16,515 PointsHow to Run a Loop?
This is a nearly complete while loop, but something is missing. The loop should run 10 times, but it's not working at all. Can you fix it?
Bummer! The document.write() method was called 9 times. It should be called 10 times.
var counter = 1;
while ( counter < 10 ) {
document.write("<p>Now in loop #" + counter + "</p>");
counter += 1;
}

Treehouse TeacherYou're so close! You're missing a grand total of one character. It starts at one and will only run while counter is less than 10. So it will do it from 1 to 9 which means it does it 9 times... not 10. You can fix this by making the following change:
while ( counter <= 10)
That will make it run from one to 10... including 10 (so a total of 10 times). Happy coding!
