Is it just my code or something is wrong with WorkSpace?

I am unable to open the javascript script for the random guessing numbers game

Either it is my code or it's Workspace being a little buggy. 

var randomNumber = Math.floor(Math.random() + 6) + 1;
var guess = prompt("Guess a number between 1 and 6.");
if ( parseInt(guess) === randomNumber ) {
  document.write('<p>Yep that is true!</p>');
} else {
  document.write('<p>Sorry, the number was ' + randomNumber '</p>');
}

Missing '+' at last line. Should be: document.write('<p>Sorry, the number was ' + randomNumber + '</p>'); And on first line should be * not + : var randomNumber = Math.floor(Math.random() * 6) + 1;

Also, you should multiply Math.random instead of adding to it. like this: 

  var randomNumber =  Math.floor(Math.random() * 6) + 1;
