# --description--
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The `@for` directive adds styles in a loop, very similar to a `for` loop in JavaScript.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
`@for` is used in two ways: "start through end" or "start to end". The main difference is that the "start **to** end" *excludes* the end number as part of the count, and "start **through** end" *includes* the end number as part of the count.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Here's a start **through** end example:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```scss
 | 
						|
@for $i from 1 through 12 {
 | 
						|
  .col-#{$i} { width: 100%/12 * $i; }
 | 
						|
}
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The `#{$i}` part is the syntax to combine a variable (`i`) with text to make a string. When the Sass file is converted to CSS, it looks like this:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```scss
 | 
						|
.col-1 {
 | 
						|
  width: 8.33333%;
 | 
						|
}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.col-2 {
 | 
						|
  width: 16.66667%;
 | 
						|
}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
...
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.col-12 {
 | 
						|
  width: 100%;
 | 
						|
}
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This is a powerful way to create a grid layout. Now you have twelve options for column widths available as CSS classes.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
# --instructions--
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Write a `@for` directive that takes a variable `$j` that goes from 1 **to** 6.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
It should create 5 classes called `.text-1` to `.text-5` where each has a `font-size` set to 15px multiplied by the index.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
# --hints--
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Your code should use the `@for` directive.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
assert(code.match(/@for /g));
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Your `.text-1` class should have a `font-size` of 15px.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
assert($('.text-1').css('font-size') == '15px');
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Your `.text-2` class should have a `font-size` of 30px.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
assert($('.text-2').css('font-size') == '30px');
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Your `.text-3` class should have a `font-size` of 45px.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
assert($('.text-3').css('font-size') == '45px');
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Your `.text-4` class should have a `font-size` of 60px.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
assert($('.text-4').css('font-size') == '60px');
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Your `.text-5` class should have a `font-size` of 75px.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
assert($('.text-5').css('font-size') == '75px');
 | 
						|
```
