Hi Valeriya,

For the most part, you have it correct, except I'm not sure why you have created and are using a variable called 'html'. The challenge didn't ask for this and it doesn't actually do what you need to do.

The challenge just wants a for loop that "logs to the console ..."

Your for loop is correct, but you are logging out the weird html variable. Delete all references to that and change the log to log out the variable i that you have created in the for loop.

for (i = 4; i <= 156; i += 1) {
console.log(i);
}

This is all that is needed. I think you may have been over-thinking the challenge.

Keep Coding! :)
