The issue is the starting condition of your for loop. i >= 156 states that the loop should run while i is greater than or equal to 156, while what you actually want is for it to run while i is less than or equal to 156.

Like this:

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

Hi Dan,

It should be i is less than (<) or equal to 156

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

Hope this help!

Cheers!
