Javascript Execution Time Out

infinite loop... until your input is greater than 25... you update i value with seconds-1 wich is constant ^^ you should test while (i <= seconds) and increment i: function main() { var seconds = parseInt(readLine(),10); var i = 0; while (i < seconds) { console.log(i), ++i; } }

Since i=0, and i<=24 is always true, because seconds values not changing ,hence i = seconds-1 is also always same. So while loop becomes infinite loop.. so you get time out...

This is an infinite loop. The program never ends executing. Suppose seconds variable is 10. i will always be 9. And 9 is less than 24, making the condition is always true and thus infinite loop occurs.

Thank you guys! I tried visph code and I don't get an error code now which is nice...though is there a way to count down from the input number instead of count up from 0?

yes: you could avoid i and use input (seconds): while (0 <= seconds) { console.log(seconds); --seconds; }

function main() { var seconds = parseInt(readLine(), 10) // Your code here while(seconds>=0){ console.log(seconds) seconds -- } }

Thank you so much, I got it!

function main() { var seconds = parseInt(readLine(), 10) // Your code here while (seconds>=0){ console.log(seconds); seconds--; } }

Any remarks? This outcome seems to work too... function main() { var seconds = parseInt(readLine(), 10) var i = 0 // Your code here while (i<=seconds){console.log (seconds--)} }

function main() { var seconds = parseInt(readLine(), 10) // Your code here var i=0; while(i<=seconds){ console.log(seconds); --seconds; } }
