here is the Bummer hat was told: (Bummer! You didn't log out the even numbers from 2 to 24)
for ( var i = 2; i <= 12; i += 1 ) {
console.log( i )

Treehouse TeacherHi there! You have a good start, and your syntax is spot on but it's not doing what you think it's doing. It should be printing out all even numbers between 2 and 24 (inclusive). However, your code prints out all numbers between 2 and 12 (inclusive). It's even printing out the odd ones. I encourage you to run your code in the console and take a look at what it's producing.
I wrote it like this:
for ( var i = 2; i <= 24; i += 2 ) {
console.log( i )
}
This starts our count with 2 and goes up to 24 (inclusive). Then we increment by two each time (as opposed to 1).
Hope this clarifies things!

Courses Plus Student 26,735 PointsHey
Almost there.
for (var i = 2; i < 25; i += 2) {
console.log(i);
}
This sets i to 2. Then loops +=2 until it is less than 25. Hope this helps
Happy coding

1,091 Pointsit isn't 25 it is 24 though but thanks for your support too :)

Courses Plus Student 26,735 PointsYeah. Mine works also but I think Jennifers is best practice though. :)
Jennifer Nordell
Treehouse TeacherYes, your does work and I don't believe either one of ours is really "best practice". I'm of the opinion that it doesn't matter. I was just attempting to keep the code as close to the original as possible
