Trying to work on objects and functions

Question

So I just got started with JS which is basically like C++ but its weak typing always leaves me wondering where I went wrong. I am having a problem with this code I tried after doing the objects lesson and it won't work. Any ideas?

"use strict";

function person(name, color, age) {
this.name = name;
this.color = color;
this.age = age;
}

function index() {
var p1 = person("Jack", "yellow", 19);

alert("This is just the test " + p1.name);
}

Answer 1

function person(name, color, age) {
this.name = name;
this.color = color;
this.age = age;
}

function index() {
var p1 = new person("Jack", "yellow", 19);

alert("This is just the test " + p1.name);
}

index();

/*
*
* 1. You did not call the index( ) function
*
* 2. An object from a constructor,
* must be created with
* the "new" keyword.
*
*/

Answer 2
