JavaScript Syntax Error or More? -


i extremely new (read 3 hours old) amateur javascript have extremely low level question. thought offer great chance explore stackoverflow community. have run through approx 50% of codeacademy javascript intro , finished section on while , loops. on free practice section decided try , write program simulate coin flip 1,000 times , report results user. program seems run ok on line 9 seeing hint syntax wrong introduce if/else statement. see if answer "no" runs anyways. wrong syntax , other general feedback have on first independent program? thanks!

var userready = prompt("are ready me flip coin 1 thousand times?");  var flipcount = 0;  var heads = 0;  var tails = 0;  if (userready = "yes" || "yes") {     flipcount++;     while (flipcount <= 1000) {         var coinface = math.floor(math.random() * 2);         if (coinface === 0) {             heads++;             flipcount++;         } else {             tails++;             flipcount++;         }      }  } else {     confirm("ok we'll try again in second.");     var userready = prompt("are ready now?"); }   confirm("num of heads" + " " + heads); confirm("num of tails" + " " + tails); 

var userready = prompt("are ready me flip coin 1 thousand times?");    var flipcount = 0;    var heads = 0;    var tails = 0;    if (userready = "yes" || "yes") {    flipcount++;    while (flipcount <= 1000) {      var coinface = math.floor(math.random() * 2);      if (coinface === 0) {        heads++;        flipcount++;      } else {        tails++;        flipcount++;      }      }    } else {    confirm("ok we'll try again in second.");    var userready = prompt("are ready now?");  }      confirm("num of heads" + " " + heads);  confirm("num of tails" + " " + tails);

this line:

if (userready = "yes" || "yes") {

does not expect to. first, cannot use = compare values (it means assignment in javascript). can use ===. second, || joins 2 independent conditions, not values. can write:

if (userready === "yes" || userready === "yes") {

additionally, can cover case user types yes or yes normalising case of user input before comparison:

if (userready.tolowercase() === "yes") {
