Python Coding Challange - Question with Answer (01110925)

 

Step 1: Initial value

s = 10

---

Step 2: Loop range

range(1, 4) → values are 1, 2, 3

---

Step 3: Iterations

• When i = 1 → s = 10 - (1*2) = 8

• When i = 2 → s = 8 - (2*2) = 4

• When i = 3 → s = 4 - (3*2) = -2

---

Step 4: Final result

After the loop ends, s = -2

So the program prints:

Output → -2

---

✅ Explanation:
Each iteration subtracts i*2 from s. Starting from 10, after subtracting 2, then 4, then 6, the result becomes -2.
