/* we mad correctAnswers to count how many point the player will get */

let correctAnswers =0;

if (earth.toUpperCase === "EARTH") { correctAnswers +=1; } if (water.toUpperCase === "WATER") { correctAnswers +=1; } if (degree.toUpperCase === "DEGREE") { correctAnswers +=1; } if (blue.toUpperCase === "BLUE") { correctAnswers +=1; } if (white.toUpperCase === "WHITE") { correctAnswers +=1; }

When posting code, always use Markdown formatting to preserve the code's appearance and retain special symbols. And for workspace projects, an even better way to share is to make a snapshot of your workspace and post the link to it here.

Now here's a couple of hints:

  • when calling a function or method, you must put parentheses after the name even if there are no arguments
  • an "else" does not need (and won't allow) a conditional expression
