How does my code look?

var secondsPerMin = 60; var minsPerHour = 60; var hoursPerDay = 24; var daysPerWeek = 7; var weeksPerYear = 52; var secondsPerDay = secondsPerMin * minsPerHour * hoursPerDay; document.write('There are ' + secondsPerDay +' seconds in a day, and '); var secondsPerYear = secondsPerDay * 365; var yearsAlive = secondsPerYear * prompt("How old are you?"); document.write("I've been alive for " + yearsAlive + " seconds.");

Pretty good, however next time you might want to show it to us without the minifying effect. like this;

var secondsPerMin = 60; 
var minsPerHour = 60; 
var hoursPerDay = 24; 
var daysPerWeek = 7;
var weeksPerYear = 52; 
var secondsPerDay = secondsPerMin * (minsPerHour * hoursPerDay); 
document.write('There are ' + secondsPerDay +' seconds in a day, and '); 
var secondsPerYear = secondsPerDay * 365; 
var yearsAlive = secondsPerYear * prompt("How old are you?"); 
document.write("I've been alive for " + yearsAlive + " seconds.");

I appreciate the response. I didn't notice that it would do that when I posted it.
