What's wrong with this program?

Java

I can’t understand what’s wrong with this program. It’s not stopping at i<=number

public class AddNumbers {

public static void main(String[] args) {
	// TODO Auto-generated method stub
	
	int number = 10;
	for (int i = 1; i <= number; ++i) {
		number +=i;
	}

	System.out.println(number);
	
}

}

Try adding some logging inside your loop and I think you’ll see what’s going on.

System.out.println("i");
System.out.println(i);
System.out.println("number");
System.out.println(number);

Hi,
The condition to get out of the loop is i <= number.

Every loop increment i by 1.
Every loop increment number by i.
So basically number grows faster than i.
You’ll never meet the condition to exit the loop.
Regards.

EDIT: I did a fiddle to check and in practice it stops at some time probably because of the type boundaries.
