Create a for loop that logs the numbers 5 to 100 to the console. Use the console.log() method to log a value

script.js 
for ( let i = 5; 5 < 100; i++ ) {
  console.log (i);
}

Look at your code again; you have 5 < 100 instead of i < 100. Also it's from 5 to 100 inclusive, i.e. 100 should also be logged to the console.

Not sure why I got -2 points when my information was perfectly accurate and clear....

So I will get several thumbs down unless I explicitly post the correct answer?

"...you have 5 < 100 instead of i < 100.":

for ( let i = 5; *5* < 100; i++ ) {
  console.log (i);
}

*5 should be i.

"...100 should also be logged to the console.":

for ( let i = 5; 5 *<* 100; i++ ) {
  console.log (i);
}

*< should be <=.

Hopefully that makes it even more obvious why the answer was wrong. Hint: Look at what I've surrounded with '*'s.

for ( let i = 5; i <= 100; i++ ) { console.log( 100 ); }
