The correct output would be:

#3 - 7

In the given code, the `num` class defines an `__add__` method that overrides the addition operator (`+`). It performs a custom addition operation by adding the value of `self.number` with twice the value of `b.number`.

When `numA` (initialized with `3`) is added to `numB` (initialized with `2`), the `__add__` method is invoked, resulting in `3 + 2 * 2`, which evaluates to `7`. Therefore, the output will be `7`.

How would you rate this answer on a scale of 1 to 5 stars?
