FC0-U71 Practice Question: Based on the exhibit, what will be the last value…
Exhibit
Refer to the exhibit. SET count = 1 WHILE count <= 5 OUTPUT count count = count + 1 ENDWHILE
Based on the exhibit, what will be the last value output?
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
5
The loop runs while count <= 5. It outputs 1,2,3,4,5. The last output is 5. Then count becomes 6 and loop exits. 1 is first, 6 is not output because loop ends.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
6
Why it's wrong here
The exhibit's loop terminates before reaching 6, so this value is never printed as the final output. It tempts because 6 is the loop's upper bound, and candidates assume the counter reaches its limit; that would hold only if the condition used an inclusive comparison rather than stopping earlier.
- ✓
5
Why this is correct
The loop increments the counter until the condition fails, so the final printed value reflects the last iteration before exit. Because the counter reaches 5 and the loop terminates at that point, 5 is the last value output, satisfying the exhibit's termination constraint.
- ✗
10
Why it's wrong here
The exhibit's loop or counter terminates before reaching ten, so the final printed value differs. Ten tempts as the obvious round endpoint of a counting sequence, but the actual last output depends on the loop's increment and stopping condition shown in the exhibit.
- ✗
1
Why it's wrong here
The exhibit's final printed value is not 1; the counter has already advanced past its starting value by the last iteration. It tempts because 1 is the initialisation value, and candidates assume the loop resets or prints its seed; that would apply only if the exhibit printed before incrementing.
