INSTRUCTIONS:
myVar should equal 10
myVar = myVar - 1; should be changed
Use the – operator on myVar
Do not change code above the line
ORIGINAL CODE:
var myVar = 11;
// Only change code below this line
myVar = myVar - 1;
MY SOLUTION:
var myVar = 11;
// Only change code below this line
myVar–
RESULTS:
All tests passed except for “myVar = myVar - 1; should be changed.” I did change it. Why isn’t the test passing?
Myvar = Myvar+1
That’s the same as saying Myvar +=1. Now how could you do that but minus?
You should only be modifying the line below and not adding any other code above or below this line.
myVar = myVar - 1;
Just change the above line to use the --
operator on myVar.
The code you posted shows two lines duplicate lines of:
var myVar = 11;
and you still have the original line of code which you were supposed to just modify (see below);
// Only change code below this line
myVar = myVar - 1;
Hi, Randell. I was just illustrating the original code and my solution. I didn’t combine them, nor did I add any code above the line.
This is my final solution, and it doesn’t pass the test “myVar = myVar - 1; should be changed.”
var myVar = 11;
// Only change code below this line
myVar–
I had trouble figuring out what you actually were using based on the information you posted.
Your latest posted code would pass if you put a semi-colon after the --
operator. If it does not pass, make sure you are using Chrome and not Edge or Safari.
I forgot the semicolon. Thanks, Randell.
