Hi Edward,

I see one error in your code, which is a misplaced semicolon.

for(int i = 0; i<= number; i++); <--- This semicolon breaks your code

When that is fixed your code will work, but it will not be be able to get you past this challenge just yet. The error you receive will be very helpful and let's see if you can figure it out on your own, if not I will guide you :)

I hope this helps
