Code does not work in workspace.

Code is tested valid and working yet does not work in the workspace.

var q =["what is 2+2", "how many letters in red", "What color is the sky", "are hobos real?", "what is 3+3"],
    a =[4, 3, "blue", "yes", 6];

var correctAnswers=0;

for(var i=0; i<q.length ;i++){
  if(prompt(q[i])== a[i]){
    correctAnswers++;
  }
}
console.log(correctAnswers);
switch(correctAnswers){
    case 5:
      alert("You win the gold crown");
      break;
    case 4:
    case 3:
      alert("You win the silver crown");
      break;
    case 2:
    case 1:
      alert("You win the bronze crown");
      break;
    default:
      alert("You are Crownless!");

I copied your code straight into a js file on one of my workspaces and it worked just fine. Could you share some more details of how your integrating it into your page, are you getting any errors, can you provide a share link to your workspace?

Sometimes it happens. Just try to reboot your browser. In my case it helped.

It works for me. I pasted your code into the workspace (a new one) provided for the video. I tried with Chrome Canary 42.0.2291.1 and Firefox 35.

Are you getting any errors in the console or what exactly is happening (or not) for you?
