Front End Web Development Techdegree Student 21,661 Pointseven number challenge
I am trying to do the challenge where (I think) we need to find % of 2. As I need to move the redundant code into loop, so I tired following
for(var i = 2; i % 0 ; i++){
console.log(i)
}
var i = 2;
if(i % 2 === 0){
}
I think my logic is wrong as it is my first time doing it. I want to print even number upto 24
console.log(2);
console.log(4);
console.log(6);
console.log(8);
console.log(10);
console.log(12);
console.log(14);
console.log(16);
console.log(18);
console.log(20);
console.log(22);
console.log(24);
for(var i = 2; i / 2 ; i++){
console.log(i)
}

230,688 PointsA "for" loop has 3 clauses: initialization, condition, and loop expression.
The initialization establishes the start: var i = 2
means the loop will start with the value 2 in "i".
The condition determines if it will repeat. Since you want it to go up to (and including) 24, a good condition might be: i <= 24
Then the loop expression is what should happen before the repeat. Since you want only even numbers, it would make sense to increase "i" by 2: i += 2

Front End Web Development Techdegree Student 21,661 PointsThat was easy, why not i+2 why i+=2?

230,688 PointsThe expression "
i + 2
" returns the correct value but doesn't store it anywhere. But "i += 2
" stores the new value back into the variable "i".
