TheCoder semi-colons are optionnal in js... even if I don't like that and personnally I put semi-colon at end of all my statements ;) here I have just provided the minimal modification to OP code...

since mathematical operation do not involved addition, there's nothing wrong to let implicit casting works ;P

visph understood, awesome code! But once I didn't use semicolons then after a lot of lines without semicolons it said too many errors scanned 😅

that's not the lacks of semi-colons fault, but the code length and/or number of error already encountered wich could produce this behavior... ;)

Okay, thanks for the information! Wait wait wait... both of us forgot parseInt()! Change the value to an integer then it should work :) Edit: I ran the code without parseInt and it worked... BUT HOW? 🤯🤯🤯
