Solution

The code will print 16. Here's how:

  1. Initialize counter to 1 and sum to 0.
  2. Enter the while loop, since counter (1) is less than or equal to 6.
  3. Increment counter by 2, making counter now 3.
  4. Add counter (3) to sum (0), making sum now 3.
  5. Loop back to the start of the while loop, since counter (3) is still less than or equal to 6.
  6. Increment counter by 2, making counter now 5.
  7. Add counter (5) to sum (3), making sum now 8.
  8. Loop back to the start of the while loop, since counter (5) is still less than or equal to 6.
  9. Increment counter by 2, making counter now 7.
  10. Add counter (7) to sum (8), making sum now 15.
  11. Try to loop back to the start of the while loop, but counter (7) is now greater than 6, so exit the loop.
  12. Print sum (15), which is the final output.
