It works but its wrong. It asks if I am using the ">" sign to compare the values.
var a = 10; var b = 20; var c = 30; if ( 'var a' > 'var b' ) { alert( 'a is greater than b' ); } else { alert( 'a is not greater than b' ); }
var a = 10;
var b = 20;
var c = 30;
if ( 'var a' > 'var b' ) {
alert( 'a is greater than b' );
} else {
alert( 'a is not greater than b' );
}

Front End Web Development Techdegree Graduate 33,271 Pointsyou are not comparing the variables a and b, but new strings 'var a' and 'var b'. the variables have already been declared with var so you don't need to use the var keyword again, just the variable name, a or b.
