28,558 PointsThere are two issues, one which has to do with the code checker itself, and one that is an actual error in your code.
The first issue is that in JavaScript courses that was developed before Treehouse started teaching ES6 features (let, const, arrow functions, etc) the code checker is often not configured to deal with said features. So it will only accept older ES5 compliant code. In this case that means you have to use var instead of let.
The second issue is that since the condition of your loop is that i needs to be less than 156 it will stop once i becomes 156, which means that 156 is never actually printed out. The condition needs to be that i should be less than or equal to 156.
If you fix those two issues like this:
for (var i = 4; i <= 156; i++){
console.log(i);
}
Then your code will pass.

4,683 PointsThank you! Correct less than or equal to! I did happen to figure out the let and var issue but I do appreciate your input!

4,683 PointsIt wants me to console log 4-156. I believe I nailed it but team treehouse won't pass me. The error is stating I have a syntax error but can't seem to see it...
