9,910 Pointsloop + push + array
I'm trying to push a series of images with id of #img-0, img-1, img-3 etc.. inside the array called imgFolder. I'm trying like this, which I don't know if it's correct cause i'm a beginner, but it seems to crash the browser when i run the html page. it crash the same way it does when it try to run an infinite loop.
let imgFolder = [];
for(i=0; i=4; i+=1){ let imgSelector = document.querySelector('#img-'+i); imgFolder.push(imgSelector); }

" which is always "true".
You probably meant to write "i<4
" instead.
