Please Help Detect The Error In The Code by johnhood(op): 12:20am On Nov 17, 2020

Please I'm a novice in programming.
My main aim of the JavaScript snippet below is I want to declare a global function and use the value for my second function but when I ran the code it did not work. Please I appreciate if someone can point out the error for me.

function fun1() {var n=6.7569;
var ns=n.toFixed(2 );}
function fun2() {var t=prompt.window("what is your number?" );
var ps=document.getElementById("ut2" ).innerHTML=t*fun1()}; }

Where did you dig out the tutorial you're following?
"var" in 2020?
Besides, you didn't even paste the error message you're receiving . .
and also do well, to send a screenshot of the entire code block invoking the functions

The irony is that let still converts to var , when you check the ES5 code

True, not just "let", all ES6+ keywords/expressions will be transpiled , but at least to keep your sanity intact,
you'd want to keep up with ECMA grin

I am confused. "var" is for variable.

2errors

1. it is window.prompt not prompt.windoww

2, you have to add return ns in fun1

oga, he said he is a beginner, how is he going to know the difference between bar and let if he doesn't try them out?

As a beginner, if you are learning how to code, you should be posting queries or question to `stackoverflow`. That is the platform for developers (experienced and novice).
