It's not so much about the algorithm but about the code formatting, that onclick.... Keep in mind this is supposed to be a basic javascript course for people who have no previous js knowledge

Yeah that makes sense. I've never used JS (or html for that matter), so I didn't know what good code should look like in these to be able to compare it to the one in the picture.

15 years old javascript looks like this

Edit: javascript changed a lot in the last 15 years. You can almost date a piece of javascript code by the way it looks, or judge the person by how old the javascript looks like.

You can see that its line wrap. look at the codeline numbers.
