Hi again !

I know what was your problem. You think 3 and it is not in the solution.

What a luck for you ! That means there's a trap.

Answer : 4 times.

It is doAFTERbody, not doSTARTbody.

Condition is evaluated after printed.
So, 10, 11, 12 are good but even 13 since AFTER it will not return to evaluate the body again.

Hope this help !
