Treehouse TeacherHi there! First, you're using a for loop even though the challenge asks for a while loop. Oddly enough, this doesn't cause the challenge to fail. Keep in mind that for future challenges small things like this can cause a challenge to fail even if otherwise functional.
But there are some problems with your for loop. To begin with, it will never run. You've initialized i to 0 and then said that while 0 is greater than the length of the temperatures array. This will never be the case. The value of i needs to be less than the length of the array.
Also, you've misspelled the name of the array inside the for loop. You have typed tempratures instead of temperatures. Note the additional "e" in the second version.
Lastly, you're logging out the value of i instead of the array element at the index of i. You'd want something like: console.log(temperatures[i]);.
I believe you can get it with these hints, but let me know if you're still stuck!
