Added whitespaces
It's really just a matter of taste, I think it's more consistent and legible to use whitespaces before and after the operators.

The first value is `i=1`, because `++i` first increments `i` and then returns the new value. So the first comparison is `1 < 5` and the `alert` shows `1`.

Finally, `i=4` is incremented to `5`, the comparison `while(5 < 5)` fails, and the loop stops. So `5` is not shown.

The first value is again `i=1`. The postfix form of `i++` increments `i` and then returns the *old* value, so the comparison `i++ < 5` will use `i=0` (contrary to `++i < 5`).

But the `alert` call is separate. It's another statement which executes after the increment and the comparison. So it gets the current `i=1`.

Let's stop on `i=4`. The prefix form `++i` would increment it and use `5` in the comparison. But here we have the postfix form `i++`. So it increments `i` to `5`, but returns the old value. Hence the comparison is actually `while(4 < 5)` -- true, and the control goes on to `alert`.
