Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Student 1,794 PointsSolution but not happy with it
It gets the job done but seeing the video on how the instructor did it vs how I did it, makes me feel like I am not understanding and therefore not able to use methods that we learned about. Having real trouble keeping the possibilities in arms reach.
const qATest = [
['What color is the moon?', 'white'],
['When was Einstein born?', '1879'],
['What is the name of the crypto sock business?', 'sockhodler'],
['Will we ever become a true programmer?', 'yes']
];
// 2. Store the number of questions answered correctly
let answerCorrect = 0;
let right = '';
let wrong = '';
for ( let i = 0; i < qATest.length; i++ ){
const questions = prompt(qATest[i][0]);
if (questions.toLowerCase() === qATest[i][1]) {
answerCorrect++;
right += `<li>${qATest[i][0]}</li>`;
}else if (questions.toLowerCase() != qATest[i][1]){
wrong += `<li>${qATest[i][0]}</li>`;
}
}
document.querySelector('main').innerHTML = `
<h1>You got ${answerCorrect} question(s) correct</h1>
<h2> You got these questions right:</h2>
<ol>
${right}
</ol>
<h2> You got these questions wrong:</h2>
<ol>
${wrong}
</ol>

The instructor's use of arrays and functions makes the code a bit more compact and modular, but your code still meets every stated objective. Employing the other concepts will come with practice and/or more explicit directions.
For this challenge I'd say, job well done!
