Bummer: Your code took too long to run. I keep getting this message every time I run my answer.

I am not sure what's going on.

script.js 
var count = 0;
while (count < 26) {
  document.write (count);
}

HI, Julieth Arenas

var count = 0;
while (count < 26) {
  count = count + 1;
  document.write (count);
}

If you forget to increase the variable used in the condition, the loop will never end. This will crash your browser.
