Tell us what’s happening:

I have a problem, and it has slowed down my progress. I have been asked to add an “if” statement to my loop so as to check if “done” is equal to “count” using the equality operator, and I have tried all ways but to avail. Somebody Help

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) {
  done++;
if done == count;
}

// User Editable Region


let result = ""

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

console.log(result);

Hi there and welcome to our community!

The condition for the if statement should be in parentheses and you should have a pair of curly brackets following the condition, into which you can put the code which will be executed if the condition is met.

while (continueLoop == done)

You were also not asked to change the loop condition.
