Hey, niels.

You are very close. It looks like you are just missing the "t" at the end of parseInt(). If you make that change, your code should run just fine.

Also, you should not need to call the parseInt function on the numOfDivs variable, as it is already an Integer.

I hope that helps. Best of luck.

thank you so much. I'm driving myself nuts

No worries. I've spent hours trying to figure out problems with my code, only to find out I was missing a single curly bracket. Comes with the territory.

Happy coding!
