                    <p>
                        JavaScript is a cross-platform, object-oriented scripting language.
                        It is a small and lightweight language. Inside a host environment
                        (for example, a web browser), JavaScript can be connected to the
                        objects of its environment to provide programmatic control over
                        them.
                    </p>
                    <p>
                        JavaScript contains a standard library of objects, such as Array,
                        Date, and Math, and a core set of language elements such as
                        operators, control structures, and statements. Core JavaScript can
                        be extended for a variety of purposes by supplementing it with
                        additional objects; for example:
                    </p>
                    <ul>
                        <li>
                            <::marker></::marker>
                            Client-side JavaScript extends the core language by supplying
                            objects to control a browser and its Document Object Model (DOM).
                            For example, client-side extensions allow an application to place
                            elements on an HTML form and respond to user events such as mouse
                            clicks, form input, and page navigation.
                        </li>
                        <li>
                            <::marker></::marker>
                            Server-side JavaScript extends the core language by supplying
                            objects relevant to running JavaScript on a server. For example,
                            server-side extensions allow an application to communicate with a
                            database, provide continuity of information from one invocation to
                            another of the application, or perform file manipulations on a
                            server.

                    <p>
                        JavaScript and Java are similar in some ways but fundamentally different in some others. The
                        JavaScript language resembles Java but does not have Java's static typing and strong type
                        checking.
                        JavaScript follows most Java expression syntax, naming conventions
                        and basic control-flow constructs which was the reason why it was renamed from LiveScript to
                        JavaScript.
                    </p>
                    <p>
                        In contrast to Java's compile-time system of classes built by declarations, JavaScript supports
                        a
                        runtime system based on a small number of data types representing numeric, Boolean, and string
                        values. JavaScript has a prototype-based object model instead
                        of the more common class-based object model. The prototype-based model provides dynamic
                        inheritance;
                        that is, what is inherited can vary for individual objects. JavaScript also supports functions
                        without any special declarative requirements.
                        Functions can be properties of objects, executing as loosely typed methods.
                    </p>
                    <p>
                        JavaScript is a very free-form language compared to Java. You do not have to declare all
                        variables,
                        classes, and methods. You do not have to be concerned with whether methods are public, private,
                        or
                        protected, and you do not have to implement interfaces.
                        Variables, parameters, and function return types are not explicitly typed.

                    To get started with writing JavaScript, open the Scratchpad and write your first "Hello world"
                    JavaScript code:
                    <code>function greetMe(yourName) { alert("Hello " + yourName); }
                greetMe("World");
              </code> Select the code in the pad and hit Ctrl+R to watch it unfold in your browser!

            <section class="main-section" id="Variables">
                <header>Variables</header>
                <p>
                    You use variables as symbolic names for values in your application. The names of variables, called
                    identifiers, conform to certain rules.
                </p>
                <p>
                    A JavaScript identifier must start with a letter, underscore (_), or dollar sign ($); subsequent
                    characters can also be digits (0-9). Because JavaScript is case sensitive, letters include the
                    characters "A" through "Z" (uppercase) and the characters "a"
                    through "z" (lowercase).
                </p>
                <p>
                    You can use ISO 8859-1 or Unicode letters such as å and ü in identifiers. You can also use the
                    Unicode
                    escape sequences as characters in identifiers. Some examples of legal names are Number_hits, temp99,
                    and
                    _name.

                <article>
                    You can declare a variable in three ways:
                    <p>
                        With the keyword var. For example, <code>var x = 42.</code> This syntax can be used to declare
                        both local and global variables.
                    </p>
                    <p>
                        By simply assigning it a value. For example,
                        <code>x = 42.</code> This always declares a global variable. It generates a strict JavaScript
                        warning. You shouldn't use this variant.
                    </p>
                    <p>
                        With the keyword let. For example,<code> let y = 13.</code> This syntax can be used to declare a
                        block scope local variable. See Variable scope below.
                    </p>
                </article>

