This code performs the following actions:

1. Importing the Counter class:
   It imports the Counter class from the collections module, which is used for counting hashable objects (like strings in this case).

2. Counting occurrences of elements:
   The code defines a list words containing repeated strings: ["apple", "banana", "apple", "orange", "banana", "apple"].
   The Counter is instantiated with this list, creating a dictionary-like object word_counts that counts the number of occurrences of each word in the list.
   The resulting word_counts would be:

   Counter({'apple': 3, 'banana': 2, 'orange': 1})
   

3. Printing the word count:
   The code prints word_counts using the print statement, showing the count of each word.

4. Finding the most common elements:
   The method most_common(2) is called on word_counts.
   This retrieves the 2 most common words along with their counts in descending order.
   For the given input, the result would be:

   [('apple', 3), ('banana', 2)]
   

5. Printing the most common elements:
   The code prints the result of most_common(2).

Output of the Code:

word_counts: Counter({'apple': 3, 'banana': 2, 'orange': 1})
word_counts.most_common(2): [('apple', 3), ('banana', 2)]

Summary:

The code counts the occurrences of each word in the list words and retrieves the 2 most common words along with their counts.
