    Default Trouble with FOR LOOP statement!

    Hi

    I'm a code cadet and I'm having trouble with this exercise:

    "We've already declared a variable for you in the editor called number to which the value 42 was assigned.
    Use a for loop to go through all numbers from number up to 50 (both inclusive), and check if they are multiples of 3. If they are, print them."

    My code is:

    var number = 42
    for (var number = 42; number <= 50; number++) {
    if (number % 3 === 0)
    console.log(number);
    }

    And the result is >>>>Code is incorrect
    You should have an if statement to check if each value of the variable number is a multiple of 3

    I can't find what I'm doing wrong, can you please help me? Also the answer that is giving me it's '51' and that's not a multiple o 3.

    Thanks!

    There are several syntax errors in the posted code. Look at the compiler's error messages and fix the errors.
    If you need help fixing the errors, post the full text of the error message and ask any questions you have about fixing it.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.

    Already solved! Thanks for your help! The code was correct but the test program was bugging with something that I still don't know what it was. I deleted everything and did it again exactly in the same way and it was correct.

    The syntax errors were already edited in this post but they were exclusively on this post because I couldn't copy and paste from the original test program and I didn't noticed those typing errors here! Sorry about that

    Cheers
