I'm getting: "you got undefined correct out of 3.you got NaN wrong out of 3." What is wrong with my code??

Question

How can post a photo of my code so its not a giant text blob like below??
function print(message) {
  document.write(message);
}
var questions = [
  ['How many states are in the United States?', 50],
  ['How many legs do insects have?', 6],
  ['How many continents are there?', 7]
];
var correctAnswers;
var wrongAnswers;
var answers;
var question;
var userResponse;
var html;
  for( var i = 0; i < questions.length; i += 1) {
   question = questions[i][0];
   answer = questions[i][1];
   userResponse = parseInt(prompt(question));   
  } if ( userResponse === answer ) {
    correctAnswers += 1;
  } else {
    wrongAnswers += 1;
  };
html = "you got " + correctAnswers + " correct out of 3."; 
html += "you got " + wrongAnswers + " wrong out of 3.";
print(html);

Howdy! 
There are some issues I found that should fix your issue when corrected.
Firstly, you should check if the answer is correct or wrong after each question, not at the end of the 'for' loop. You have to put that 'if' statement inside the loop. In your code, the 'for' loop ending curly brace is before the  'if' statement.
Secondly, you're incrementing two variables that have no initial value. You should assign 0 to correctAnswers and wrongAnswers when declaring them. The rest is just fine.
Good luck!
This piece of code is working for me:
```javascript
function print(message) { document.write(message); }
var questions = [ ['How many states are in the United States?', 50], ['How many legs do insects have?', 6], ['How many continents are there?', 7] ];
var correctAnswers=0; var wrongAnswers=0; var answers; var question; var userResponse; var html;
for( var i = 0; i < questions.length; i += 1) { 
    question = questions[i][0]; answer = questions[i][1]; userResponse = parseInt(prompt(question));
    if ( userResponse === answer ) { correctAnswers += 1; } else { wrongAnswers += 1; };
}
html = "you got " + correctAnswers + " correct out of 3."; html += "you got " + wrongAnswers + " wrong out of 3.";
print(html);
```
