On line 2, you initialize a variable named "questionRight" (singular), but later in the code you refer to "questionsRight" (plural). You can use either name, but it must be consistent throughout the program.

Also, when posting code, always use the instructions for code formatting in the Markdown Cheatsheet pop-up below the "Add an Answer" area. :arrow_heading_down:   Or watch this video on code formatting.
