For this challenge, you will create a JavaScript game that simulates a fight between two characters.

The fight is composed of multiple rounds, which run repeatedly while both characters have health remaining. In each round, characters will take turns attacking each other. The game ends when one character's health falls below zero.

Project Guidelines

We recommend using Node.js to run JavaScript on your machine.
Fork this repository and implement the attackCharacter, runRound, and endGame() functions in fight.js.

Characters

Each character is represented by the Character class, where each character has properties for their name, health, attack and defense:

class Character {
  constructor(name, health, attack, defense) {
    this.name    = name;    // string
    this.health  = health;  // number
    this.attack  = attack;  // number
    this.defense = defense; // number
  }
}

var player = new Character('Edward Norton', 100, 25, 20);
var enemy  = new Character('Tyler Durden', 100, 25, 20);

Attacking

The character class also has a prototype function that allows an instantiated character to attack another character:

Character.prototype.attackCharacter = function(defender) {}

You will be implementing the attackCharacter prototype function. It accepts a Character object as the defender, and must satisfy these requirements:

It determines the base damage, equal to the difference between attacker's attack and the defenders defense.
It determines the random damage, equal to a random integer between 0 and 5, chosen using the Math library
It decrements the total damage from the defender's health
It logs <attackerName> does <totalDamage> damage to <defenderName> to the console

Example attackCharacter output:

Edward Norton does 7 damage to Tyler Durden

Rounds

In addition to the attackCharacter function, you must also implement the runRound function. The runRound function is the core component of the fight, and contains turn logic.

function runRound(round, p1, p2) {}

It accepts three arguments, the current round, and the two character objects.

The runRound function must satisfy the following requirements:

It logs ----- Round <round> ----- at the beginning of the round
It attacks p2 with p1
It attacks p1 with p2
It checks if the game has ended after each attack
It will log each player's health in the format <name> health: <health> at the end of the round

Example runRound output (including attackCharacter output):

----- Begin Round 13 -----
Edward Norton does 6 damage to Tyler Durden
Tyler Durden does 8 damage to Edward Norton
Edward Norton health: 9
Tyler Durden health: 4

Ending the game

Once a character is out of health, the endGame function is called:

function endGame(winner, loser) {}

The endGame function accepts two character objects, and logs end-of-game info to the console in the format:

======== GAME OVER ========
<winnerName> wins against <loserName> with <winnerHealth> health remaining!

Example endGame output:

======== GAME OVER ========
Edward Norton wins against Tyler Durden with 9 health remaining!
