problem with logic in for loop

[shahzaib1111]

#include<conio.h>
#include<stdio.h>

void main()
{
	int i=0,j;
	for(i=2;i<=5;i++)
	{
		printf("\ni am starting");
		for(j=i+3;j<i*3+2;j++);
		{
			printf("   %d",j);
		}
		printf("\nhello");
	}

	getch();
}

why after this line 7

for(j=i+3;j<i*3+2;j++);

value of j=8 but it has to be 5 i think :P, please help me with this logic

[Moschops]

for(j=i+3;j<i*3+2;j++);
is the same as

for(j=i+3;j<i*3+2;j++)
{  }

Remove the semi-colon on line 7


Also, void main() isn't C++ and conio.h is non-standard and you're learning wrong C++ from twenty years ago.
