Find the intermediate value

Report a typo

A programmer wrote pseudocode for an algorithm that takes a number as input, raises it to the second power, then adds 10 to it and returns the result:

BEGIN
    NUMBER A = 16
    A = A ^ 2
    result = A + 10
    RETURN result
END

The programmer implemented the code and ran it with a breakpoint at the line result = A + 10. What will be the value of variable A at the breakpoint, if A was equal to 16 at the beginning?