                    <p>
                        When you declare a variable outside of any function, it is called a global variable, because it
                        is
                        available to any other code in the current document. When you declare a variable within a
                        function,
                        it is called a local variable, because it is available
                        only within that function.
                    </p>
                    <p>
                        JavaScript before ECMAScript 2015 does not have block statement scope; rather, a variable
                        declared
                        within a block is local to the function (or global scope) that the block resides within. For
                        example
                        the following code will log 5, because the scope of
                        x is the function (or global context) within which x is declared, not the block, which in this
                        case
                        is an if statement.
                    </p>
                    <code>if (true) { var x = 5; } console.log(x); // 5</code>
                    <p>
                        This behavior changes, when using the let declaration introduced in ECMAScript 2015.
                    </p>

                    <code>if (true) { let y = 5; } console.log(y); // ReferenceError: y is
                        not defined</code>

                    <p>
                        Global variables are in fact properties of the global object. In web pages the global object is
                        window, so you can set and access global variables using the window.variable syntax.
                    </p>
                    <p>
                        Consequently, you can access global variables declared in one window or frame from another
                        window or
                        frame by specifying the window or frame name. For example, if a variable called phoneNumber is
                        declared in a document, you can refer to this variable
                        from an iframe as parent.phoneNumber.

                    <p>
                        You can create a read-only, named constant with the const keyword. The syntax of a constant
                        identifier is the same as for a variable identifier: it must start with a letter, underscore or
                        dollar sign and can contain alphabetic, numeric, or underscore
                        characters.
                    </p>
                    <code>const PI = 3.14;</code>
                    <p>
                        A constant cannot change value through assignment or be re-declared while the script is running.
                        It
                        has to be initialized to a value.
                    </p>
                    <p>
                        The scope rules for constants are the same as those for let block scope variables. If the const
                        keyword is omitted, the identifier is assumed to represent a variable.
                    </p>
                    <p>
                        You cannot declare a constant with the same name as a function or variable in the same scope.
                        For
                        example:
                    </p>

                    <code>// THIS WILL CAUSE AN ERROR function f() {}; const f = 5; // THIS
                        WILL CAUSE AN ERROR ALSO function f() { const g = 5; var g;
                        //statements }</code> However, object attributes are not protected, so the following statement
                    is
                    executed without problems.
                    <code>const MY_OBJECT = {"key": "value"}; MY_OBJECT.key =
                        "otherValue";</code>

                    <p>
                        The latest ECMAScript standard defines seven data types:
                    </p>
                    <ul>
                        <li>
                            <p>Six data types that are primitives:</p>
                            <ul>
                                <li>
                                    Boolean. true and false.
                                </li>
                                <li>
                                    null. A special keyword denoting a null value. Because JavaScript is case-sensitive,
                                    null is not the same as Null, NULL, or any other variant.
                                </li>
                                <li>
                                    undefined. A top-level property whose value is undefined.

                                </li>
                                <li>
                                    Number. 42 or 3.14159.
                                </li>
                                <li>
                                    String. "Howdy"
                                </li>
                                <li>
                                    Symbol (new in ECMAScript 2015). A data type whose instances are unique and
                                    immutable.
                                </li>
                            </ul>
                        </li>
                        <li>
                            and Object
                        </li>
                    </ul>
                    Although these data types are a relatively small amount, they enable you to perform useful functions
                    with your applications. Objects and functions are the other fundamental elements in the language.
                    You
                    can think of objects as named containers for values,
                    and functions as procedures that your application can perform.F

                <article>
                    Use the if statement to execute a statement if a logical condition is true. Use the optional else
                    clause
                    to execute a statement if the condition is false. An if statement looks as follows:

