var x =2; // Declare variable x and assign it the value of 2.
do{
x+=2; // Add 2 to the variable (which makes it equal to 4 the first time this loop is run)
console.log(x); // Log the value of x to the console
} // Loop endlessly
} while (x < 24); // This should produce an error, but you'll never get to it because you've closed your loop already.
// Remove the curly brace from the do loop and just use the one before your while.
Does that help? If you need me to rewrite your code or look at your next attempt, I'd be happy to. :)
