JavaScript Treehouse Club - MASH MASH - JavaScript The Structure of Functions - Part 2 of 3

closing characters

Add the closing character (hint: it's kind of like a period in a sentence) at the end of the body of the function.

script.js
function random_age(age) {
  Math.floor(Math.random() * age)
}
index.html

In the challenge I took they dont have all this code you listed. Make sure you start with the original code they give you & put a semicolon at the end of the statement in the function & it worked for me.

Its in the script.js file, not the index.html file. The script.js file should look like this:

function random_age(age) {
  Math.floor(Math.random() * age);
}
