My solution...differences...good or bad?

I defined name,track,achievements and points first because looks more logical. Second, I used <br> instead <p>. Any difference?

P.S. I still did'n't get the point of having : ............................function print(message) { document.write(message);.....................when we use print(message) at the end......I just don't have it clear at all

While you can always override it with CSS, by default the <br> element only goes to a new line, but the <p> element provides padding and provides a "block" mode container for its content. The end results may look similar, depending on the context, but in other cases (particularly when additional CSS styling is used) the differences will be apparent.

And the code that begins with the word "function" is what defines what the "print" that is used later will do, and is necessary. to make it work.
