Open an alert dialog a second time and display the temperature variable rounded downward to the nearest integer (hint: down is toward the “floor".)
My solution:
var temperature = 37.5 alert(Math.round(temperature)); alert(Math.round(temperature - .1));
var temperature = 37.5
alert(Math.round(temperature));
alert(Math.round(temperature - .1));

4,051 PointsHey Milber, you should use Math.floor method (check how it works on Mozilla Developer Network); forget about Math.round function in this case ;)
