1,004 PointsIs my code correct?
Just curious if my code is correct.
Please check out my work. I'm curious if I had made any mistakes.
I haven't checked out any other discussion questions as I didn't want to see other codes to make myself want to change my code.
Here is my snapshot. https://w.trhou.se/ljc6suqtj1

", you could take advantage of that to make the final calculation a bit more concise:
var daysAlive = secondsPerDay * daysPerWeek * weeksPerYear * yearsAlive;
Also, while technically optional, it's good practice to always end a statement with a semicolon.

I have been alive for more than ' + socondsAlive + ' seconds. '); //How about this guys? Am I correct? Please someone check it out ?

231,271 PointsIt looks like your final calculation is missing some factors.
But always create a fresh question instead of posting a question as an "answer" to another one.

1,004 PointsOh yeah, you're completely right. I totally disregarded secondsPerDay. And yes I ended up looking at my post right after I posted it and noticed I didn't have a semicolon. Luckily someone pointed it out. :)
