Hi Ellie,

You've got the syntax nailed down very well, but you want to log EVERY number from 4 to 156. If you look at the challenge it states it has to be inclusive of 4 and 156. The way to do this is with the <= operator which means a condition that is less than AND equal to the condition.

What you're trying to do is count every 4th number.. But to increment you can use either +=1 or ++.

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

Hope this helps :)
