Tell us what’s happening:

I have tried to call the if function inside the if else function and it keeps rejecting my code. I do not understand where I got it wrong. I need help yet again…

Your code so far

<!-- file: index.html -->


/* file: styles.css */


/* file: script.js */
// User Editable Region

function attack() {
  text.innerText = "The " + monsters[fighting].name + " attacks.";
  text.innerText += " You attack it with your " + weapons[currentWeaponIndex].name + ".";
  health -= monsters[fighting].level;
  monsterHealth -= weapons[currentWeaponIndex].power + Math.floor(Math.random() * xp) + 1;
  healthText.innerText = health;
  monsterHealthText.innerText = monsterHealth;
  if (health <= 0) {
    lose();
  } else if (monsterHealth <= 0) {
    if (fighting === 2) {
      function winGame();
    } else (){
      defeatMonster();
    }
  }
}

SyntaxError
as else does not take any condition, you can’t use the round parenthesis, remove them

hey there!
also the function word ir reserved for declaring a new function. in order to call a function you have already declared, just write the function name with the parentheses.
