Basic JavaScript - Introducing Else If Statements

JavaScript
1

The console shows a syntax error in the line

testElseIf(7);

which I am not supposed to modify. It is saying the problem is the semi colon ; - this can’t be true. I can’t see anything wrong in my else if statements.

Grateful for any help.

Your code so far

function testElseIf(val) {
  if (val > 10) {
    return "Greater than 10";
  }

  else if (val < 5) {
    return "Smaller than 5";
  } else {

  return "Between 5 and 10";
}

testElseIf(7);

Please Tell us what’s happening in your own words.

Learning to describe problems is hard, but it is an important part of learning how to code.

Also, the more you say, the more we can help!

it looks like you’re missing a curly brace } at the end to close the function .

Thanks very much - could not see that for looking!
