I'm doing a project on CodeAcademy and this part requires a for statement.
This is my code:

```
for(i = 1; i <= 20; i++)
console.log(i);

```

Basically, I am just wondering, since the second condition "`i <=20`" is telling it when to stop repeating the code, why does it not stop straight away. Since 1 is less than 20.

I would think that it should be `i = 20` and when `i = 20` it stops.
But that doesn't seem to be the case. Which is really confusing me.
