JavaScript

Tell us what’s happening:

For Step 82 in pyramid generator. put in the same code as seen in the help section with the answers but code is still not passing.

while (continueLoop) {
done++;
rows.push(padRow(done, count));
if (done !== count) {
continueLoop = false;
}
}

Your code so far

const character = "#";
const count = 8;
const rows = [];

function padRow(rowNumber, rowCount) {
  return " ".repeat(rowCount - rowNumber) + character.repeat(2 * rowNumber - 1) + " ".repeat(rowCount - rowNumber);
}

// TODO: use a different type of loop
/*for (let i = 1; i <= count; i++) {
  rows.push(padRow(i, count));
}*/

let continueLoop = false;
let done = 0;


// User Editable Region

while (continueLoop) {
  done++;
  rows.push(padRow(done, count));
if (done !== count) {
    continueLoop = false;
  } 
} 

// User Editable Region


let result = ""

for (const row of rows) {
  result = result + "\n" + row;
}

console.log(result);

Welcome to the forum!

Check the text again, it wants you to change the condition of the while loop.

Hint:
Syntax

while(condition){
do this
}

should i use if statement again in while loop

Update your while loop (condition) to check if done is not equal !== to count. You didn’t need if statement, only change the while loop’s condition. Reset your challenge and try again.

So much of learning JS is getting the syntax straight. Thanks for this!
