Unexpected end of script

I am trying to run a similar version of the script, but I am getting an error "Unexpected end of script" - I think that my code is similar to the one in the video but I have to be making error somewhere :/ My script follows below:

var correctGuess = false; var randomNumber = Math.floor(Math.random() * 6 ) + 1; var guess = prompt('I am thinking of a number between 1 and 6. What is it?'); if (parseInt(guess) === randomNumber ) { correctGuess = true; } else if ( parseInt(guess) > randomNumber ) { var guessLess = prompt ("The number I was thinking of is lower."); if (parseInt(guessLess) === randomNumber) { correctGuess = true; }
else if (parseInt(guess) < randomNumber ) { var guessMore = prompt ("The number I was thinking of is higher."); if (parseInt(guessMore) === randomNumber) { correctGuess = true; } if ( correctGuess ) { document.write('<p>You guessed the number!</p>'); } else { document.write('<p>Sorry. The number was ' + randomNumber + '.</p>'); }

Hey Jan, you have a syntax error in your code because there're two curly brackets missing " } " for two of your if conditions, you can add }} . at the end of your code just to get out of this error, but you have to find the correct place in your for those curly brackets to end the if conditions correctly. you are the only one who know where the if condition should end :)
