When trying to compare these two var "a" and var "b" I'm getting errors. What needs to change about my code to correct it?
var a = 10;
var b = 20;
var c = 30;
if (a > b){
alert("a is greater than b!");
} else
alert("a is not greater than b!");
}

You are missing a opening curly brace after else.
The phrase "a is greater than b" doesn't include a exclamation point.
var a = 10;
var b = 20;
var c = 30;
if (a > b) {
alert("a is greater than b");
} else {
alert("a is not greater than b");
}
