This is my first time ever coding and I'm having some trouble. Here is my code so far (javascript)
var userName = prompt("Hi! What is your name?"); // The answer the user gives for this prompt will be used later in the program
var hoursWorked = prompt("How many hours have you worked this week?"); //The answer the user gives for this prompt will be multiplied by 15 to determine the amount that they will be paid
var pay = ("$" + hoursWorked * 15)
var hoursLeft = (40 - hoursWorked); //This equation determines how many hours of work the user has left to complete
if (hoursLeft < 0) {
alert("Uh oh! " + userName + "! That's too many hours!")
}; //If the user enters an amount of hours that is over 40 they will recieve an error message
if (hoursLeft === 0) {
alert("Congratulations, " + userName + "! You have completed all 40 hours of work!"); //If the user has completed 40 hours of work they will be given this message
alert(userName + ", your pay will be: " + pay)
};
if (hoursLeft => 0 && hoursLeft = < 39) {
alert(userName + ", you have " + hoursLeft + " more hours to work this week."); //If the user has completed <40 hours of work they will be given this message, along with how many hours they have left to complete
alert(userName + ", your pay so far is: " + pay)
};
if (hoursLeft > 40) {
alert(userName + "! That is not possible!")
} //If the user enters a negative amount of hours they will be given this messageMy problem is with this line "if (hoursLeft => 0 && hoursLeft =< 39 ){ "
How can I make it so if the hours are over 0 and less than 40 it will return the alerts? Thank you
The problem is you should use >= instead of => (this will be parsed as expression for arrow function) and use <= instead of =<.
<=Less than or equal operator.
>=Greater than or equal operator.
