While in Chrome

Hello, can someone explain why in chorme this snippet writes numbers from 0 to 10? var i = 0; while (i < 10) { console.log(i); i=i+1; } This other instead seems to work correctly: var i = 0; while (i < 10) { console.log(i); i++; } In Edge both work the same;

I think the difference is due to the fact that chrome shows the last value evaluated apart the result of console.log, so after the last console.log i++ (++i act like i=i+1) is evaluated 9 whereas i=i+1 is evaluated 10;
