Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Understand the loop and break condition
The loop runs from 1 to 5. When $i equals 3, the break statement stops the loop immediately.
Step 2: Trace the output before break
For $i = 1 and 2, the script outputs the value. When $i = 3, break stops the loop before output.
Final Answer:
1 2 -> Option A
Quick Check:
Break stops loop at 3, outputs before = D [OK]

Quick Trick: Break stops loop before output at condition [OK]
