For a statement \(S\) in a program, in the context of liveness analysis, the following sets are defined:
\(USE(S)\) : the set of variables used in \(S\)
\(IN(S)\): the set of variables that are live at the entry of \(S\)
\(OUT(S)\) : the set of variables that are live at the exit of \(S\)
Consider a basic block that consists of two statements, \(S_1\) followed by \(S_2\). Which one of the following statements is correct?
- A.
\(\text{OUT($S_1$)} = \text{IN ($S_2$)}\) - B.
\(\text{OUT ($S_1$)} = \text{IN ($S_1$)} \cup \text{ USE ($S_1$)}\) - C.
\(\text{OUT ($S_1$)} = \text{IN ($S_2$) }\cup \text{ OUT ($S_2$)}\) - D.
\(\text{OUT ($S_1$)} = \text{USE ($S_1$)} \cup \text{IN ($S_2$)}\)
