Prompt exercise

<Below this line, in what way does your code behave incorrectly? Include ALL error messages.>
I wrote a .js file included the prompt command. But I got a “ReferenceError: prompt is not defined” Error after running it using Node.js. Could you please tell me what causes this error? Or what library is needed.

```

The code is shown below:
prompt(“What’s your name?”);
