#1

Tell us what’s happening:
I am stuck, when I run my code I am getting msg : a should be assigned to b with=. I am pretty sure that is what I’ve done or am I missing something

Your code so far


// Setup
var a;
a = 7;
var b;

// Only change code below this line
b = 7;
a = b;

you have too many lines, you need only one line doing this:

Assign the contents of a to variable b .

also remember that the assignment happens from right to left

#3

yo dont need b=7 line

#4

I had a = b; only as my first answer but then I got this when I run the test
b should have a value of 7.
a should be assigned to b with =.
That is why I added the b = 7; line

#5

you have assigned b to a

#6

Thank you, It was the right to left issue

#7

You are doing it wrong . you are assigning b to a not a to b . The answer is this b = a;
