At previous quiz there is a question about exiting the loop.
Which of the following statements will make the JavaScript interpreter exit a loop even when the loop condition is still true?
The correct answer is break; which is actually logical, but return will also break the loop, so that might be correct answer as well.

In some cases they may have same practical outcome (like causing a loop to terminate), but it is not exactly the same.

A break function immediately terminates a program when it reaches its turn to function regardless if the condition statement was met or not.

Quiz Question 1 of 6 Please fill in the correct answer in each blank provided below.
Complete the code below to create a for loop that executes 10 times, writing the value of the variable i to the document each time: my answer
for (var i = 0; i <=10 ; i += 1 {
document.write(i);
}
I have also tried <10 and less than 11
can you help

24,397 PointsDid you figure out the correct solution already ? I'm sorry for late response. I'm not sure what was the correct solution, but I suppose you might try something like
for (var i = 0; i <=10 ; i += 1 {
document.write(i);
break;
// maybe break will need condition here
}
please try.
