] var correctAnswers = 0; var question; var answer; var response; var html;

function print(message) { document.write(message); } for(var i = 0; i < questions.length; i +=1){ questions = questions[i][0]; answer = questions[i][1]; response = parseint(prompt(question));

Insects don't have 30 legs — there's the problem! :smile: Just kidding.... (well, not about the insects!)

:point_right: Actually, there's a few issues here:

  • you assign your question to a variable questions (with an "s") but you prompt using question (no "s")
  • JavaScript is case sensitive. You must spell parseInt with capital "I"
  • did you want to see the result? You accumulate correctAnswers but then don't use it
