Listen to the audio and answer the question below.
What might be a result of using the for loop, according to Sophie?
The loop will always execute the correct number of times.
If the loop doesn't account for all conditions, it might skip important cases or stop too soon.
The program will never run into any issues.
A for loop that doesn't handle edge cases properly can lead to unexpected errors or logic mistakes.
The code will immediately crash.
While it might cause problems, unexpected behavior doesn't always mean a crash — it can also mean incorrect outputs or skipped steps.
The program might produce results that are different from what is expected.

Unexpected behavior refers to results that differ from what was intended. This can include errors, incorrect calculations, or skipping important cases. Some examples of unexpected behavior in loops are:
Incorrect output - The program runs but gives wrong results.
Infinite repetition - The loop runs forever.
Unexpected termination - The loop might cause an error that stops execution.
System crash - Rare, but possible with memory-related issues.
