why this simple code dosent work for this question?
Create a file named for-loop.js.

In that file define a variable named total and make it equal the number 0.

Define a second variable named limit and make it equal the number 10.

Create a for loop with a variable i starting at 0 and increasing by 1 each
time through the loop. The loop should run as long as i is less than
limit.

On each iteration of the loop, add the number i to the total variable. To
do this, you can use this statement:

 total += i  

When this statement is used in a for loop, it can also be known as an
accumulator. Think of it like a cash register's running total while each
item is scanned and added up. For this challenge, you have 10 items and
they just happen to be increasing in price by 1 each item (with the first
item free!).

After the for loop, use console.log() to print the total variable to the
terminal.

my answer:
var total = 0
var limit = 10
for (let i = 0; i < limit; i++) {
total += i
}
console.log(total)

@alt-ab you have little typo on line 4. I think total += i will be okay.
