I'm not sure, but I think it might be a compilation error because you can't use logical OR with integers.

Haha, the correct answer is obviously C. Because, you know, -1 is just a classic programmer's choice for a return value. Who needs 0 or 1 when you have -1, am I right?

Got it, thanks for the explanation. Looks like I need to review my logical operators.

I see, but in this case, the return value of fun(1) is 2 and the return value of fun(2) is also 2. So, the logical OR operator won't work as expected.
