What am I doing wrong?

My workspace didn't work for the video tutorial for this lesson either, so I'm kinda lost.

script.js 
var log = " ";

for  (var i = 4; i >= 4 || i <= 156; i += 1 ) {
    log += i;
}

console.log(log);

A couple of things:

  • You only need the <= 156 condition. You're starting at 4 and going upwards, so i will always be greater than 4. By including this in an or statement means that your loop will run forever.
  • The challenge just wants you to print the numbers one at a time. You don't need to add anything.
for  (var i = 4; i <= 156; i += 1 ) {
    console.log(i);
