Literally can't get this.

I've been okay up until this point? Think I might need some sleep.

script.js 
var secret = prompt("What is the secret password?");
while ( secret !== "sesame" ) {
  secret = prompt("What is the secret password?");    
}
document.write("You know the secret password. Welcome.");

For this exercise, your restructuring the code so it's in a do/while loop, move the while to the end, and remove the first prompt:

var secret;
do {
  secret = prompt("What is the secret password?");    
} while ( secret !== "sesame" );
document.write("You know the secret password. Welcome.");
