I'm thinking that since most modern browsers execute a loop, then print to a window ... we could somehow use console.log instead of document.write to satisfy the browser's need to print a result, then store that as a variable ... no?

But don't spend much time on this, you'll soon learn other ways to perform user interaction that use page elements designed for the purpose.
