What step am I missing to print the var player Jasmine using the document.write() function? I have var player=Jasmine.

What is my next step or that I'm missing in the string? document.write("Jasmine");

app.js 
var player= "Jasmine"
var 
document.write( "Jasmine");
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
  <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
  <title>JavaScript Basics</title>
</head>
<body>
<script src="app.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

You are close! You just need to write the variable since you assigned the string "Jasmine" to the variable player.

var player = "Jasmine";

document.write(player);
