Maybe 4 is how many times a number is printed: 2 1 0 -1

It can't be 4, because i gets lower not higher, so in the last loop we have: i = 0 (condition is satisfied) i = i - 1 ( so i = -1 ) And it stops there, output is -1, run it again.

Can you give us the specific question? Is it asking for what i is after the loop is done or how many times the while iterates through it?
