Hi Mirali Mirzayev ,

You are on the right track but just need to revisit some of your code. A common mistake that has been made in the challenge is trying to sort or display the results in descending order. The challenge only requires you to log the temperatures in the order they are listed, no sorting is required to complete the challenge.

The challenge requires you to log the temperatures in the order of the first item to the last. The output to the console would be:

  • 100
  • 90
  • 99
  • 80
  • 70
  • 65
  • 30
  • 10

To achieve this we need to iterate through the array using a for loop.

// The array of temperatures
var temperatures = [100,90,99,80,70,65,30,10];

// For loop: index starts a 0 and then increments by 1 during each loop
for (var i = 0; i < temperatures.length; i++){
    // Log the current temperature to the console by using i (index) of temperature
    console.log(temperatures[i]);
}
