javascript mission 3

[pmichaelh]

people are saying that you dont have to do the math, but im pretty sure that you do. make sure that you do it correctly. google it even or something. like everyone else has already said, you need to find the length of moo. that is what it is comparing, not the value of it.

Ok man, just let the JS do the mat, and look closer to the length

Lol I feel so stupid I had all the values figured out, but I was comparing password link to the length of moo...but then it just kinda hit me that I was looking at it slightly wrong

Hints:

1. Do not take the last part of code literally, length means nothing, just look at it as text.
2. Get the browser to do the work
ex. type this into the address bar

Code: Select all

javascript: var a=1+1; var b=a*2; alert(b)

you should get 4

I know th answer. I was actually directed to a page that straight out told me the password, but the thing is that there is that the html code linked to the "Check Password" box that tells you incorrect password no matter what you put in. I pretty sure you have to change something about it but I have no idea what specifically. If this helps anyone please tell me.

you know its funny .. i tried for about 30 min to get this.. its so simple .. its in plain site.. for everyone that checks this .. you NEED to pay attention to x.length.. and still do your math kids!!.. got to think.. x.LENGTH == MOO.. get moo and then keep an eye on length.

There are more than 999 answers. There are thousands.

yes i know... but i get moo = 11,75 i think something like that...
and if i type it, it says its wrong... o.O

You need to read up on JavaScript math, the standard math operations are completely different.
eg. % means division remainder... meaning that 78%8 = 6 (78/8 is 9 and 8X9 = 72 so 78 minus 72 is 6!)
If you need to know more, like what "==" means then click these links:

This is kind of a spoiler and I hope it doesn't confuse you.


Sar=5

If the length of Sar is 5, the password could be 11111 or ggggg or 15429 or etc.
