Basic JavaScript - Returning Boolean Values from Functions

[fsulun]

Tell us what’s haActually there is a very simple answer and everything is as it should be for the answer. But I can’t get past this question. I don’t know if it’s my answer or the system.ppening:
Describe your issue in detail here.

Your code so far

function isLess(a, b) {
  // Only change code below this line
  function isLess(a, b) {
    return a < b;
  
  }

  
  // Only change code above this line
}
isLess(10, 15);

@fsulun

  function isLess(a, b) {
    return a < b;
  
  }

Why did you declare the function inside of the function?

[fsulun]

Because without it there is no response. I have tried many times without “function”, the console test result is positive but it does not progress.

[JeremyLT]

I’m not sure what you mean by ‘no response’ exactly?

There is no return value when you do put the function definition inside of a function definition.

Using the function keyword and the exact same function name inside of a function definition is a huge red flag.

@fsulun

function isLess(a, b) {
  // Only change code below this line
  function isLess(a, b) {

[fsulun]

Console and code screenshot attached. There is no progress.

[JeremyLT]

You still have the same problem - you are now declaring isLess inside of isLess without using the function keyword.

Why did you type isLess? Its already there once. It doesn’t need to be there twice.

[fsulun]

There are no other clues. I’ve done a lot of research. I’ve worked for hours without a clue.

[JeremyLT]

Here is a clue:

@JeremyLT

Why did you type isLess? Its already there once. It doesn’t need to be there twice.

Did you try not typing isLess twice?

There isn’t anything asking you to type what you have on line 3. Delete it.

:))
I just tried it. Life is full of surprises.
After your guidance I thought like this;
If there is no “function” and “ifElse”, there is no (a, b).
Thank you very much for your support.
Thank you very much.

Congrats!

Note - you should share your actual code, not a screenshot!
