8,719 PointsI copied the code line for line from the video, but the questions are still not listed. What am I missing?
var questions = [
['How many states are in the United States?', 50],
['How many continents are there?', 7],
['How many legs does an insect have?', 6]
];
var correctAnswers = 0;
var question;
var answer;
var response;
var html;
var correct = [];
var wrong = [];
function print(message) {
var outputDiv = document.getElementById('output');
outputDiv.innerHTML = message;
}
function buildList( arr ) {
var listHTML = "<ol>"
for (var i = 0; i < arr.length ; i += 1) {
listHTML += "<li>" + arr[i] + "</li>";
}
listHTML = "</ol>";
return listHTML;
}
for (var i = 0; i < questions.length; i += 1) {
question = questions[i][0];
answer = questions[i][1];
response = prompt(question);
response = parseInt(response);
if (response === answer) {
correctAnswers += 1;
correct.push(question);
} else {
wrong.push(question);
}
}
html = "You got " + correctAnswers + " question(s) right.";
html += "<h2>You got these questions correct:</h2>";
html += buildList(correct);
html += "<h2>You got these questions incorrect:</h2>";
html += buildList(wrong);
print(html);

Instead of adding </ol>
string to the listHTML
variable , you have assigned it to listHTML
.
Here is the code :
var questions = [
['How many states are in the United States?', 50],
['How many continents are there?', 7],
['How many legs does an insect have?', 6]
];
var correctAnswers = 0;
var question;
var answer;
var response;
var html;
var correct = [];
var wrong = [];
function print(message) {
var outputDiv = document.getElementById('output');
outputDiv.innerHTML = message;
}
function buildList( arr ) {
var listHTML = "<ol>"
for (var i = 0; i < arr.length ; i += 1) {
listHTML += "<li>" + arr[i] + "</li>";
}
listHTML = "</ol>"; // it should be listHTML += "</ol>"
return listHTML;
}
for (var i = 0; i < questions.length; i += 1) {
question = questions[i][0];
answer = questions[i][1];
response = prompt(question);
response = parseInt(response);
if (response === answer) {
correctAnswers += 1;
correct.push(question);
} else {
wrong.push(question);
}
}
html = "You got " + correctAnswers + " question(s) right.";
html += "<h2>You got these questions correct:</h2>";
html += buildList(correct);
html += "<h2>You got these questions incorrect:</h2>";
html += buildList(wrong);
print(html);
Now , you are ready to go :)
