Question

What is output by the following code?

c = 1


sum = 0


while (c < 10):


c = c + 2


sum = sum + c





print (sum):

(anwser is not ("25" "3" "24" "11" "13"))

Answer 1

3

8

15

24

35

Step-by-step explanation:

c starts at value 1 and sum at value 0, in the first loop c is added 2, so the value of c is now 3, then sum is added the value of c, so 0 + 3 = 3.

while checks if 3 is less than 10, it is, so the loop continues. Now 2 is added to the previous value of c, which was 3, so 3 + 2 = 5, c is now 5. c is added to the value of sum which was 3, so 3 + 5 = 8, sum is now 8 and the loop continues...

...after a couple of loops, c = 9, the while checks if 9 is less than 10, it is, so the loop continues one last time. 2 is added to c, so now c = 11. c is added to sum (which at this point has the value of 24), so now sum = 35 and the sum is printed on the screen. The while checks ones last time if 11 is less than 10, it is not, so the loop breaks and the last sum printed was 35.
