var brackets = [];
for(i = 0; i < 5; i++){
brackets.push(15 += 5)
}
I want to use this code to add a new element to the array each time, but the new elements have to be added in increments of 5, starting from 15. It will go 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40.
var brackets = [];
for(i = 0; i <= 5; i++){
brackets.push(15+5*i))
}
var brackets = [];
for(var i = 15; i < 45; i+=5){
brackets.push(i);
}
var brackets = [];
for(i = 0; i < 5; i++){
brackets.push(15 += 5)
}
First of all, when you put "15 += 5" means nothing, because 15 is a number not a variable.. unless you put a variable "a" like this:
var brackets = [15];
var a=15;
for(i = 0; i < 5; i++){
brackets.push(a += 5)
}
and
var brackets = [15];
for(i = 0; i < 5; i++){ brackets.push(brackets[0] += 5) }
But it gives this output: [ 40, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40 ]
well.. "brackets[0]" is a variable... when you do "brackets[0] += 5" it will do 15+5 and store the result (20) on brackets[0], after that it does "brackets.push(20)" in which brackets has now [20,20].. the second time it will be [25,20,25], after that [30,20,25,30] and so on until you get [40,20,25,30,35,40].. A solution for this one would be:
var brackets = [15];
for(i = 0; i < 5; i++){ brackets.push(brackets[i] + 5) }
15 += 5to do?for (var i = 15; i <= 40; i += 5) { ... }
