Answer:

When it runs it will print out:

2
3
4

Details

The first number printed is "2" because COUNT was started out at 2 and 2 < 5 is true:

' Loop with LESS THAN ending test
'
LET COUNT = 2            'Statement 1
'
DO WHILE COUNT  < 5      'Statement 2
  PRINT COUNT            'Statement 3
  LET COUNT = COUNT + 1  'Statement 4
LOOP 
END
The program keeps increasing and printing COUNT until COUNT reaches 5. Then it fails the condition 5 < 5 so the program ends. Here is what happens in detail:

COUNT condition true or false what happens
2 2 < 5 true loop body executed,
COUNT increased by 1
3 3 < 5 true loop body executed,
COUNT increased by 1
4 4 < 5 true loop body executed,
COUNT increased by 1
5 5 < 5 false loop body NOT executed,
execution skips to END.

To be sure that your boredom is complete, look at another program:

' Loop with different beginning
'
LET COUNT = -2             'Statement 1
'
DO WHILE COUNT  < 2      'Statement 2
  PRINT COUNT            'Statement 3
  LET COUNT = COUNT + 1  'Statement 4
LOOP 
END
Here COUNT is started out with a value of -2. This is OK. The DO WHILE "gatekeeper" can test negative numbers as well as positive numbers, and -2 is certainly less than 2.

QUESTION 5:

What will the new version of the program print out?
