— Hello, im starting with javascript

— 

function calcular() {
while repeticion > 0 {
document.write (palabra)
var repeticion() = (repeticion -1)
}
}

— Which is the problem here? (the variables are previously defined )

— A whole bunch of syntax errors

— Can you help?😔

— 

/* Predefined:
repeticion
palabra
*/
function calcular() {
  while(repeticion > 0) {
    document.write(palabra);
    repeticion = repeticion - 1;
  }
}

— Thanks
Its obvious i started with python xD

— 1. parentheses around while-condition (while (condition) { block })
2. document.write is bad
3. Don't use var for something that is already defined, just use it like x = y
4. No need for parentheses around (repeticion - 1), you can remove them
5. Why parentheses after the name of the variable?
