Amount of times looped (var 1 = 0, i < 4, i += 1)

Question

In

(var 1 = 0, i < 4, i += 1);

does the loop run 4 times beginning with 0, 1, 2, 3 or 1, 2, 3, 4.

So something like

(var 1 = 2, i < 6, i += 1);

which runs 4 times as well would loop 2, 3, 4, 5 or 3, 4, 5, 6. I believe it is the former in each scenario, I would just like to be certain.

Hi Keith,

You are correct. It is 2, 3, 4, 5. The addition of '+1' of i doesn't occure until the first loop is over - so during the first one it is equal to 2.

Pay attention it is supposed to be a Semicolon and not a comma between each statemen.

(var i = 2; i < 6; i += 1);

And you can't do " var 1 =2 "; it's " var i =2 "
