Javascript is concating or appending instead of adding

Question

javascript function:

//from javascript file1
   for(i=0;i<10;i++){
      setContent(i);
   }

//from javascript file2 where function is present
        setContent: function (content) {    
        var xy=0;
        xy = parseInt(xy + content);
        console.log(xy);

Above code is appending the content instead of adding

The code you provided doesn't do what you claim. I'm sure you're passing a string instead, but you should take time to review the code you provide instead of just assuming it represents the problem you're having. — , Dec 09 '17 at 14:41
Your sample code works as expected. Provide more details please. — Codemole, Dec 09 '17 at 14:50

do,

xy = xy + parseInt(content);

instead of,

xy = parseInt(xy + content);

as by doing this xy is concatenated first then is parsed to integer
