Explaining the loop syntax to a friend

for (var i = 0; i < 9; i++) {
  // var i = 0; -> initial value of the loop statement : i === 0
  // executed before the first iteration

  //  i < 9 -> condition that must be true for the loop to proceed : check if i is less than 9
    // if it is not less than 9, end the loop
    // if it is less than 9, do the thing inside the loop :
      console.log('The current value of i is :', i)

  // i++ -> post statement (executed at the end of an iteration) : increment i by 1 (i++ is the same as i + 1)
}

// Expected result :
// The current value of i is : 0
// The current value of i is : 1
// The current value of i is : 2
// The current value of i is : 3
// The current value of i is : 4
// The current value of i is : 5
// The current value of i is : 6
// The current value of i is : 7
// The current value of i is : 8
