Execute a javascript function with html button?

How would I execute this external javascript function with html? function wordGen() { var wordList = ["Array", "Function", "Boolean", "Null", "Undefined", "Number", "String", "Symbol", "Object"]; var rand = Math.floor(Math.random() * wordList.length); return wordList[rand]; }

Use the onclick atrribute of the <button> tag. One more thing to note is that the function returns a value and not actually print it on the screen..So I used console.log() function to show the value. Feel free to ask if you don't understand :) https://code.sololearn.com/WF8vBc4YamT4/?ref=app

If you are attending a Bootcamp I will assume that you are not using Code Playground to create a website. You will need to point to the external javascript file as an example- <script> src="something.js"</script> see links below for more examples and explanations https://www.w3schools.com/js/js_whereto.asp https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r--dRuIiV7A
