Hello, challenge task on for loop, I cannot get it right?

I don't understand the "no longer passing"

variable_assignment.mm 
int mathTotal;
bool isComplete;

for (mathTotal = 5; mathTotal <=24; mathTotal ++)
{
  if (mathTotal==25)
     {
     isComplete = TRUE;
     }
}

Hi, from the code I suspect it will never get to if statement.

When your loop reach 24 it ends, it will never reach 25. Please try to change value in if to 24 or value in for loop check to 25.

So either that:

int mathTotal; bool isComplete;

for (mathTotal = 5; mathTotal <=25; mathTotal ++)
{
  if (mathTotal==25)
     {
     isComplete = TRUE;
     }
}

or that:

int mathTotal;
bool isComplete;

for (mathTotal = 5; mathTotal <=24; mathTotal ++)
{
  if (mathTotal==24)
     {
     isComplete = TRUE;
     }
}

will do!

Cheers!
