Spaces

Please let me know what you guys think and also how the flow is ..

I need some thought on how I can get better and how I can properly add spaces in between the the sentence.

//prompt comands//

var name = prompt("Tell me your name"); var adjective = prompt("Give me an adjective"); var noun = prompt("Give me a noun"); var verb = prompt("Give me a verb"); alert("We are all set. Ready for the story");

//Story//

var storyMaker = "Once upon a time we had the hero of the story named " + name + "The hero of the story really likes to " + verb; storyMaker += "The hero rushed too see the" + noun + "because of the" + adjective;

document.write(storyMaker);

You just need to include the spaces in the literal strings. You may also want to throw in some punctuation and line breaks:

var storyMaker = "Once upon a time we had the hero of the story named " + name + ".<br>";
storyMaker += "The hero of the story really likes to " + verb + ".<br>";
storyMaker += "The hero rushed too see the " + noun + " because of the " + adjective + ".<br>";

Oh wow so you can add the <br> just as HTML. Cool.

Other than that do you think the code looks organized and clean?

It's hard to tell with it unformatted. When posting code, use the instructions for code formatting in the Markdown Cheatsheet pop-up below the "Add an Answer" area. :arrow_heading_down:   Or watch this video on code formatting.

But this program is perhaps a bit too small to serve as a good example of organization.
