8,188 Pointshow to verify if a number is between 1 and 5
I have to verify if a number is between 1 and 5 (like if it was a dice). I'll be using a window.prompt... this is my code... what is wrong with it?
var resultatDe = parseInt(window.prompt("Entrer le résultat de dé obtenu")); if (resultatDe <= "5" && resultatDe >= "1") { window.alert = ("Vous avez obtenu un "+resultatDe); }else if (resultatDe == "6") { window.alert = ("Bravo, vous avez obtenu un "+resultatDe); }else { window.alert = ("Résultat du dé invalide"); }
thanks!

4,315 PointsHi Marie - you have a simple error - your 'if' statement is working on if your variable is greater equal to a string (as in "1") but instead it needs to be an integer as your are parsing the input from the user to a whole number.
Basically remove the quote marks (") around the numbers in your if statement
var resultatDe = parseInt(window.prompt("Entrer le résultat de dé obtenu"));
if (resultatDe <= 5 && resultatDe >= 1)
{
window.alert = ("Vous avez obtenu un "+resultatDe);
}
else if (resultatDe == 6) {
window.alert = ("Bravo, vous avez obtenu un "+resultatDe);
}
else
{
window.alert = ("Résultat du dé invalide");
}
