Given below are two statements:
Assertion (A): For n=3, l maybe 0,1 and 2 and m maybe  0; \(\pm\)1 and \(\pm\)2
Reason (R): For each value of n, there are 0 to (n-1) possible values of l; and for each value of l, there are 0 to \(\pm\)l values of m.
 
1. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is True but (R) is false.
4. (A) is False but (R) is True.
