p}_{q\text{ terms}}=p^q;\quad f(p,1)=p\)

\(g(p,q)=\underbrace{p^{p^{\cdots^{p}}}}_{q\text{ terms}};\quad g(p,1)=p\)

Which one of the following options is correct based on the above?

  1. A.

    f(2,2)=g(2,2)

  2. B.

    f(g(2,2),2)<f(2,g(2,2))

  3. C.

    g(2,1)≠ f(2,1)

  4. D.

    f(3,2)>g(3,2)
