trying to display message to user after prompts and between for loop

var a = prompt("Input for smallest account:");

var b = prompt("Input for largest account:");

var inca = prompt("Increment for account a:");

var incb = prompt("Increment for account b:");

var num1 = parseInt(a);

var num2 = parseInt(b);

var num3 = parseInt(inca);

var num4 = parseInt(incb);


for (var i = 1; num1 !== num2; i ++) {

num1 += num3;

num2 += num4;

document.write("Day: " + i, "   Account A: " + num1, "   Account B: " + num2, "<br>");
}

How would I display a message to user saying accounts won’t be equal if num4 is greater than num3 and therefore will not run the for loop?

This is basic javascript. I'd even say, basic programming:

if (num4 > num3) {
  alert('your-error-message-here');
} else for (var i = 1; num1 !== num2; i ++) {
  num1 += num3;
  num2 += num4;
  document.write("Day: " + i, "   Account A: " + num1, "   Account B: " + num2, "<br>");
}
