Angular doesn't return inner nested for loops

Question

I'm trying to make a for loop script that creates orders using Angular and adds it to a webpage. I'm having trouble with this certain for loops because when I use console.log(), it only outputs the outer loops and not the inner loops. And I need to pass the variable order to another function so that's why I need the order to have the correct data.

var order;
    for (var i = 1; i <= 52; i += 1) {
        if (i <= 32) {
            order = "500200000" + i;
            element(by.model("order")).clear().sendKeys(order);
            if (i >= 10) {
                order = "50020000" + i;
                element(by.model("order")).clear().sendKeys(order);
            }
        } else if (i == 33) {
            for (var a = 1; a <= 30; a += 1) {
                order = "69200000" + a;
                element(by.model("order")).clear().sendKeys(order);
                if (i >= 10) {
                    order = "6920000" + a;
                    element(by.model("order")).clear().sendKeys(order);
                }
            }
            order = "5002000033";
            element(by.model("order")).clear().sendKeys(order);
        }
        console.log(order);
 };

Results:

It repeats the last outer loop value and doesn't output the inner one. I'm still quite new to Javascript so I need some insight and a solution and maybe simple way of doing this? Thank you!

write the console.log inside the inner loop body to view the result of the inner loop

following should work:

var order;
for (var i = 1; i <= 52; i += 1) {
    if (i <= 32) {
        order = "500200000" + i;
        element(by.model("order")).clear().sendKeys(order);
        if (i >= 10) {
            order = "50020000" + i;
            element(by.model("order")).clear().sendKeys(order);
        }
    } else if (i == 33) {
        for (var a = 1; a <= 30; a += 1) {
            order = "69200000" + a;
            element(by.model("order")).clear().sendKeys(order);
            if (i >= 10) {
                order = "6920000" + a;
                element(by.model("order")).clear().sendKeys(order);
            }



            // ** add here a console.log output e.g.**
            console.log('inner loop: ' + order);



        }
        order = "5002000033";
        element(by.model("order")).clear().sendKeys(order);
    }
    console.log(order);
};
