You should return the ‘obj’ function parameter’s value, not the function from inside itself.:

`return checkObj[checkProp];`

Also, the ‘If’ statement should check if the ‘obj’ has its own property, not the function:

@shamah

if (checkObj.hasOwnProperty(checkProp))

[shamah]

how should it be i am not getting anything still

[JeremyLT]

What did you try to fix ?

@shamah

obj, checkProp

These are the only two variables you need to use.

Maybe if you analyze the following example, you will get closer to the real issue in your code:

This is just guidance.
