I have two questions: How can I alert the user directly after they answer one question rather than alert them three times after they answer all three questions? Is there a way for me to keep track of how often the user answers correctly, and give the user a total score at the end of the quiz? don't need to

How to alert user directly after prompt rather than after they answer all three prompts?

I have two questions:

How can I alert the user directly after they answer one question rather than alert them three times after they answer all three questions?
Is there a way for me to keep track of how often the user answers correctly, and give the user a total score at the end of the quiz? don’t need to give me exact code, just a little nudge for where I should be looking 🙂

See below for code:

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html>

<p id="target"></p>

<button id="buttonclick" type="submit">Click me</button>

<script>

var questionOne = prompt("What is 2+2?", '');
var questionTwo = prompt("What is 1+1?", '');
var questionThree = prompt("What is 3+3?",'');

if (questionOne = 4) {
    alert("You got the question right!");
} else {
    alert("You got the question wrong!");
}

if (questionTwo = 2) {
    alert("You got the question right!");
} else {
    alert("You got the question wrong!");
}

if (questionThree = 6) {
    alert("You got the question right!");
} else {
    alert("You got the question wrong!");
}

</script>

</html>

Answer

if (prompt("What is 2+2?", '') == 4) {
    alert("You got the question right!");
} else {
    alert("You got the question wrong!");
}

if (prompt("What is 1+1?", '') == 2) {
    alert("You got the question right!");
} else {
    alert("You got the question wrong!");
}

if (prompt("What is 3+3?",'') == 6) {
    alert("You got the question right!");
} else {
    alert("You got the question wrong!");
}

JavaScript
 
if (prompt("What is 2+2?", '') == 4) {
    alert("You got the question right!");
} else {
    alert("You got the question wrong!");
}
​
if (prompt("What is 1+1?", '') == 2) {
    alert("You got the question right!");
} else {
    alert("You got the question wrong!");
}
​
if (prompt("What is 3+3?",'') == 6) {
    alert("You got the question right!");
} else {
    alert("You got the question wrong!");
}

Another option is to create a function that creates the numbers for you, so u don’t have to copy-paste the prompts.

const ask = () => {
    const n1 = Math.ceil(Math.random() * 100);
  const n2 = Math.ceil(Math.random() * 100);
  if (prompt(`What is ${n1}+${n2}?`, '') == n1 + n2) {
    alert("You got the question right!");
  } else {
      alert("You got the question wrong!");
  }
}

ask();
ask();
ask();

JavaScript
 
const ask = () => {
    const n1 = Math.ceil(Math.random() * 100);
  const n2 = Math.ceil(Math.random() * 100);
  if (prompt(`What is ${n1}+${n2}?`, '') == n1 + n2) {
    alert("You got the question right!");
  } else {
      alert("You got the question wrong!");
  }
}
​
ask();
ask();
ask();
