// Display the prompt dialogue while the value assigned to `secret` is not equal to "sesame"
let secret = prompt("What is the secret password?");
do {
secret = prompt(sesame);
}
// This should run after the loop is done executing
alert("You know the secret password. Welcome!");

231,172 PointsTo avoid confusion, please use whole words and sentences in your comments! But for now, I assume you meant "What do you mean?" and need a bit more explanation.
The structure of a "do ... while" loop is like this:
Your code above has the "do" but not the "while" with the condition. You still need to add that part. You may want to review this part of the video;
Then, "sesame" is not a defined keyword. The "prompt" inside the loop should have a question in quotes just like the original one. That word "sesame" will be used (in quotes) in the condition for the "while".
Finally, you won't need the first "prompt" anymore now that it will be done inside the loop. Just keep the variable definition.
