function getRandomNumber(min_number, max_number, include_max_number = true){
// function stuff
}
You can change your function to:
function getRandomNumber(min_number, max_number, include_max_number){
// function stuff
}
You can call your function like:
alert(getRandomNumber(5,10, true)); // with max_number included
alert(getRandomNumber(5,10, false)); // without max_number included

3,223 PointsInstead of alert(getRandomNumber(5,10)); try document.write(getRandomNumber(5,10)); that will probably allow you to see if your syntax is correct. If you do feel like you are messing up always trust the Javascript Console as it will help you in all your syntax errors, or errors in general.
