yeap, all good, so far, only thing you have to understand, is what does the document.write function does, it is a way of expressing HTML content, from JavaScript.

read through, the link https://www.w3schools.com/jsref/met_doc_write.asp

once you have finished reading, you will be able to knock off the 3rd task, still on doubt, reach out to me.

Don't give up, almost there, only a very tiny bit left.
