Hello, I think I have the right code but I can’t seem to solve the first part of the problem.
Would appreciate any feedback!
The function should check if name is an actual contact’s firstName and the given property (prop) is a property of that contact.
If both are true, then return the “value” of that property.
Your code so far
// Setup
const contacts = [
{
firstName: "Akira",
lastName: "Laine",
number: "0543236543",
likes: ["Pizza", "Coding", "Brownie Points"],
},
{
firstName: "Harry",
lastName: "Potter",
number: "0994372684",
likes: ["Hogwarts", "Magic", "Hagrid"],
},
{
firstName: "Sherlock",
lastName: "Holmes",
number: "0487345643",
likes: ["Intriguing Cases", "Violin"],
},
{
firstName: "Kristian",
lastName: "Vos",
number: "unknown",
likes: ["JavaScript", "Gaming", "Foxes"],
},
];
function lookUpProfile(name, prop) {
// Only change code below this line
for(let i = 0; i < contacts.length; i++) {
if(name === contacts[i].firstName && contacts[i].hasOwnProperty(prop)){
return contacts[i][prop];
} else if(name === contacts[i].firstName && !contacts[i].hasOwnProperty(prop)) {
return "No such property"
} else {
return "No such contact"
}
}
// Only change code above this line
}
lookUpProfile("Akira", "likes");
