Ok got all that done. Think I'm loosing it with this stuff after each lesson. This is how to log the length of the word right?

You're close. The problem is with line 3. Again, think about the colours. You need to set the value of myJob to the string "Computers".

I should say though, while they may seem useless because the computer doesn't read them, it is very much worth your while using comments that are as descriptive as they can be. They don't cost anything except a moment of time, and it will help you when you or someone else has to come back and read your code some time in the future.

If/then statements again. I don't see what's wrong with the last line.

Funny how people get all this fancy stuff sorted out, but then forget basic first grade arithmetic.
What is 2 + 2 ?

[turbow5]

I wanted a false to be first this time. Does it always have to be true first then false?

[Ent]

How do you expect the computer to know that you wanted it to do the first thing if it were false?
Yes, you have to write the true section first.

If someone said "If you have a ticket stand in line A, otherwise stand in line B", that would clearly mean that people who do have tickets take the first option, and people without tickets take the second option. It's exactly the same in this script.

I did not log the correct string to the console... This one stopped me in my tracks. I thought you suppsoe to log them both?

Failed to upload image.

I can't see what's wrong there. Sorry.

Don't know Turbo. I just tried it in codeacademy with no problems. Here's what I did:

if(2+2 > 4)
{
    console.log("test");
}
else
{
    console.log("I finished my first course!");
}

Maybe you have an extra space somewhere? I tried to repeat your error and can't. Regardless, I wouldn't sweat over this...move forward.

[turbow5]

I couldn't get it either, I had to copy and paste yours. Am I done with this? there's no next section. If I am done can I start making programs/mods/whatever else?

[ckphilli]

No, that was just the intro. There are several other JavaScript tutorials on that site.

[turbow5]

Yeah after you replied I got a email for a new course.

[turbow5]

I'm multitasking to much to look this up at the moment, sorry but when do threads usually close down from no responses?

[turbow5]

Never mind I found it. But for the looping part of JavaScript is this how you loop?
