This is a simple game where you're given a letter and you have to guess its index number.
- In
Guesser.js, define a function calledletterGuesser. - Inside your function, create an array of letters from "a" to "z" and save this array to a variable.
- Using
Math.random(), generate a random number between 0 and the length of your alphabet array. Save this number to a variable. - Use that random number as an index to select the correlating letter from your alphabet array.
- Using string interpolation and
prompt(), inform the user what letter they have received, ask the user to guess the letter's index number, and save that guess to a variable. - Make sure the guess's data type is a number!
- Use conditional logic to check if the user's guess matches the actual index of the random letter. If it does, use
alert()to tell them that they're a genius at the alphabet; if it doesn't match, tell them that they need to learn their ABCs and use string interpolation to give them the correct answer. - Call
letter_guesser. - Save your work, go to the browser, and refresh to run the file you just created.
The result should look something like this:
Your letter is c. Guess c's index number.

You definitely know the alphabet!
Prompt: Your letter is z. Guess z's index number.

incorrect, you will have to re-learn the abc's. The index of z is actually 25.
