2,907 PointsCan not get this code to work!
I believe this to be the correct way, im sure its a simple syntax mistake but I can not see it! please help!
var temperatures = [100,90,99,80,70,65,30,10];
for (var i = 0; i < temperatures.length; 1++;) {
console.log(temperatures[i]);
}

// change this
for (var i = 0; i < temperatures.length; 1++;)
// to this
for (var i = 0; i < temperatures.length; i++)
Tested and works.

Courses Plus Student 16,352 PointsHi Eric,
Your loop is trying to increment the value of 1 instead of the value of i.

2,907 Pointsyeah that must have been a typo, I did change the 1 to "i ++" and i also tried "i +=" like the video and still getting parse error.

Courses Plus Student 16,352 PointsThere can't be a space when using i++
. Also, you can use i +=
but there must be a value for it to increment by. So, i += 1
would work.

2,907 Pointsi tried it like 5 times and it still was not working but before i threw my computer out the window i decided to close the browser and reopen it and it worked... so it must have been a bug on top of my original syntax errors! alas it is working now! thank you very much!
