Anyone care to help me get this code running correctly? Just simple if/else statements Javascript. I have tried attaching a "do {" before each of the next questions, but I couldn't get that to work. It keeps saying that "Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected end of input".
alert("Welcome to the 'Guess that Celebrities Age' Game! Let's see how many out of 5 you
can guess right.")
let guess = 0;
let guess1 = 0;
let guess2 = 0;
let guess3 = 0;
let guess4 = 0;
let guess5 = 0;
let winsCounter = 0;
let losesCounter = 0;
do {
guess = prompt("How old is Cher?");
if (guess == 75) {
alert("Correct! Cher is 75 years old. You guessed the number in tries.");
winsCounter ;
}
else {
alert("Wrong! Sorry, better luck next time.");
losesCounter ;
}
guess2 = prompt("How old is Elton John?");
if (guess2 == 74) {
alert("Correct! Elton John is 74 years old. You guessed the number in tries.");
winsCounter ;
}
else {
alert("Wrong! Sorry, better luck next time.");
losesCounter ;
}
guess3 = prompt("How old is Doja Cat?");
if (guess3 == 26) {
alert("Correct! Doja Cat is 26 years old. You guessed the number in tries.");
winsCounter ;
}
else {
alert("Wrong! Sorry, better luck next time.");
losesCounter ;
}
guess4 = prompt("How old is Christina Ricci?");
if (guess4 == 42) {
alert("Correct! Christina Ricci is 42 years old. You guessed the number in tries.");
winsCounter ;
}
else {
alert("Wrong! Sorry, better luck next time.");
losesCounter ;
}
guess5 = prompt("How old is Seth Rogan?");
if (guess5 == 39) {
alert("Correct! Seth Rogan is 39 years old. You guessed the number in tries.");
winsCounter ;
}
else {
alert("Wrong! Sorry, better luck next time.");
losesCounter ;
}
}
CodePudding user response:
Your do
statement is incorrect. It needs the while
keyword at the end.
So, you can change your code to the template below to get it working.
let i = 0;
do {
console.log(i);
i ;
} while (i < 5)
Basically, after the do
keyword, you can add your code in the curly braces.
However, at the end of the curly braces (}), you can then add the while
keyword, and a boolean condition in the brackets (parentheses).
Edit: Here is the documentation for do...while
.
