Code doesn't work on Opera but does work on Firefox. What would cause this since this is basic Javascript?

var upper = 10000;
var randomNumber = getRandomNumber(upper);
var guess;
var attempts = 0;

function getRandomNumber(upper) {
  return Math.floor( Math.random() * upper ) + 1;
}

while(guess !== randomNumber){
  guess = getRandomNumber(upper);
  attempts += 1;
}

  document.write("<p>The random number was : " + randomNumber + "</p>");
  document.write("<p>It took the computer" + attempts + "attempts</p>");

For code formatting, use 3 backticks (```) instead of apostrophes ('''), and on a separate line.
