A `for` loop with a stop condition that can never be reached, such as one with a counter that moves in the wrong direction, will run infinitely. While there are occasions when an infinite loop is intended, the convention is to construct such loops as `while` loops. More typically, an infinite `for` loop is a bug.

## Noncompliant Code Example

    for (var i = 0; i < strings.length; i--) { // Noncompliant;
      //...
    }

## Compliant Solution

    for (var i = 0; i < strings.length; i++) {
      //...
    }
