here are the things im confused about:

1. On line 1, why does the () remain empty?

2. On line 5, setting getToDaChoppa to false is what prevents the infinite loop?

3. On lines 8 and 10 I simply do not understand what purpose those lines of code serve

line 1: functions accept parameters, do something, and optionally return a result. in this example, no parameters are needed.
line 5: yes. it will repeat the action until the while condition is false
line 10: comment out the line and run your code. see what happens. lines 1 through 9 simply define the function. it will not actually get executed. line 10 is what executes it.

i edited out line 10 and the code still passed except line 4 wasnt executed onto the console. ok i understand your explanations ty

I don't see a link to code or anything :'(

if it makes you feel any better, i'm going through code academy with a friend now for JS.

your question #3 was answered in "Introduction to Functions" 2/18
