function golfScore(par, strokes) {
// Only change code below this line
if (strokes = 1) {
  return names[0];
}
else if (strokes <= par - 2) {
  return names[1];
}
else if (strokes === par-1) {

Link to the challenge:

That’s an assignment operator: that line could be read as ‘assign the value 1 to the variable “strokes”’.

You want to compare value, you can do it either comparing value with == or comparing value and type with ===

Hope this helps.
