Given this function, write the code to call it: function warning() { alert('Warning, warning, warning!'); }
this is a question how you will call it?

function warning() {
alert('Warning, warning, warning!');
}
// This is how you call a function:
warning();
/*
Let's take the function call apart: warning();
+ warning is the name of the function. You have to tell javaScript which function you want to call.
+ () is an operator. This () operator is a function itself under the hood which does all the work of finding the function in memory and getting the function to execute it's coding.
+ ; is the semi-colon. Always use a semi-colon at the end to let javaScript know you are done with your statement. It is considered best coding practice.

warning();
You can leave the brackets empty in this case.

warning()
Leave out the semi-colon because that is already at the end of the line that you write in, other wise you would add that.
