I thought answer will be 25 the while loop will run 25 times as 31415927 / 2**24 =1.8... which is > 1 so for last time it will go for 2**25 , d will be incremented 24+1=25 then it becomes less than 1 condition becomes false... while loop terminates.. the no. of times x is divided by 2 & remains >1 the d will be incremented by 1
