Tell us what’s happening:
I have been having trouble with this specific problem for about 1.5 week. After coming back to it via several different angles, I finally decided to check the hints, which were a description of exactly what I was doing. Looking at the solutions just made me more desperate (/lh), because I realized it was very similar code. Finally, I resorted to copying the solution code to the letter, and I still didn’t pass the tests.
Given that, I think it’s pretty safe to assume that this is somehow a browser problem, but I don’t know for sure. Did anyone have a similar problem?? Is there some fault in my code that I just can’t see?? Any help is appreciated!
Your code so far
// Setup
const recordCollection = {
2548: {
albumTitle: 'Slippery When Wet',
artist: 'Bon Jovi',
tracks: ['Let It Rock', 'You Give Love a Bad Name']
},
2468: {
albumTitle: '1999',
artist: 'Prince',
tracks: ['1999', 'Little Red Corvette']
},
1245: {
artist: 'Robert Palmer',
tracks: []
},
5439: {
albumTitle: 'ABBA Gold'
}
};
// Only change code below this line
function updateRecords(records, id, prop, value) {
if (value = "") {
delete records[id][prop];
} else if (prop !== "tracks" && value !== "") {
records[id][prop] = value;
} else if (prop === "tracks" && value !== "") {
if (records[id].hasOwnProperty("tracks") === false) {
records[id][prop] = [];
}
records[id][prop].push(value);
}
return records;
}
updateRecords(recordCollection, 5439, 'artist', 'ABBA');
