JavaScript if else

Question

Why is there a error??

var height = parseFloat(readLine(), 10)
//your goes code here
if (height >= 2.45);
{
console.log ("new record!");
}
if else (height >= 2.44)
{
console.log ('not this time!');
}

Answer 1

var height = parseFloat(readLine(), 10)
//your goes code here
if (height > 2.45) {
console.log ('new record')
}
else if (height < 2.44) {
console.log ("not this time")
}

Good Luck

Answer 2

Remove the (height >= 2.44) part: You only want to know if someone beats the record. If not he/she must me smaller (else)

Answer 3

1. That else if{} not if else{}

2. remove semicolons on the end of if line

var height = parseFloat(readLine(), 10)
//your goes code here
if (height >= 2.45)
{
console.log ("new record!");
}
else if (height >= 2.44)
{
console.log ('not this time!');
}

Answer 4

From how I understand your code, I'd suggest to use only "else" on the second part (no "else if")

Answer 5

Thanks a lot!!

Answer 6

Im confused dont i need an if statement?

Answer 7

I don't know what the task is (I can't see the pro projects) but I think you need both:

if (condition) {
...
} else {
...
}

Answer 8

Another issue: If you read the task instruction again, you'll find that it needs to be

if (height > 2.45) ...

(Not >=)

Answer 9

var height = parseFloat(readLine(), 10)
//your goes code here
if (height > 2.45) {
console.log ('new record')
}
else if (height < 2.44) {
console.log ("not this time")
}

Answer 10

if(height < 2.45){
console.log("not this time")
} else {
console.log("new record")
}
