I dont understand my mistake.

I called the console.log inside of the braces, so why does it say I only called it once?

script.js 
for (var i = 4; i <157; i += 1); {
  console.log(i);
}

Hi Mustafa,

Your for loop shouldn't have a semicolon on it. That ends the statement, so the for loop isn't ever actually run. Then on the next line console.log is run once. That's the problem. Remove that semicolon on the first line and you should be all set.

Cheers :beers:
