How do I display a variable rounded downward to the nearest integer.

did not work...temperature = 37.5; alert(Math.round(temperature)); alert(Math.floor(temperture));

script.js 
var temperature = 37.5;
alert(Math.round(temperature)); 
alert(Math.floor(temperture));

The "Math.floor" function does what you describe, but you misspelled "temperture" (instead of "temperature").

It's easier to learn when you're fresh, if you're tired it's a good time to take a break!
