I got this right! I learned my lesson from the last time - after equivocating for a minute, wondering "the choice of 1 is too easy, maybe there's a trick" - I decided that no trick was evident based on the code.

Simple question for many at SSC, I suppose. But still worth looking at and being able to explain for "lesser experts" (i.e., those of us who get too many QOTD questions wrong :-))
