JavaScript for Loop使浏览器崩溃

Question

This loop crashes the browser when run, but I can't see why - function getN is one function of three designed to factorise quadratic equations. I am sure it is the loop causing the problem, I have tested this and the browser only crashes when the for loop is present. Any help will be appreciated.

function getN(decP){
var a = document.getElementById("a-f").value;
var b = document.getElementById("b-f").value;
var c = document.getElementById("c-f").value;
var n_1 =0;
var n_2 =0;
var result = Math.pow(10, (decP*-1));
var a_c = a*c;
var neg_a_c = 0;
var pos_a_c = 0;
if(a_c<0){
    neg_a_c = a_c;
    pos_a_c = a_c*-1
}
else{
    pos_a_c = a_c;
    neg_a_c = a_c*-1;
}
for(x=neg_a_c;x<=pos_a_c;x+result){
    if(x!==0){
        if(x+(a_c/x)===b){
            var num1 = x;
            var num2 = a_c/x;
        }
    }
}
divideByCoefficient(num1, num2)
};

Answer 1

for(x=neg_a_c;x<=pos_a_c;x+result){
                          ^
                           `-----here

You likely meant x += result (or x = x + result ), not just x+result .

x+result never modifies x . So x always equals neg_a_c and the loop runs forever.
