FizzBuzz Part 3

Today i'm going over using a for loop in javascript to do a countdown from 10 - 0 and printing "Blast Off!" when the counter gets to zero.

for ( i = 10; i >=0 ; i-- ) {
    if (i == 0)
    {
        console.log("Blast Off!");
    }
    else
    {
        console.log(i);
    }
}

So the for loop starts at i = 10; then for all numbers > than or = to 0, counting down in each loop i--.

The if else statement says when/if i gets to 0 (i==0) the program will log to the console the string "Blast Off".  For all other numbers that i is == to (each number ( i )) just log to the console that specific number.

*Note: Use the double = (==) to mean equals.  I sometimes forget too so don't worry if you did remember.  Since this is javascript, make sure the { has a closing } and that you use semi colon ; in the right place.

Next we will use this knowledge to solve FizzBuzz.

Post comments or questions below.  Have fun with it and most importantly learn some new code today.
