Learn Basic JavaScript by Building a Role Playing Game - Step 169

Tell us what’s happening: I am being asked to escape a string with a \n command however, no matter what syntax I use, I cannot pass this challenge.

Your code so far

WARNING

The challenge seed code and/or your solution exceeded the maximum length we can port over from the challenge.

You will need to take an additional step here so the code you wrote presents in an easy to read format.

Please copy/paste all the editor code showing in the challenge from where you just linked.

Step 169
Now you can write the logic to run in the loop. Inside your for loop, use the += operator to add to the end of text.innerText. Add the number at index i of the numbers array, using numbers[i]. Then add a new line, using the escape sequence you used earlier.

    numbers.push(Math.floor(Math.random() * 11));
  }
  text.innerText = "You picked " + guess + ". Here are the random numbers:\n";
  for (let i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
    text.innerText += numbers[i]\n;
  }
}

I believe it needs to be concatenated using a plus sign and quotes.

Thanks!

Instead of posting your full working solution, it is best to stay focused on answering the original poster’s question(s) and help guide them with hints and suggestions to solve their own issues with the challenge.

We are trying to cut back on the number of spoiler solutions found on the forum and instead focus on helping other campers with their questions and definitely not posting full working solutions.
