Tell us what’s happening:

This should be the correct answer, I’m not sure what is wrong with the code here.

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 (contacts[i].firstName === name) {
      if (contacts[i].hasOwnProperty(prop)) {
        return contacts[i][prop];
      }
       else {
        return "No such property";
      }
    }
    return "No such contact";
  }
  // Only change code above this line
}

lookUpProfile("Akira", "likes");

when do you want to return No such contact?

I’m going to want to return that after all the other conditions are ran through which means completely out of the if blocks which I just realized it’s still inside the outer loop so I moved it below the bracket and got it to pass. I can’t believe that kept the entire function from running , lol! Thanks so much for the help!
