230,688 PointsYou've got the correct code, but you also have some extra things that the challenge is not expecting. In particular:
- the instructions don't ask for an alert that says "Begin program"
- the instructions don't ask for a console.log that says 'I am Programming'
Just remove these extra items and you will pass the challenge.
