until "num" is minor or equal to 5, it ask you a "number", add it to "total", and increment "num".

its saying that while num is less than or equal to 5, it will keep repeating. so if num starts at 0, then the num++ will keep ading 1 to num. num++ means num + 1... so the loop keeps changing num until it gets to 5 then it will stop when 5 turns to 6 because then num <= 5 will be false and stop the loop....
