Code Project 4 - prompt

Question

Why doesn't prompt work here, yet works just fine in my code bit inventory???

Answer 1

Yes you're right, because in the code project you are using nodejs, not the web! You cannot use prompt() in nodejs, instead you should install libraries like prompt, or readline-sync, which you cannot do such a thing here in Sololearn.

Well, what's the solution!? 🤔
I don't know!! 😐
No, I'm not kidding I really don't know what to do, well I solved that 2 years ago, so I can't remember how did I do that, Sololearn has changed from 2yrs ago til now, so I don't know what do 😄😄
But we can ask help from Lisa...

Answer 2

I think I recently reported the same issue to sololearn. Was it in Introduction to Javascript?

What happens when you click "Reset code" in the 3 dots menu?

Answer 3

How can we help you when you haven't posted your code!!?

Answer 4

Language?

Answer 5

Shapa, it is working properly, what do you want it to be like?

Answer 6

@Radin Masiha

This same code won't work in project 4 though, I keep getting errors.

Answer 7

When you press "reset" it just clears entire code

Answer 8

Shapa

node js doesn't have prompt function. It is a function of Javascript.

Answer 11

I've tried parseInt and many.

Still didn't work.

Answer 12

It is not because of parseInt, prompt is not supported as user input

Answer 13

Well, I guess there's no solving this.

Answer 14

Shapa, you are right, this is while it said the code to get the user input is already present. I think you should report this bug by sending a feedback to Sololearn, explaining your problem short and clearly.
Anyway, code projects aren't required to be solved; your code is correct, you have understood the concept (just note that you should parseInt your ans 😉), so continue learning.

GOOD LUCK.....
