[Javascript ch7 while loop problem]

Ok, Stefan, thanks for your time.

I think I get it now. I had to think that while loop over.

It's 2:30 in the morning right now, so I guess I might be crazy.

[Javascript ch7 while loop problem]

Hi everyone,

I need some help regarding the topic of while loop mentioned in ch7 lesson3. I'm stuck for first time in this course. Till now everything was super easy, but now I really don't understand what's going on in this loop.

There is that loop:

var loopCount = 5;

				while(loopCount > 0) {

						var target = document.getElementById("target");
						target.innerHTML = "LoopCount: " + loopCount + "<br>" + target.innerHTML;
						console.log("LoopCount is now: " + loopCount);
						loopCount = loopCount -1;
					}

In console result looks like this:

LoopCount is now: 5
LoopCount is now: 4
LoopCount is now: 3
LoopCount is now: 2
LoopCount is now: 1
End loop

but in html it starts from 1 to 5, why?:

LoopCount: 1
LoopCount: 2
LoopCount: 3
LoopCount: 4
LoopCount: 5

I don't understand that line:

target.innerHTML = "LoopCount: " + loopCount + "<br>" + target.innerHTML;

Since in the beginning variable loopCount is set to 5, why in html it starts with 1. Where is it come from?

Thanks
