Tell us what’s happening:
Describe your issue in detail here.
if i have a property in an object and i can call on that property by simply doing the following for example.
let Dogcharacter= {
“Springer”: “Lively”;
“Terrier”: “Fiesty”;
“Bull dog”: “Lazy”:
}
if i want to call on Terrier character i would do return Dogcharacter.Springer. For this example i used return obj.checkProp to return the specific property but it kept failing, i then used return obj[checkProp] and it worked perfectly. Why didnt it work the obj.checkProp given that the .function and work the same?
Your code so far
function checkObj(obj, checkProp) {
// Only change code below this line
if (obj.hasOwnProperty(checkProp)) { return obj.checkProp} else{ return "Not Found"}
// Only change code above this line
}
