In Javascript Basics, Stage 4: Making Decisions with Conditional Statements
I've been trying several times to pass this challenge, but my code gets evaluated with "Bummer! Did you use === to compare the answer with the string 'JavaScript' like this: answer==='JavaScript" although my code is correct:
var answer = prompt('What is the best programming language?'); if (answer === 'Javascript') { alert('You are correct'); } else { alert ('You are wrong'); }
I've finished the Javascript basics course, but this challenge still won't work. Any advice?
Thank you.
var answer = prompt('What is the best programming language?');
if (answer === 'Javascript') {
alert('You are correct');
} else {
alert ('You are wrong');
}
