Your answer is almost perfect. Just remove the alert line.
Happy coding :)

It doesn't work because you're confusing CREATING a function and CALLING a function.
When you create it, you need to tell javascript >>> function nameOfTheFunction(argument1, argument2){ ...what the function is doing and returning... }
When you calling it, javascript know it's name so just >>> nameOfTheFunction(argument1, argument2);
and it will execute your code based on how you created it.
Hope it helps.
