At an Electronic Data processing unit, five out of the eight program sets P,Q,R,S,T,U,V and W are to be operated daily. On any one day, except for the first day of a month, only three of the program sets must be the ones that were operated on the previous day. The program operating must also satisfy the following conditions: 1. If program P is to be operated on a day, V can’t be operated on that day. 2. If Q is to be operated on a day, T must be one of the programs to be operated after Q. 3. If R is to be operated on a day, V must be one of the programs to be operated after R. 4. The last program to be operated on any day must be either S or U. If the program sets R and W are to be operated on the first day, which of the following could be the other program on that day?
