Problem: While Loop Simulation

	For each call below to the following method, write the output that is produced, as it would appear on the console: 

public static void whileMystery(int n) {
	int x = 0;
	int y = 1;
	while(n > x && n > y) {
		n--;
		x = x + 2;
		y = y + x;
	}
	System.out.println(x);
}

1) whileMystery(5); 

2) whileMystery(10); 

3) whileMystery(4);
