While playing the 'The Running Man' show, I have to survive 9007199254740992 times but all the gamers have been killed even though they have been playing bravely, could anyone help solve the challenge?
The following code could make crash your browser!! Be careful!!
var endTheGame = 9007199254740992,
startTheGame = endTheGame - 100,
count = 0,
index,
result;
for ( index = startTheGame; index count++;
}
result = count;

9007199254740992 is the maximum number that Javascript can handle then it is unable to manage due to the overflow issue, then the most easy way to do it is decrement the number in one to allow Javascript to work with it as shown below.
var endTheGame = 9007199254740991,
startTheGame = endTheGame - 100,
count = 0,
result,
index;
for ( index = startTheGame; index <= endTheGame; index++ ) {
count++;
}
result = count;
