Also, don't forgot when your pasting in code, don't forget to check to check out the Markdown Cheatsheet (look below an answer box and above the Post Answer button) to your code will be formatted correctly! :)

function pizza() { //your code }
note if this doesn't help press F12 to check the developer console on windows your can see where your code breaks there.
