Here is a short Python program.

```python
size = 5
count = 7
weight = 4
if weight < 9:
    count = weight if weight < weight else weight + 1
    size += weight
else:
    count = size if size > size else size + 4
size += count
if count >= 2:
    count = weight - 6
    weight = count - 5
else:
    weight = weight + 9
    weight -= size
weight = size - 1
if size == 1:
    count += 4
else:
    weight = count if count < size else size + 4
    weight += weight
count = size + 2
count = size + 8
count = size if size > weight else weight + 2
weight += size
```

After this program runs, what is the value of `size`? Work through it carefully, then give the final answer on its own last line as `ANSWER: <python literal>`.

To find the final value of `size`, let's trace the program step-by-step:

1.  **Initial values:**
    `size = 5`
    `count = 7`
    `weight = 4`

2.  **First `if` block:**
    `if weight < 9:` (4 < 9 is **True**)
    - `count = weight if weight < weight else weight + 1`
      (4 < 4 is False, so `count = 4 + 1 = 5`)
    - `size += weight`
      (`size = 5 + 4 = 9`)
    - *Else block is skipped.*

3.  **Update `size`:**
    `size += count`
    (`size = 9 + 5 = 14`)

4.  **Second `if` block:**
    `if count >= 2:` (5 >= 2 is **True**)
    - `count = weight - 6`
      (`count = 4 - 6 = -2`)
    - `weight = count - 5`
      (`weight = -2 - 5 = -7`)
    - *Else block is skipped.*

5.  **Update `weight`:**
    `weight = size - 1`
    (`weight = 14 - 1 = 13`)

6.  **Third `if` block:**
    `if size == 1:` (14 == 1 is **False**)
    - *If block is skipped.*
    - `else:`
      - `weight = count if count < size else size + 4`
        (-2 < 14 is True, so `weight = -2`)
      - `weight += weight`
        (`weight = -2 + (-2) = -4`)

7.  **Final sequence of updates:**
    - `count = size + 2` (`count = 14 + 2 = 16`)
    - `count = size + 8` (`count = 14 + 8 = 22`)
    - `count = size if size > weight else weight + 2`
      (14 > -4 is True, so `count = 14`)
    - `weight += size`
      (`weight = -4 + 14 = 10`)

Throughout the final steps, the variable `size` was never modified again after the line `size += count` (where it became 14).

Final value of `size`: 14
