return report;

while(true){ //asking for student name or quiting program
ask = prompt('Please type a student name or type "QUIT" to exit the program').toLowerCase();
if(ask === null || ask === 'quit'){
break; //quit program

for(var i = 0 ; i < students.length; i+=1){
student = students[i];
if(ask === student.name.toLowerCase()){ //if user is in database
