Why does the following code cause an infinite loop ? And how to fix the problem

let index = 10;
let jump = 2;

for (;;) {
  // Write Your Code Here
     let i = index;
     console.log(i);
     i -= jump;
     if (i === jump) {
         break;
     }
 }

I think that I know the logic of the code, but I don’t understand why it does loop infinitely

>Solution :

maybe the following code fixes the problem.

let index = 10;
let jump = 2;
let i = index;

for (;;) {
  // Write Your Code Here
     
     console.log(i);
     i -= jump;
     if (i === jump) {
         break;
         console.log('broken...')
     }
 }

The reason is variable i is being refreshed with static index value 10 every time it loops. Hence it never breaks.
