alert ("I am programming"); does not work.

I believe that I'm responding correctly to this question but it is still showing as an incorrect response.

Code below.

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>JavaScript Basics</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <script src="app.js"> </script>
  </body>
</html>
app.js 
console.log ("Begin program");
alert("I am programming");

Try removing the space between log and ("Begin program")
