What is the output of the following code snippet?

To determine the output of the code snippet, it's essential to analyze how a typical loop structure operates within the context of a programming loop that generates a sequence of numbers based on specific conditions or computations.

If the code snippet is generating a series of numbers incrementally, as suggested by the choice provided, it likely employs some form of iterative logic or mathematical operation that starts from a base number and adds subsequent values based on a defined pattern or series. The series presented in the correct answer—2, 4, 7, 11, 16, 22—indicates a combination of both arithmetic and progressive increments, where numbers grow not just by a constant value but also by increasing additional steps at certain intervals.

For example, the pattern shows:

• Starting at 2, the next value adds 2, making 4.
• The next number, 7, adds 3 to 4.
• Following that, from 7 to 11, there's an addition of 4.
• From 11 to 16, it adds 5, and finally, it jumps from 16 to 22 by adding 6.

This demonstrates a progressive pattern of incrementally increasing the additive value, which aligns with the option presented.
