var questions = [
['What is the capital of Peru?','lima'],
['What is the capital of Argentina?','buenos aires'],
['What is the capital of Bolivia?','la paz']
]
var correctAnswers = 0;
var question;
var answer;
var response;
var correct = [];
var incorrect = [];
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).toLowerCase();
if (response === answer) {
correctAnswers +=1;
correct.push(question);
} else {
incorrect.push(question);
}
}
html = "You got " + correctAnswers + " question(s) right.";
html += '<h2>You got the following questions correct:</h2>';
html += buildList(correct);
html += '<h2>You got the following questions incorrect:</h2>';
html += buildList(incorrect);
print(html);

Courses Plus Student 15,815 PointsCarlo,
I think you're having trouble with your buildList
function, specifically this bit:
listHTML = '<li>' + arr[i] + '</li>';
Instead of adding a list item to the listHTML
variable, you're replacing the entire variable. I think you're just missing a +
before the =
, the way you've written it elsewhere in your code.
Hope that helps!
