Here's a few hints on the issues:

  • variables should be declared only once (so you can remove the top line)
  • the loop has the wrong keyword for the structure, this is a "for" loop
  • the increment clause has "counter" instead of "count"
  • the logging should be done from inside the loop (before the ending brace)
