Return true or Return false

javascript

Solution

Your function can be a lot simpler. Just return the boolean you get from the comparison:

function example(x, y) {
    return (x * y === 108);
}

As for how to make the alert box, I'd recommend not using alert boxes at all.

- If you want to show something to the user, use plain HTML, jQuery or similar.

- If you want to debug, use `console.log` or similar.

Alerts are highly annoying and prevent interaction with the page.

If for some reason you have to use an alert (for example, you're forced to debug on a system with no developer tools) then this will work just fine:

alert(example(2,3));

Problem

I am learning Javascript, and I am trying to go over everything I have learned so far. I am trying to figure out how to get a message back like an alert box when using the return statement. `alert(Example(2,3));` works, also making a gobal variable like this works. `var sum = Example(2,3); alert(sum);`. But I bet there are better ways then I can think of. ``` function Example(x, y) { if (x * y === 108) { return true; } else { return false; } } Example(2, 3); ```
