I have tried refreshing, restarting the browser, and using multiple browsers, but I get the error every time.
var temperatures = [100,90,99,80,70,65,30,10];
for ( i = 0; i < temperatures.length; i + 1 ) {
console.log( i );
}

You have some errors with your for loop. Firstly, remember: You're iterating through items in the 'temperatures' array, so you need to make sure you're logging the value that is stored at the index of that array that you're currently on. Lastly, you need to increment your counter with += or ++ to make sure that i is adding 1 to itself.
You have:
for ( i = 0; i < temperatures.length; i + 1 ) {
console.log( i );
}
You need:
for ( i = 0; i < temperatures.length; i++ ) {
console.log( temperatures[i] );
}
When I make those changes, the task passes.