                    <code>if (condition) { statement_1; } else { statement_2; }</code> condition can be any expression
                    that
                    evaluates to true or false. See Boolean for an explanation of what evaluates to true and false. If
                    condition evaluates to true, statement_1
                    is executed; otherwise, statement_2 is executed. statement_1 and statement_2 can be any statement,
                    including further nested if statements.
                    <p>
                        You may also compound the statements using else if to have multiple conditions tested in
                        sequence,
                        as follows:
                    </p>
                    <code>if (condition_1) { statement_1; } else if (condition_2) {
                        statement_2; } else if (condition_n) { statement_n; } else {
                        statement_last; }
                      </code> In the case of multiple conditions only the first logical condition which evaluates to
                    true
                    will be executed. To execute multiple statements, group them within a block statement ({ ... }) . In
                    general, it's good practice
                    to always use block statements, especially when nesting if statements:

                    <code>if (condition) { statement_1_runs_if_condition_is_true;
                        statement_2_runs_if_condition_is_true; } else {
                        statement_3_runs_if_condition_is_false;
                        statement_4_runs_if_condition_is_false; }</code> It is advisable to not use simple assignments
                    in a
                    conditional expression, because the assignment can be confused with equality when glancing over the
                    code. For example, do not
                    use the following code:
                    <code>if (x = y) { /* statements here */ }</code> If you need to use an assignment in a conditional
                    expression, a common practice is to put additional parentheses around the assignment. For example:

                    <code>if ((x = y)) { /* statements here */ }</code>

                <header>while statement</header>
                <article>
                    A while statement executes its statements as long as a specified condition evaluates to true. A
                    while
                    statement looks as follows:

                    <code>while (condition) statement</code> If the condition becomes false, statement within the loop
                    stops
                    executing and control passes to the statement following the loop.

                    <p>
                        The condition test occurs before statement in the loop is executed. If the condition returns
                        true,
                        statement is executed and the condition is tested again. If the condition returns false,
                        execution
                        stops and control is passed to the statement following
                        while.
                    </p>
                    <p>
                        To execute multiple statements, use a block statement ({ ... }) to group those statements.
                    </p>

                    Example

                    <p>
                        The following while loop iterates as long as n is less than three:
                    </p>

                    <code>var n = 0; var x = 0; while (n &lt; 3) { n++; x += n; }</code>
                    <p>
                        With each iteration, the loop increments n and adds that value to x. Therefore, x and n take on
                        the
                        following values:
                    </p>

                    <ul>
                        <li>After the first pass: n = 1 and x = 1</li>
                        <li>After the second pass: n = 2 and x = 3</li>
                        <li>After the third pass: n = 3 and x = 6</li>
                    </ul>
                    <p>
                        After completing the third pass, the condition n &lt; 3 is no longer true, so the loop
                        terminates.
                    </p>

            <section class="main-section" id="Function_declarations">
                <header>Function declarations</header>
                <article>
                    A function definition (also called a function declaration, or function statement) consists of the
                    function keyword, followed by:

                    <ul>
                        <li>
                            The name of the function.
                        </li>
                        <li>
                            A list of arguments to the function, enclosed in parentheses and separated by commas.
                        </li>
                        <li>
                            The JavaScript statements that define the function, enclosed in curly brackets, { }.
                        </li>
                    </ul>
                    <p>
                        For example, the following code defines a simple function named square:
                    </p>

                    <code>function square(number) { return number * number; }</code>
                    <p>
                        The function square takes one argument, called number. The function consists of one statement
                        that
                        says to return the argument of the function (that is, number) multiplied by itself. The return
                        statement specifies the value returned by the function.
                    </p>
                    <code>return number * number;</code>
                    <p>
                        Primitive parameters (such as a number) are passed to functions by value; the value is passed to
                        the
                        function, but if the function changes the value of the parameter, this change is not reflected
                        globally or in the calling function.

are you sure you are linking the right css file?

yes this is the name of my CSS document

In the freeCodeCamp editor? You can’t customize the file name there

Hey ILM, with all fCC projects I will write the code in my IDE then transfer the code from the IDE to fCC Editor when it’s time to submit. Do you think this is the reason why it’s not working?

if the html file doesn’t link to the correct css file, the css file will not be read.

you need to fix this line because the css file in the freeCodeCamp editor doesn’t have that name

thank you!!! I will name my stylesheets ‘styles.css’ from now on, that one mistake put me back 2 days lol, thank you once again friend
