I assume that the expected result was that you should log the numbers 4, 5, 6, ..., 156 in the console. However your code only logs 157, and this is because you do not have console.log(num) inside your for-loop.

The code should have been:

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

Hi Ben,

If you put your console.log() call inside the curly braces of the for loop, this will work just fine.

Steve.
