What is the sentinel value in the following code snippet?

public static void main (String[] args)

{

int age = 0;

int sum_of_ages = 0;

int stop = 1;

Scanner reader = new Scanner (System. in);

System. out. println ("Enter an age (-1 to stop) : ");

age = reader. nextInt ();

while (age! = - 1)

{

sum_of_ages = sum_of_ages + age;

System. out. println ("Enter an age (-1 to stop) : ");

age = reader. nextInt ();

}

System. out. println ("Sum of ages " + sum_of_ages);

return 0;

}
