<h3>Basic Math and String Operations</h3>
<h4>4 Tasks for this Practice Set:</h4>
<ol>
<li>
Write a script to add two numbers and output the sum to the console</li><li>
Write a script that prompts for input, adds one to whatever number was input and outputs the sum to the console. Use the increment operator. Assume that the input will be a number (no type-checking is required for this exercise).
</li><li>
Look up the Math object, and use one of its methods to do <i>something</i> to a number and output the result to the console (you pick: square it, round a decimal number up or down, do a trig function...whatever) Make sure the you comment your code or use console output to describe what you’re doing.
</li><li>
Prompt for input and assign the result to a variable. Then, look up the String object, and use one of its properties to output the length of the string variable to the console.
</li>
</ol>
JavaScript
// Insert your code for #1 here
function addTwoNumbers(num1, num2){
return num1 + num2;
}
console.log(addTwoNumbers(1, 2));
// Insert your code for #2 here
function promptAndAdd(){
var p = prompt("Please type number to increment by 1.");
if (p != null){
console.log(++p);
}
}
//promptAndAdd();
// Insert your code for #3 here
function useMathObject(){
// console log a random number
console.log(Math.random());
}
useMathObject();
// Insert your code for #4 here
function promptAndUseProperty(){
var p = prompt("Input a string to get its length.");
if (p != null){
console.log(p.length);
}
}
promptAndUseProperty();
