What is the closing character and where is it placed

Where is the closing character placed and what is it, (/body)?

Add the closing character (hint: it's kind of like a period in a sentence) at the end of the body of the function.

script.js
function random_age(age) {
  Math.floor(Math.random() * age)
}
index.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Futuristic MASH</title>
    <link href="normalize.css" rel="stylesheet">
    <link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet">
  </head>
  <body>
    <h1 class="logo"><img src="img/mash-logo.svg" /></h1>
    <p class="instructions">Fill in the blanks and your future will be foretold.</p>
    <form action="" method="post" id="mash">
      <div class="choice-bucket">
        <h4 class="highlight">What's your future pet?</h4>
        <input name="pet[]">
        <input name="pet[]">
        <input name="pet[]">
        <input name="pet[]">
      </div>
      <input type="submit" value="Tell my fortune">
    </form>

    <script src="script.js"></script>

  </body>
</html>

Hey Elijah Chand I think the are referring to the semicolon, which looks like ;

In your script.js file, the semicolon would go at the end of: Math.floor(Math.random() * age);

The end result would look like this:

function random_age(age) {
  Math.floor(Math.random() * age);
}
