Adding const prompt = require('prompt-sync')(); to the very beginning of the program fixed it for me.

In case you were wondering, prompt isn’t a function in Node.js (since prompt in browsers makes a popup, but Node.js is a server so it can’t do popups).

Basically the “requisition” of the module in the solution adds custom functionality for the prompt function, making it ask the question in the console.
