Please Help Guyz, its so easy but i am get stuck into it

Create a for loop that logs the numbers 4 to 156 to the console. To log a value to the console use the console.log( ) method.

script.js 
for (var i = 3; i<156; i++){
  console.log(i);
  i+=1;
}

Initial value of i and end condition are not right, also you don't need to increment i in the loop body.

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

firstly, start with your index variable (i) at 4, because the loop begins by running once. Then take out the additional i+=1 as you already have 1 being added to i for each loop in the arguments. it should look like this-

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

I hope this helps

umm ... you missed the var keyword for i declaration, also, the end condition should be i<=156

yeah, you're right.. I didn't mean to point in the wrong direction by making those mistakes.. but the main point I was making was that he needed to start at i=4 and to remove that extraneous i+=1.

Thanks. :)
