This is how I approached the challenge! Can you give me advice to improve my coding?
Thanks

function avalancheRisk(snowDepth, slope) {

  const depth =[/*depth array*/];
  const getIndexDepth =// get the index of  snowDepth in depth

  const slopeObject = //  {"Gentle":[/*risk*/]  ....}
  
  const risk = slopeObject[slope][getIndexDepth];
  return risk;
}

You can use ternary operator

function avalancheRisk(snowDepth, slope) {
  return snowDepth == 'Shallow' || slope == 'Gentle' ? 'Safe' : 'Risky';
}

I don’t have conditions(if(){}else(){}) in my solution just indexOf() then map it to return the risk, In what part I needed to use the ternary operator? , thank you !

Hi @joseephraimbatacan

@gonza is showing an example of using the ternary operator for the coding challenge. There are many ways to solve this challenge.

Which part of your approach do you need help with?

Happy coding
