How do I skip a value using the while loop?

    <!DOCTYPE html>

        <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">

        <h1 id="string"></h1>
        <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
              let w = 10;
              while (w <= 15) {
                console.log(w);

                if (w == 12) {
                  continue;
                }
                w++;
              }        
        </script>
    </body>
    </html>

This creates an infinite loop, But I'm trying to skip 12, if I remove the increment it doesn't display at all.

Solution

You need to increase w value before you do the skipping, one method is to do it inside the while condition:

let w = 9;
while(++w<=15){

    if(w==12){
        continue;
    }
    console.log(w)
};
