Hey Andrei,

firstly I'd like to recommend that you should post your code in a more legible way (e.g. indentation, line breaks) so it's easier for people who'd like to help you to understand your code.

I think the problem you're having exists because your for loop is missing its instructions. It looks like you forgot to finish your for loop.

After changing your code to this it should work:

var students = [ 

    {
        name: 'Marcel', 
        track: 'Front-End development', 
        achievements: 4, 
        points: 2000, 
        languages: ['Html', 'CSS3', 'JavaScript']
    },
    {
        name: 'Iohanis', 
        track: 'Back-End development', 
        achievements: 8, 
        points: 2750, 
        languages: ['Html', 'JavaScript', 'PhP']
    },
    {
        name: 'Popescu', 
        track: 'PhP development', 
        achievements: 5, 
        points: 1400, 
        languages: ['Html', 'JavaScript', 'PhP', 'SqL']
    },
    {
        name: 'Simona', 
        track: 'JavaScript development', 
        achievements: 6, 
        points: 1860, 
        languages: ['Html', 'JavaScript', 'Node Js']},
    {
        name: 'Marian', 
        track: ' Web design', 
        achievements: 7, 
        points: 3000, 
        languages: ['Html', 'CSS3']
    }

];



function print(message) { 
    var outputDiv = document.getElementById('output'); 
        outputDiv.innerHTML = message; 
}

var message = ''; 
var student;

for(var i = 0; i < students.length; i++) {
    student = students[i]; 
    message += '<h2>Student: ' + student.name + '</h2>'; 
}

print(message);
