Help! My Calculator Display Function Isn’t Recognized

Asked By CuriousCoder99 On

I'm a total newbie to coding and currently working on a calculator for a school project. I'm stuck because the display function keeps giving me the error "display is not defined," even though I've set it up in my code. Here's a snippet of my HTML structure: I have an input box for the output and buttons to input numbers and operations. I've also included a JavaScript script where I define the display function, but it seems something's off. I'm using this script for the display: `function display('1') { print(value) }`. Can anyone help me figure out what's wrong?

You're definitely heading in the right direction! First off, it looks like you've mixed up how to use the script tag. If your JavaScript is in a separate file, you should use it like this: ``. But if you want to write the code directly in the script tag, just leave out the `src` attribute, like so: ` ...your code... `. Also, for the `display` function, it should take a variable as a parameter, not a string like you've got now. Change it to `function display(value) { print(value) }`. Just a heads up, `print()` might not work the way you think it does, but you’ll get it sorted out!

Thanks for the tip! But that didn’t really solve my issue... 🙁
