## Apply a Style Until a Condition is Met with @while
 Remember to use **`Read-Search-Ask`** if you get stuck. Try to pair program  and write your own code 
### Problem Explanation:
This program is very simple, the trick is to remember how while looping works.
##  Hint: 0
* **Make sure your zoom settings are at `100%` or `default` otherwise tests sometimes fail. **
##  Hint: 1
* You will initialise the loop first with x as: `$x: 1`
> _try to solve the problem now_
##  Hint: 2
* See the example for `@while` syntax, `@while $x < 11`
> _try to solve the problem now_
##  Hint: 3
* to set class properties inside a loop we reference them enclosed by #{}, hence ere it will become: `.text-#{$x}`
> _try to solve the problem now_
## Spoiler Alert!
**Solution ahead!**
##  Basic Code Solution:
```css
$x: 1;
@while $x < 11 {
.text-#{$x} {
font-size: 5px * $x;
}
$x: $x + 1;
}
```
