2 is added at the end of each iteration, therefore: 1. iteration: x = 1 * 1 => 1 x += 2 => 3 2. iteration (x is still smaller than 6): x = 3 * 3 => 9 x += 2 => 11 Now x doesn't satisfy the condition any longer, and the result is 11.

go thru the steps: x=1 x=1 //multiply x by x =3 //add 2 =9 // multiply x by x =11 // add 2
