Tell us what’s happening:

My code is not passing the below 2 tests. Please help. I want to know where I a going wrong in my code. I have checked solutions to this code but I specifically want to know why my code is not working. Appreciate you support.

  • Cards Sequence 2, J, 9, 2, 7 should return the string 1 Bet

  • Cards Sequence 2, 2, 10 should return the string 1 Bet

Your code so far

let count = 0;

function cc(card) {
switch (card){
case 2:
count += 1
return count + ' Bet';
break;
case 3:
count += 1
return count + ' Bet';
break;
case 4:
count += 1
return count + ' Bet';
break;
case 5:
count += 1
return count + ' Bet';
break;
case 6:
count += 1
return count + ' Bet';
break;
case 7:
count += 0
return count + ' Hold';
break;
case 8:
count += 0
return count + ' Hold';
break;
case 9:
count += 0
return count + ' Hold';
break;
case 10:
count = count -1;
return count + ' Hold';
break;
case 'J':
count = count -1;
return count + ' Hold';
break;
case 'Q':
count = count -1;
return count + ' Hold';
break;
case 'K':
count = count -1;
return count + ' Hold';
break;
case 'A':
count = count -1;
return count + ' Hold';
break;
}
}

cc(2); cc(3); cc(7); cc('K'); cc('A');

The return value is not based upon the value of the card but rather the value of the count
