Hello @ijay!

Taking a look at your code, there are a few places that need to be edited for the exercise tests to pass.

  1. Your switch case has case as its argument, which won’t connect to anything. You need to change that value so that the right argument is inserted into the switch statement.

  2. Your statement for the “bet” output is not currently correct, as it will convert count from a number to “bet.” That needs to be changed as well.

  3. The console is probably not letting you test the code you’ve written because of the console.log you’ve added at the bottom. console.log is a function call, and therefore needs an argument inside parenthesis to work.

console.log(test());

For cases where you want to log multiple items, you can separate the parameters with commas or write multiple console.log statements.

console.log(test1(), test2());
OR
console.log(test1());
console.log(test2());

Hope this helps!
