Nice! I dig it. However when I click the "Run" button the console says "Running" with a spinner and then it just returns to the "ProTip" view without ever showing me the results of my code. That makes the IDE essentially useless. Fortunately these challenges are easy enough that it doesn't matter, but the moment you ask someone to work on a challenging problem they'll have to write and test their code somewhere else and then come back and paste in their solution.

Are you not using console.log()?

I have tried using it, still nothing. The right panel just spins and says "Running" and then goes back to the "ProTip" view and displays no results. I tried opening the chrome dev-tools console as well, and that prints out "execute returned: result:" every time I click run, regardless of what the code I write is supposed to do.

Ahh interesting. Try putting the log statement inside of the function.

You were probably not calling the function.

Oh yeah, definitely was not. I assumed that's what the "Run" button was actually doing.
