I can't understand how to increment a value of the table cells like: 1,2,3 etc?

My code:

$('#table').each(function(i){
    $(this).find('td:nth-child(1)').text(i);
});

Please, look at the full example

I think this is what you want:

var i = 1;
$('#table').find('td:nth-child(1)').each(function()
                                         {
                                             $(this).text(i++);
                                         });

Or simpler:

$('#table').find('td:nth-child(1)').each(function(i)
                                         {
                                             $(this).text(i + 1);
                                         });

I like your answer, but how to mark it?
Algorithm
if `function(i)` is used then no need to increment `i`

Good point, @andho.
