Limit the counter?

Is there a way I can limit the variable or somehow make it stop counting when it reaches a certain number? Everything I try just kinda crashes the Sololearn app. https://code.sololearn.com/WQtkfnr8ukt3/?ref=app

Adjust the value checked as necessary. function Add() { if(i == 5) return false; i++; document.getElementById("Output").innerHTML = i; } function Subtract() { if(i == -5) return false; i--; document.getElementById("Output").innerHTML = i; } Hth, cmiiw

use an if statement inside your add and subtract function to check if is equal to a certain number if satisfied disable the button https://code.sololearn.com/W5j4ZeuQeS4O/?ref=app
