How to sync variable with async callback in node.js

I have doubt in following code snippet.

for(var i=0; i<5; i++){
    http.request(option, function(res){
        console.log(i)
    });
}

This prints value of 'i' as 5, five times. Is there any way to make value of 'i' in sync with function(res) which can print 0,1,2,3,4

You have to give the variables the correct scope. Try something like this:

for(var i=0; i<5; i++){
    (function(key) {
        http.request(option, function(res){
            console.log(key)
        });
    })(i);
}
