Match compare cost: 1. Equals: p. Bool 2. Cmp: q. Int result 3. C-str: r. Costly

A1-p, 2-q, 3-r
B1-p, 2-r, 3-q
C1-q, 2-p, 3-r
D1-r, 2-p, 3-q
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. 1-p, 2-q, 3-r
Evaluating string equality directly is computationally cheaper than generic three-way comparison, particularly in null-terminated C strings.
