JavaScript JavaScript Objects Loop Through Objects Display an Array of Objects on the Page – One Solution

I learned a valuable lesson, go over your coding again and again.

I did the code correctly, but for some reason the message would only display the last rotation of the loop... I had no idea what was going on and was going mad because in my head the code was correct...but I was not getting the correct output... so I frustratingly watched Gill's vid on how he did it...turns out I was spot on with my coding but happen to forget the (+) when adding my string to the HTML= ' ' var... therefore it was not adding every loop rotation to the message and only giving me the final rotation (object). I had previously gave up on code last year due to this very lesson so I was so angry that even now, with much more understanding this time around, still couldnt figure it out. Turns out if I had just reviewed my code more closely I would have caught the easy fix. Im glad I have a much better understanding now.

Welcome to the world of coding. Sometimes it really is better to get out, get a smoke, relax for a bit then go back to your code. Usually you would find the error with fresher eyes and mind than spend two to three hours looking for that damn semi-colon that's ruining your day.
