- What does the function parseInt() do?? This problem doesn’t seem to care if you omit that function and just call the prompt variable “age.” Why the parseInt() in the answer key?

Why is there a parseFloat() in the answer key on this one? What does that mean? I see they discuss parse in chapter 11 but I still don’t quite understand it

What am I doing wrong?
parseFloat is an internal method of JavaScript to convert a number to float number type (float numbers are those who have decimals, like 11.3).
parseInt is the same but convert a number into Integer (no decimals, just fixed range like 11)
In your code you are calculating the amount of passengers incorrectly in terms of syntax.
console.log( "the bus is full, " + passengers + station - 30, " have to walk")
The operation should be inside ().
console.log( "the bus is full, " + (passengers + station - 30), " have to walk")
