javascript - Unexpected token else, not a semicolon after if statement -

trying write rock paper scissors game, using codecademy learn. i've seen lot of people talking error , being related using semicolon after if statement don't know if i'm missing or it's different. here's code, it's little weird understand (and least me), you'll see didn't

var compare = function(choice1, choice2) {     if(choice1 === choice2) {         return "the result tie!";     }     else if(choice1 === "rock") {         if(choice2 === "scissors") {             return "rock wins";         }         else {             return "paper wins";         }     else if(choice1 === "paper") {           if (choice2 === "rock") {             return "paper wins";         }         else {             return "scissors wins";         }     } }; } 

try removing } @ end of code (line 21) , place on line 12 instead.

fixed code:

var compare = function(choice1, choice2) {     if(choice1 === choice2) {         return "the result tie!";     }     else if(choice1 === "rock") {         if(choice2 === "scissors") {             return "rock wins";         }         else {             return "paper wins";         }     }     else if(choice1 === "paper") {           if (choice2 === "rock") {             return "paper wins";         }         else {             return "scissors wins";         }     } };
