Research direction

Start with JS Lesson 3 and its two exercises, then locate the separately downloaded gist code and the referenced script.js files. Check how the lesson currently places JavaScript and teaches keyup; done means both exercises place the script at the end of the body and teach input instead where appropriate.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Not a PR as it's some gist code with separate download.

It would be useful to move js from head to end of the body as that's one less thing to explain to the student at this point why something works in console and not inside script.js.

And it's same story for both exercises.

Another story is that teaching people about keyup event which only sort of does the right thing is probably counterproductive nowadays. input event is going to cause a lot fewer issues.
